Both acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and polyethylene terephthalate glycol-modified (PETG) are thermoplastics used in 3D printing, often with high-temperature printers. They can both handle their fair share of stress and strain, can be recycled, and are both susceptible to moisture—although ...
Ceramic:Ceramics have properties that can withstand extreme pressure and temperature without warping or breaking. It’s less likely to get corroded and doesn’t easily wear away thus giving it an edge over metals and plastics. They are popular for high-precision works and provide smooth, glossy ...
PETG As the name suggests, this plastic is related to the polyethylene terephthalate of water and soda bottles but modified with glycol, hence the added “G.” It has high strength and flexibility, and when compared to the more widely used PLA, it has good temperature resistance. ...
Materials for FDM include polymers such as ABS, PLA, PETG and PEI, which the machine feeds as threads through a heated nozzle. To operate an FDM machine, you first load a spool of this thermoplastic filament into the printer. Once the nozzle hits the desired temperature, the printer feeds...
This systematic review interrogates the literature to understand what is known about the environmental sustainability of fused filament fabrication, FFF (also known as fused deposition modeling, FDM), based on life cycle assessment (LCA) results. Since s

SLS processis different from SLA in many ways. It uses a box of polymer powder which is heated until the temperature reaches just below the melting point of the material. The printer’s roller deposits around a 0.1mm thick coat of powder on the build platform. ...
