This work presents measurement results of pollutants generated during 3D printing. The measure of pollutants is the concentration of particulate matter with a diameter of up to 2.5 μm (PM2,5). Materials acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), polyactide (PLA) for a 3D printer and low-cost particulate matter concentration sensors PMS3003, PMS7003 were used in the research. Research results show that  low-cost sensors can be useful for monitoring pollution during 3D printing in offices, laboratories or private homes.

Butadiene Styrene

Additive and subtractive manufacturing of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) were employed for fabricating samples. The Additive manufacturing was represented through 3D printing, whereas subtractive manufacturing carried out by Turning. Some developments have been applied for enhancing the performance of the 3D printer. Tribological measurements of the turned and 3D printed specimens have been achieved. Studying the difference between static and dynamic friction factors and the examination of wear values were included. A comparison of the tribological behaviour of the turned and 3D printed ABS polymer has been investigated.

Matter Concentration

Whether due to traffic, industry or private households – particulate matter enters our air every day and pollutes the air we breathe. When the term air pollution is used, hardly anyone ever thinks of the air inside their own home. However, many urban residences are located in the immediate vicinity of busy roads with high concentrations of particulate matter. Consequently, the outside concentration of fine dust has considerable influence on the indoor concentration. Given the fact that many people spend more than 90 % of their lifetime indoors, it is important to measure and understand particle transport from the outside to the inside in order to assess the effects of exposure to outdoor particles on human health. A two-room apartment near a main road in Leverkusen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany was used in the investigation in this research project. Particulate matter concentrations for PM2.5 and PM10 were measured simultaneously inside and outside of the building. Results are size-specific deposition rates, indoor/outdoor ratios and infiltration factors, which provide information on the relationship between internal and external concentrations and the associated health consequences. The particulate matter concentration was measured using low-cost PM-sensors, which were developed and calibrated within the scope of this research project.

Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) was modified by aluminum oxide (AL2O3), talcum powder, kaolin and CaCO3. ABS samples were printed by 3D printer after the ABS silk was made. Then the mechanical properties, morphology, melt flow rate were studied in this article. AL2O3 has the best enhancement effect on ABS than other particles, and the melt flow rate was improved when content of AL2O3 less than 10%.

A stationary and mobile device based on a low-cost dust sensor (Plantower PMS7003) was used to study particulate matter (PM) concentration in Miskolc. The stationary device was placed at the automatic monitoring station of the National Air Quality Measurement Network (OLM) in Martintelep, Miskolc. The mobile device was used to walk 4 streets along a square route with a total length of 800 m. Measurements were made on two days (September 9 and 11) between 7am and 9am, which according to preliminary experience coincided with the morning rush hour. The access route includes the OLM monitoring station, a busy road, two bypasses, a parking lot, and a smaller roadway blocked by traffic. The measured PM1, PM2.5, PM10 concentrations of the mobile device were interpolated on a circuit-by-circuit basis in ArcGIS, and conclusions were drawn for the area. The concentration of stationary and mobile devices was compared.

Deployment of low-cost sensors in the field is increasingly popular. However, each sensor requires on-site calibration to increase the accuracy of the measurements. We established a laboratory method, the Average Slope Method, to select sensors with similar response so that a single, on-site calibration for one sensor can be used for all other sensors. The laboratory method was performed with aerosolized salt. Based on linear regression, we calculated slopes for 100 particulate matter (PM) sensors, and 50% of the PM sensors fell within ±14% of the average slope. We then compared our Average Slope Method with an Individual Slope Method and concluded that our first method balanced convenience and precision for our application. Laboratory selection was tested in the field, where we deployed 40 PM sensors inside a heavy-manufacturing site at spatially optimal locations and performed a field calibration to calculate a slope for three PM sensors with a reference instrument at one location. The average slope was applied to all PM sensors for mass concentration calculations. The calculated percent differences in the field were similar to the laboratory results. Therefore, we established a method that reduces the time and cost associated with calibration of low-cost sensors in the field.

Thermoplastic materials have great usage through FDM 3D printing technology. Today, FDM 3D printer is available to the broad population, and some of the thermoplastic materials is widely used due to their small price and availability. Such thermoplastic materials are ABS (Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) and PLA (Polylactic acid). In this paper the possibility of drone frame design optimization that can be made from ABS and PLA plastics using FDM 3D printing technology is analyzed.
