The green (bio)synthesis of nanosilver (AgNPs) was promisingly performed using royal jelly (RJ) as a mediator of synthesis. The RJ-synthesized AgNPs had an average diameter of 3.61 nm and were negatively charged (-27.2 mV).

The infrared (FTIR) analysis designated molecules' interactions, whereas the transmission microscopy emphasized the homogenous distribution and impedance of AgNPs within the biopolymers' nanocomposites. Challenging <i>C. albicans</i> strains with nanomaterials/composites pinpointed their bioactivity for suppressing yeast growth and biofilm formation; the F2 nanocomposite exhibited superior actions, with the lowest inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 125-175 mg/L, whereas the MIC ranges were 150-200 and 175-225 mg/L for F3 and F1, respectively.

Polypropylene (PP) represents an ideal candidate in orthotic applications due to its light weight and superior mechanical properties, offering an excellent balance between flexibility, chemical resistance, biocompatibility, and long-term durability. However, Additive Manufacturing (AM) of AFOs based on PP remains a major challenge due to its limited bed adhesion and high shrinkage, especially for making large parts such as AFOs. The primary innovation of the present study lies in the optimization of FFF 3D printing parameters for the fabrication of functional, patient-specific orthoses using PP, a material still underutilized in the AM of medical devices. Firstly, a thorough thermomechanical characterization was conducted, allowing the implementation of a (thermo-)elastic material model for the used PP filament. Thereafter, a Taguchi design of experiments (DOE) was established to study the influence of several printing parameters (extrusion temperature, printing speed, layer thickness, infill density, infill pattern, and part orientation) on the mechanical properties of 3D-printed specimens. Three-point bending tests were conducted to evaluate the strength and stiffness of the samples, while additional tensile tests were performed on the 3D-printed orthoses using a home-made innovative device to validate the optimal configurations. The results showed that the maximum flexural modulus of 3D-printed specimens was achieved when the printing speed was around 50 mm/s. The most significant parameter for mechanical performance and reduction in printing time was shown to be infill density, contributing 73.2% to maximum stress and 75.2% to Interlaminar Shear Strength (ILSS). Finally, the applicability of the finite element method (FEM) to simulate the FFF process-induced deflections, part distortion (warpage), and residual stresses in 3D-printed orthoses was investigated using a numerical simulation tool (Digimat-AM<sup>®</sup>). The combination of Taguchi DOE with Digimat-AM for polypropylene AFOs highlighted that the 90° orientation appeared to be the most suitable configuration, as it minimizes deformation and von Mises stress, ensuring improved quality and robustness of the printed orthoses. The findings from this study contribute by providing a reliable method for printing PP parts with improved mechanical performance, thereby opening new opportunities for its use in medical-grade additive manufacturing.</p>","PeriodicalId":20416,"journal":{"name":"Polymers","volume":"17 14","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2025-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144744497","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Comprehensive characterization including ion trap mass spectrometry (Ion trap MS), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and four-probe conductivity measurements, confirmed successful PEDA incorporation and revealed enhanced electrical conductivity with increasing PEDA content.

However, the popularization of LS technology in civilian applications has long been constrained by accuracy-related issues. Polyamide (PA), as the most mature LS material, still faces challenges in controlling part dimensional errors. Biomass materials, when used as fillers, can improve the printing accuracy of fabricated parts, demonstrating a technically feasible synergy between PA and biomass materials. Therefore, this study analyzes the fundamental material properties of PA/pine biomass composites and investigates error control methods for LS-fabricated parts using PA/biomass materials as feedstock. This study investigates the error modeling of LS-fabricated parts from two perspectives. First, a theoretical mathematical model is established to predict part errors by incorporating material properties, process parameters, and equipment factors. Second, a data-driven model is developed using BP neural network technology based on experimental data to correlate LS process parameters with part dimensional errors. Additionally, the predictive capabilities and compensation effects of both models are examined. The experimental results indicate that the nylon/pine wood biomass composite with a pine wood content of 3 wt% can produce molded parts with a tensile strength of 20 MPa. Additionally, this material exhibits a sintering preheating window range of 10 °C, which facilitates the production of parts with both favorable mechanical properties and dimensional accuracy. Both error prediction models are capable of predicting the dimensional deviations of the parts. The data-driven model demonstrates superior deviation prediction accuracy (approximately 81-91%) for LS parts compared to the theoretical mathematical model (approximately 62-73%). By applying compensation based on the error prediction models, the overall dimensional deviation can be reduced from 1.61-3.49% to 0.41-0.50%. Consequently, the part's precision grade (according to ISO 2768) is improved from below Grade V to Grade C.</p>","PeriodicalId":20416,"journal":{"name":"Polymers","volume":"17 14","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2025-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144744458","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
