Our goal was to compare the properties of blends with different uGTR and conventional fine ground tire rubber (fGTR) contents prepared by blending with low-density polyethylene (LDPE). We also aimed to explore the property changes caused by the larger specific surface area due to the size effect. Samples were prepared with a hydraulic press after internal mixing. In the case of ground tire rubber (GTR) filled mixtures, the tensile properties showed rubber-like characteristics: with a significant decrease in modulus, elongation at break remained high, and tensile strength slightly decreased. The fracture surfaces of the samples were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), wherein the case of materials made with uGTR showed better adhesion between the phases. In order to investigate the interfacial adhesion between the GTR and LDPE, we performed dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA). The glass transition peak of the uGTR shifted to a higher temperature and the storage modulus was higher than in the case of samples containing fGTR. Finally, we determined the Shore D hardness of the materials, which decreased with increasing GTR content, but hardness was greater in the case of uGTR samples. The better mechanical properties of blends containing uGTR were explained by better interfacial adhesion between the two phases due to the significantly higher specific surface area compared to fGTR.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7186,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Industrial and Engineering Polymer Research","volume":"5 1","pages":"Pages 12-17"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.aiepr.2021.07.001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43666483","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Semi-crystalline thermoplastics, which are preferably used in LS, need to be processed within a certain surface temperature range enabling the simultaneous presence of the material in both, the molten and solid state. In accordance with the most common processing models, these high temperatures are held throughout the entire building phase. In the state of the art, this leads to high cooling times and delayed component availability.</p><p>In this paper, process-adapted methods, in-situ experiments and numerical simulations were carried out in order to prove that this drawback can be overcome by material-adapted processing strategies based on a deepened model understanding. These strategies base on the fact, that the crystallization and solidification of polyamide 12 is initiated a few layers below the powder bed surface at high temperature and quasi-isothermic processing conditions. Therefore, isothermal crystallization and consolidation behaviour is analyzed by process-adapted material characterization. The influence of temperature fields during laser processing was analyzed in dependence of part cross-section, layer number and fabrication parameters and correlated to the resulting part properties. Furthermore, the possibility to homogenize the parts thermal history by controlling the part cooling is highlighted by a simulational approach. The authors show that the material-dependent solidification behavior must be taken into account as a function of the geometry- and layer-dependent temperature fields and demonstrate a major influence on the material and component properties. From these findings, new processing strategies for the laser exposure process as well as for the temperature control of the build chamber in z-direction arise, which allow for the acceleration of the LS process and earlier availability of components with more uniform part properties.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7186,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Industrial and Engineering Polymer Research","volume":"4 4","pages":"Pages 251-263"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.aiepr.2021.05.002","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"107888263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The process of 4D printing is when a printed 3D object becomes another structure due to the influence of outside energy inputs such as temperature, light, or other environmental stimuli. This technology uses the input of smart materials, which have the excellent capability of shape-changing. The self-assembly and programmable material technology aim to reimagine building, production, assembly of products, and performance. 4D printing is applied in various sectors such as engineering, medicine, and others. 4D printed proteins could be a great application. With this new dimension, 3D printed objects can change their shape by themselves over the influence of external stimuli, such as light, heat, electricity, magnetic field, etc. This paper discussed a brief about 4D printing technology. Various characteristics of 4D Printing for enhancing the manufacturing domain, its development, and applications are discussed diagrammatically. Conceptualised the Work Process Flow for 4D Additive Manufacturing and finally identified ten major roles of 4D printing in the manufacturing field. Although reversible 4D Printing itself is a fantastic development, it is innovative, and it employs durable and accurate reversal material during the shapeshift. It helps us create complicated structures that cannot be accomplished easily by traditional manufacturing technologies. It seems to be a game-changer in different industries by depending on natural factors instead of energy and changes the way to produce, develop, bundle, and ship goods entirely.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7186,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Industrial and Engineering Polymer Research","volume":"4 4","pages":"Pages 301-311"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.aiepr.2021.05.001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"104006297","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, state-of-the-art composite feedstock like commingled yarns shows limits in achievable material quality and part dimensions due to the underlying fiber architecture where thermoplastic fibers are mingled with reinforcement filaments. Hybrid bicomponent fibers overcome these constraints because each individual reinforcement filament is clad in a thermoplastic sheath. This results in absence of time-consuming fiber impregnation steps that would negatively effect void content and material quality.</p><p>This study compares the material quality of pultrudates made from hybrid bicomponent fibers to that of commercially available commingled yarns at various processing conditions.

The results show that the pultrudates obtained from hybrid bicomponent fibers have lower void content than those manufactured under the same conditions from commingled yarns. We assess this to be caused by the difference in consolidation mechanism which in the case of the hybrid bicomponent fibers is dominated by coalescing of the thermoplastic sheaths compared to the Darcian flow-dominated consolidation of commingled yarns.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7186,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Industrial and Engineering Polymer Research","volume":"4 4","pages":"Pages 224-234"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.aiepr.2021.07.004","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41792441","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A wide range of polymers should theoretically be processable by laser sintering. However, in practice this is not the case, with only a small number of polymers currently able to be processed reliably and consistently. This paper reviews research that has been undertaken to increase the processability, mechanical properties and functionality of laser sintering polymers through the addition of a range of organic and inorganic nanofillers. It examines key challenges, including dispersion of the nanophase, and methods that have been developed to overcome them. The effects of the nanophase on processability are explored, as well as the importance of key processing parameters.

It appears to concentrate on the output of a component on lesser material waste, energy usage, and machine emissions. There is a need to study the environmental sustainability of additive manufacturing technologies and their applications. As more businesses aim to strengthen their eco-footprint, sustainability in AM is gaining momentum. Visionary leaders of the industry are continually challenging their employees to find new ways to reduce waste, improving their workforce's manufacturing environment, and find innovative ways to use new materials to become more sustainable. The growth in value-added components, goods, and services has resulted from these initiatives.
