“…In addition, the effects of line and grid patterned surface structures on a superhydrophobic surface which was previously printed on the PLA surface with a 3D printer were also investigated. Anisotropic superhydrophobic behavior was observed on the line patterned surfaces, however, a slight decrease in mechanical properties was also found on the parts after patterning [152].…”

“…Besides the use of 3D printed PLA objects in biomedical applications, there are some interesting fields that require the use of 3D printed PLA objects after surface modification. For example, Lee et al obtained a superhydrophobic 3D printed PLA object after modifying its surface [152]. They dip-coated the PLA objects in a dispersion containing hydrophobic silica particles in a methyl ethyl ketone solvent.…”

Polylactic acid (PLA) filaments are very popular as a thermoplastic source used in the 3D printing field by the “Fused Deposition Modeling” method in the last decade. The PLA market is expected to reach 5.2 billion US dollars in 2020 for all of its industrial uses. On the other hand, 3D printing is an expanding technology that has a large economic potential in many industries where PLA is one of the main choices as the source polymer due to its ease of printing, environmentally friendly nature, glossiness and multicolor appearance properties. In this review, we first reported the chemical structure, production methods, general properties, and present market of the PLA. Then, the chemical modification possibilities of PLA and its use in 3D printers, present drawbacks, and the surface modification methods of PLA polymers in many different fields were discussed. Specifically, the 3D printing method where the PLA filaments are used in the extrusion-based 3D printing technologies is reviewed in this article. Many methods have been proposed for the permanent surface modifications of the PLA where covalent attachments were formed such as alkaline surface hydrolysis, atom transfer polymerization, photografting by UV light, plasma treatment, and chemical reactions after plasma treatment. Some of these methods can be applied for surface modifications of PLA objects obtained by 3D printing for better performance in biomedical uses and other fields. Some recent publications reporting the surface modification of 3D printed PLA objects were also discussed.

“…In addition to the consideration of environmental issues and resource shortages, it is important to choose an applicable polymer as the matrix of the composites. As a biodegradable and environment-friendly bioplastic [10,11], polylactic acid (PLA) can be produced by corns and other food crops [12,13,14] and has been widely used as matrixes for Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technology recently [15,16]. However, the brittleness and high cost of PLA limits its application [17].…”

The aim of the study was to improve the electrical and thermal conductivity of the polylactic acid/wood flour/thermoplastic polyurethane composites by Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM). The results showed that, when the addition amount of nano-graphite reached 25 pbw, the volume resistivity of the composites decreased to 108 Ω·m, which was a significant reduction, indicating that the conductive network was already formed. It also had good thermal conductivity, mechanical properties, and thermal stability. The adding of the redox graphene (rGO) combined with graphite into the composites, compared to the tannic acid-functionalized graphite or the multi-walled carbon nanotubes, can be an effective method to improve the performance of the biocomposites, because the resistivity reduced by one order magnitude and the thermal conductivity increased by 25.71%. Models printed by FDM illustrated that the composite filaments have a certain flexibility and can be printed onto paper or flexible baseplates.

“…So the nozzle temperature is the important factor for the successful printing of the FDM printer. In traditional FDM printer, the temperature control of nozzle is combined with the whole control system of the FDM printer (Kyong-Min, Hani, Jihun & Doo-Man, 2019;Hardikkumar, Darshan & Ankur, 2017). In this paper, a robot FDM printing system is provided.…”

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technology in 3D printing has beendeveloped for many years. In this paper, a robot FDM 3D printingsystem is proposed and the nozzle temperature control issue isfocused primarily. The temperature measurement adopts a data driven modeling method andthe parameters of the measurement model are trained by the particle swarm optimization algorithm. A practical temperature control method is presented in which thetemperature control of nozzle is divided into two periods. Duringthe temperature flying period, the heating voltage is givenaccording to the current temperature value and its varying trend. In thefalling time of nozzle temperature, the corresponding controlvoltage value is provided correspondingly. Based on this practical control strategy, a partdesigned with Solidworks software is printed using the robot FDM printing system which validates theeffectiveness of the practical temperature control method.
