Abstract An article is devoted to the study of the strength properties of interlayer adhesion and determination of Young's modulus by the ball instrumental indentation method for samples, made of various plastics using additive technology under normal conditions. This production method is chosen as the most appropriate for creating lightly stressed parts of complex geometry (up to 30 MPa) in the shortest possible time. One of the possible options for such products is full-size centrifugal wheels layouts of low power gas turbine units (up to 250 kW) for testing them in model conditions. It will ensure the work of the material in the elastic zone. The samples are considered, obtained by FDM method from various polymers such as: acrylonitrile butadiene styrene thermoplastic resin (ABS+), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene thermoplastic resin with addition of carbon fibers (ABS Carbon), nylon with addition of carbon fibers (Nylon Super Carbon), polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG) and a compound based on polylactide (PLA HP). Plastics, made by this method, have anisotropic properties. Therefore, in this work, the strength characteristics of the test samples interlayer adhesion under tension are determined.

Purpose This paper aims to study strength properties and accuracy of a new type of composites, in which matrix is manufactured additively, whereas infill is a polyurethane resin. The process of manufacturing these composites is invented and patented by authors. Design/methodology/approach The authors developed a method of manufacturing composites, which was then used to build samples for tensile and bending tests (according to ISO 572 and ISO 178 standards), as well as measurements of accuracy. Findings It was found that the method of composite manufacturing designed by the authors allows obtaining both stronger and cheaper parts in comparison with the traditional acrylonitrile butadiene styrene FDM parts. Research limitations/implications The research was limited to static tests only, and no dynamic tests were performed on the manufactured samples. The accuracy analysis is only a basic one. Practical implications Developed method allows to shorten the FDM process with simultaneous decrease of costs (in professional processes) and increase of strength of obtained products. Originality/value Application of composite materials presented in the paper will significantly expand possibilities of using FDM method to manufacture functional, strong parts able to carry higher loads. Application of different combinations of thermoplastic matrix materials with different resin infills will allow to control properties of obtained composites. The solution is currently subject of a patent.

<p>3D printing is one of the additive manufacturing technology that has gain popularity for time saving and complex design. This technology increases a degree of flexibility for potential 3D RF applications such as wearable and conformal antennas. This paper demonstrates a circular patch antenna fabricated on 3D printed Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) filament. The main reason of using a 3D printer is that it is accurate, easy to fabricate of a complex geometry and the ability to create new antennas that cannot be made using conventional fabrication techniques. The ABS material has a tangent loss of 0.0051 and the relative permittivity is 2.74. The thickness of the substrate is 1.25 mm. The simulation has been performed using Computer Simulation Technology (CST). The return loss from simulation software is in good match with measurement which is 12.5dB at 2.44GHz. Hence, from the results obtained, the ABS could be used as a substrate for an antenna.</p>

Acrylonitrile is a key precursor in the production of a wide range of products in the chemical industries. The major products of acrylonitrile include acrylonitrile butadiene styrene resin, acrylic fibers, and adiponitrile. The demand for the roduction of acrylonitrile is affected by the global economy but because of the development of living standards; the demand for producing acrylonitrile and its derivations are significantly increasing. So in 2016, China alone produced 32% of the world’s acrylonitrile, and its production is expected to have a 55% increase in 2021. Acrylonitrile and its derivations have wide applications in different industries like car manufacturing, electronics, aerospace, and textile. Considering the importance of the acrylonitrile precursor in the current world, in this study, we discuss and investigate its production processes, the obtained copolymers, and polyacrylonitrile production and its application in the carbon fibers and compare it with other carbon fiber precursors such as mesophase pitch and cellulose. We also focus on its marketing in the world.

Utilizing agro-waste material such as rice husk (RH) and coco peat (CP) reinforced with thermoplastic resin to produce low-cost green composites is a fascinating discovery. In this study, the effectiveness of these blended biocomposites was evaluated for their physical, mechanical, and thermal properties. Initially, the samples were fabricated by using a combination of melt blend internal mixer and injection molding techniques. Increasing in RH content increased the coupons density. However, it reduced the water vapor kinetics sorption of the biocomposite. Moisture absorption studies disclosed that water uptake was significantly increased with the increase of coco peat (CP) filler. It showed that the mechanical properties, including tensile modulus, flexural modulus, and impact strength of the 15% RH—5% CP reinforced acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), gave the highest value. Results also revealed that all RH/CP filled composites exhibited a brittle fracture manner. Observation on the tensile morphology surfaces by using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) affirmed the above finding to be satisfactory. Therefore, it can be concluded that blend-agriculture waste reinforced ABS biocomposite can be exploited as a biodegradable material for short life engineering application where good mechanical and thermal properties are paramount.

This paper presents the influence of the grinding percentage on some electrical properties, when the process of injection is used in the production of technical commodities, made of polyamide 6.6 (PA 6.6), polyoxymethylene (POM) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), for different industries. The specimens produced had the following compositions: new material 100%, new material 80% + grinding 20%, new material 60% + grinding 40%, new material 40% + grinding 60%, new material 20% + grinding 80% and 100% grinding. The measurement of the electrical properties was carried out using the methods for the determination of relative permittivity and of the dielectric dissipation factor, with the method of zero by Schering bridge. It was found that increasing the percentage of grinding in samples, from 0% to 100%, determined a slight increase in the values of relative permittivity at all three polymers tested and the increase of measurement frequencies for acrylonitrile butadiene styrene and polyoxymethylene led to insignificant changes in the values of relative permittivity, while in the case of polyamide, increasing the measurement frequency led to a slight decrease in the values of relative permittivity. It was also found that increasing the proportion of grinding in the specimens, from 0% to 100%, determined a slight increase in the values of the dielectric dissipation factor in the case of polyamide and polyoxymethylene, while in the case of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene increasing the percentage of grinding in the samples resulted in insignificant changes. The increase in the measurement frequencies for the three tested polymers resulted in a decrease in the values of the dielectric dissipation factor.

Owing to the huge demand and dependency of the industry on the lightweight and superior mechanical properties products as well as components, the materials like CF-ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene reinforced with carbon fibers) and PC-ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene reinforced with polycarbonate) have gained utmost importance in the current scenario. The present research in this paper focuses on finding the mechanical properties, mainly the tensile, compression, and flexural properties of both the above-said materials. FDM (Fused Deposition Modelling) is used as the printing technique in this research as it is the most suitable and widely used for the selected materials. After experimentation, a comparison was made between the two materials, and it is found that the PC-ABS material is stronger in compression, tension as well as in flexural at all the parametric settings. The infill percentage was observed to be proportional to the strength of the material as expected. Triangular infill geometry was more strong in compression and flexural whereas grid infill geometry was strong in tension. produced stronger mechanical properties were observed for 0-degree raster angle in all the three criteria compared to the 45 and 90-degree raster angles. When the variation of the strength of the material with the infill geometry was observed, the infill geometry was more sensitive in compression and flexural compared to that in tension. The load vs. displacement curves have been plotted to depict the maximum load and the behavior of the material in the elastic and plastic regions.
