Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Additive Manufacturing
  • Polymer Processing

Background:

  • Cellulose is a sustainable material with growing industrial interest.
  • Additive manufacturing (AM) offers potential for cellulose-based materials.
  • Processing challenges hinder widespread AM application of cellulose.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a novel thermoplastic cellulose granulate for filament extrusion and FFF.
  • To investigate the mechanical properties of 3D printed cellulose components.
  • To compare FFF printed parts with injection-molded counterparts.

Main Methods:

  • Filament extrusion of cellulose-based granulate.
  • Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) printing parameter optimization.
  • Mechanical testing (tensile properties) of printed and molded samples.

Main Results:

  • Uniform cellulose filaments were successfully produced.
  • Printing parameters were optimized to overcome adhesion issues.
  • Printed parts exhibited lower mechanical properties than injection-molded samples but outperformed prior direct granule printing.

Conclusions:

  • FFF is a viable process for fabricating cellulose-based components with acceptable mechanical properties.
  • The new cellulose granulate shows promise for sustainable additive manufacturing.
  • Further research can enhance the mechanical performance of 3D printed cellulose.
