“…In particular, the fused deposition modeling (FDM) method has been popular in applications because it is inexpensive for thermoplastic materials and low maintenance [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ]. Moreover, it has been used in prototypes and the production of custom parts in many industries including the medical, food, textile, automotive, aerospace, and construction industries [ 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ]. In FDM 3D printing, melted thermoplastic is extruded in the X, Y, and Z directions, and laminated layer by layer on a platform.…”

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) filaments have been the most used in fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printing. The filaments, based on PLA, are continuing to be developed to overcome brittleness, low heat resistance, and obtain superior mechanical performance in 3D printing. From our previous study, the binary blend composites from PLA and poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) with nano talc (PLA/PBAT/nano talc) at 70/30/10 showed an improvement in toughness and printability in FDM 3D printing. Nevertheless, interlayer adhesion, anisotropic characteristics, and heat resistance have been promoted for further application in FDM 3D printing. In this study, binary and ternary blend composites from PLA/PBAT and poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) with nano talc were prepared at a ratio of PLA 70 wt. % and blending with PBAT or PBS at 30 wt. % and nano talc at 10 wt. %. The materials were compounded via a twin-screw extruder and applied to the filament using a capillary rheometer. PLA/PBAT/PBS/nano talc blend composites were printed using FDM 3D printing. Thermal analysis, viscosity, interlayer adhesion, mechanical properties, and dimensional accuracy of binary and ternary blend composite 3D prints were investigated. The incorporation of of PBS-enhanced crystallinity of the blend composite 3D prints resulted in an improvement to mechanical properties, heat resistance, and anisotropic characteristics. Flexibility of the blend composites was obtained by presentation of PBAT. It should be noted that the core–shell morphology of the ternary blend influenced the reduction of volume shrinkage, which obtained good surface roughness and dimensional accuracy in the ternary blend composite 3D printing.

“…The evolution of 3DP technology started in the early 2000s, though there was some evidence of 3D printers since the 1970s. [20][21][22] The 3DP technology, also known as additive manufacturing (AM), allows making products in a consecutive layered fashion with freedom of design, mass minimization, waste remediation, cost efficiency and advantages for product design including materials selection and the incorporation of uniqueness in design. [22] It allows to investigate the products' quality, properties, and performance prior to bulk production which ultimately helps industries to save materials, labor, time, and cost.…”

“…[21] The powder-based method consists of selective laser melting or selective laser sintering (SLS) where 3D printed objects are formed with the help of laser power in a layered fashion. [22] Among various liquid-based methods, stereolithography (SLA), inkjet binding, are the most popular in various fields. In recent years, almost a 100 different designed 3D printers are available in size ranges from small, affordable table tops to larger sizes.…”

Shape memory materials (SMMs) in 3D printing (3DP) technology garnered much attention due to their ability to respond to external stimuli, which direct this technology toward an emerging area of research, “4D printing (4DP) technology.” In contrast to classical 3D printed objects, the fourth dimension, time, allows printed objects to undergo significant changes in shape, size, or color when subjected to external stimuli. Highly precise and calibrated 4D materials, which can perform together to achieve robust 4D objects, are in great demand in various fields such as military applications, space suits, robotic systems, apparel, healthcare, sports, etc. This review, for the first time, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, focuses on recent advances in SMMs (e.g., polymers, metals, etc.) based wearable smart textiles and fashion goods. This review integrates the basic overview of 3DP technology, fabrication methods, the transition of 3DP to 4DP, the chemistry behind the fundamental working principles of 4D printed objects, materials selection for smart textiles and fashion goods. The central part summarizes the effect of major external stimuli on 4D textile materials followed by the major applications. Lastly, prospects and challenges are discussed, so that future researchers can continue the progress of this technology.

Thermoplastic polymers are extensively utilized in electronics, aerospace, automobile and additive manufacturing industries due to low cost, low temperature processing and reusability. Thermoplastics of different grades and chemical structures arereadily available in the market They can be reusedand reshaped, and also can be manufactured with less weight proportion as compared to the metals and ceramics by providing same strength of material. As a result, the plastics products in the market are getting popular day by day with high demand of customized products due to inception of additive manufacturing technologies. In any case, the issue of recycling these materials is challenge due to enormous energy requirements and varying chemical composition of different polymers. There are both mechanical and financial issues that restrict the advancements in this field. The recycling process of polymers can be done by the four different ways such as primary recycling process, secondary recycling process, tertiary recycling process and quaternary recycling process which can be discussed in this systematic review with practical examples. The modifications and implementation of these polymer waste recycling techniques could help to reduce wastage and save material cost which would directly affect the economy of contemporary industries.
