Additive Manufacturing In 3D Polymers - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Additive Manufacturing In 3D Polymers by Usha Bano presents a focused technical perspective on additive manufacturing and the use of polymeric materials in three-dimensional fabrication. The book addresses a subject positioned at the intersection of manufacturing engineering, polymer technology, materials science, product development, and 3D printing. Additive manufacturing builds physical components through the controlled addition of material, making polymer-based processes an important area for prototyping, component development, customized production, and advanced manufacturing.

The subject of polymer additive manufacturing encompasses both the behavior of polymer materials and the processing principles that determine the quality and performance of printed parts. Polymer feedstocks can be processed through technologies such as material extrusion, fused deposition modeling or fused filament fabrication, vat photopolymerization, material jetting, and polymer powder-bed processes. Different polymer systems exhibit distinct thermal, mechanical, rheological, and processing characteristics, making material selection an important consideration in additive manufacturing. Common materials associated with polymer 3D printing include PLA, ABS, polyamide or nylon, polycarbonate, PET-based materials, thermoplastic elastomers, and photopolymer resins
