Abstract
This study utilizes Additive Manufacturing (AM), as a key enabler, in creating Polyethylene (PE)-based composites from industrial waste. The benefits of this study are: firstly, promoting environmental sustainability by successfully fabricating composites by repurposing industrial waste and increasing the capacity of PE recycling through AM; and secondly, developing high-value PE-based composites with enhanced structural, mechanical and rheological properties. Detailed printability assessment of various blend ratios of waste PE, Polystyrene, and fiber reinforced resin are discussed and successful printing of PE-based composites with tangible improvements in material properties is demonstrated. The agility of the proposed approach is also highlighted.
本研究利用增材制造技术(AM)作为一种关键技术,利用工业废料制造聚乙烯(PE)基复合材料。这项研究的益处在于:首先,通过对工业废料的再利用,成功制造出复合材料,并通过 AM 提高聚乙烯的回收能力,从而促进环境的可持续发展;其次,开发出具有更高的结构、机械和流变特性的高价值聚乙烯基复合材料。本文讨论了废聚乙烯、聚苯乙烯和纤维增强树脂各种混合比例的详细可印刷性评估,并展示了聚乙烯基复合材料的成功印刷以及材料性能的明显改善。此外,还强调了所建议方法的灵活性。
