3D printing bioplastics
ABS materials are the preferred engineering plastics for 3D printing by fused deposition due to their good hot melt property and impact strength.
ABS
PA
PA has high strength and flexibility, so it can directly use 3D printing to manufacture equipment parts. PA carbon fiber parts manufactured by 3D printing have high strength and toughness and can be used for mechanical tools instead of metal tools.
Due to the adhesiveness and powder characteristics of PA, it can be mixed with ceramic powder, glass powder, metal powder, and low-temperature 3D printing of ceramic powder, glass powder, and metal powder can be achieved by bonding.
Due to its good liquid flow and instant photocuring properties, liquid photosensitive resin is the material of choice for 3D printing consumables for high-precision product printing.
Photosensitive resin
Polymer monomer
Prepolymer
Rubber materials
Rubber materials possess a variety of levels of elasticity. The hardness, elongation at break, tear resistance and tensile strength of rubber make them ideal for applications requiring anti-skid or soft surfaces.
Titanium alloy
Cobalt- chromium alloy
Stainless steel
Aluminum alloy material
Gold
Silver
3D printing metal
The metal powder used in 3D printing
generally requires high purity, good
sphericity, narrow particle size
distribution and low oxygen content.
Sodium alginate
Cellulose
Peptone
Polyacrylic acid

PLA
PETG
PHB
As an environmentally friendly plastic, PLA is biodegradable into active compost. The biodegradable polymer material can be molded by 3D technology to produce its PLA tissue engineering scaffold with growth ability.
