Abstract:3D printing has conquered markets on an exponential scale. Allied to this, the global demand for environmentally sustainable materials drives research in the search for a substitute for petroleum-based thermoplastics. PLA is among the main raw materials for use in 3D printing filaments and has the advantage of being a bio-based and biodegradable biopolymer. This study aimed to develop a biofilament from a mixture of periphytic biomass and PLA and to evaluate its biodegradability potential when compared to comm… Show more
