Abstract:In the present research, the PP/EPDM/TiO2 nanocomposite was fabricated using the fused filament fabrication process to improve the mechanical properties of the obtained samples. For this purpose, first the response surface methodology was used to investigate the effect of TiO2 content, nozzle temperature and printing speed on the responses of tensile strength and elongation. Then, the desirability function method was applied to find the optimal condition of the process parameters. The fracture surface of the t… Show more
