Authors Kirill S. Erokhin, Evgeniy G. Gordeev, and Valentine P. Ananikov, researchers from Zelinsky Institute of Organic Chemistry, Russian Academy of Sciences, delve into a new level of 3D printing science, outlined in the recently published ‘ Revealing interactions of layered polymeric materials at solid-liquid interface for building solvent compatibility charts for 3D printing applications .’

 .

Strength and stability in 3D printed parts is an ongoing area of refinement for users today, and researchers have performed a multitude of experiments on materials to figure out how to get better results, creating new algorithms , studying causes and effects on porosity , and ways to eliminate structural defects . This study is centered around the effects of chemicals, however, as the authors evaluate how thermoplastics respond to a variety of solvents. While there are the obvious challenges in creating nearly any kind of part or prototype, the benefits can be […]
