Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Materials Science
  • Additive Manufacturing

Background:

  • Biomedical applications require realistic 3D-printed anatomical models for device evaluation.
  • PolyJet technology offers multi-material 3D printing for anatomical models with varying properties.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To mechanically characterize multi-material 3D-printed specimens mimicking hierarchical structures of tendons and ligaments.
  • To evaluate the influence of pattern type, hardness, and material ratios on mechanical properties.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a Stratasys J750 3D Printer with Agilus30 material at varying hardness levels.
  • Conducted uni-axial tensile tests and employed Digital Image Correlation (DIC) for strain quantification.
  • Analyzed mechanical properties based on pattern design, hardness combinations, and matrix-to-fiber ratios.

Main Results:

  • Identified significant differences in mechanical properties based on pattern type, hardness, and material composition.
  • Selected specimens V, J1, A1, and C as optimal for their respective patterns.
  • Specimen V exhibited the best overall mechanical balance, with high Modulus of Elasticity (2.21 ± 0.17 MPa), maximum strain (1.86 ± 0.05 mm/mm), and tensile strength (2.11 ± 0.13 MPa).

Conclusions:

  • PolyJet technology provides versatile material tailoring for specific anatomical needs.
  • The developed 3D-printed soft tissues offer realistic solutions for computational and anatomical models.
  • These findings advance the development of accurate bio-mimicking tissues for intermediate evaluation steps in biomedical research.
