“…As a result, findings that can support material selection in 3D manufacturing have been determined. In the literature, the environmental impact of parts produced using 3D printing, especially using FDM-based materials, has been investigated through life cycle analysis [ 50 , 51 ]. However, there is a severe deficiency, especially in UV resin material.…”

Additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing technology is one of the preferred methods to ensure sustainability in fabrication. In addition to providing continuity in sustainability, fabrication, and diversity, it aims to improve people’s quality of life, develop the economy, and protect the environment and resources for future generations. In this study, the life cycle assessment (LCA) method was used to determine whether a product fabricated by the AM provides tangible benefits compared to traditional fabrication methodologies. LCA is an evaluation method that provides information on resource efficiency and waste generation, where the environmental impacts of a process can be calculated, measured, and reported throughout the entire life cycle, starting from the acquisition of raw materials, processing, fabrication, use, end of life, and disposal, according to ISO 14040/44 standards. This study examines the environmental impacts of the three most preferred filaments and resin materials in the AM for a 3D-printed product from the start, which consists of three stages. These stages are raw material extraction, manufacturing, and recycling. Filament material types are Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), Polylactic Acid (PLA), Polyethylene Terephthalate (PETG), and Ultraviolet (UV) Resin. The fabrication process was carried out with Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) and Stereolithography (SLA) techniques using a 3D printer. Environmental impacts for all identified steps were estimated over the life cycle using the energy consumption model. As a result of the LCA, it was seen that UV Resin was the most environmentally friendly material in the mid-point and end-point indicators. It has been determined that the ABS material also exhibits bad results on many indicators and is the least environmentally friendly. The results support those working with AM in comparing different materials’ environmental impacts and choosing an environmentally friendly material.

“…A fused deposition modeling (FDM) based 3D printer device was employed for fabrication. Thermoplastics used in FDM other than PLA material are as follows [11][12][13][14][15] : acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG), and wood. FDM is one of the most preferred AM methods because of its ease of use, wide range of materials, and low device cost.…”

Additive manufacturing (AM) has begun to replace traditional fabrication because of its advantages, such as easy manufacturing of parts with complex geometry, and mass production. The most important limitation of AM is that dimensional accuracy cannot be achieved in all parts. Dimensional accuracy is essential for high reliability, high performance, and useful final products. This study investigates the impact of printing parameters on the dimensional accuracy of samples fabricated through fused deposition modeling (FDM), an additive manufacturing (AM) method utilizing polylactic acid (PLA) material. The experimental design process was performed using Taguchi methodology. ANOVA was used to determine the most important parameter affecting accuracy. Based on experimental studies, the optimal printing parameters for parts are determined as follows: concentric infill pattern, 3 mm wall thickness, 70% infill density, and a layer thickness of 200 μm. Artificial neural network (ANN) was used in the evaluation and prediction of the results. The R‐square (R2) performance evaluation criterion was above 95% from the ANN results. This value shows that the results are significant. The data acquired from this study may assist in identifying optimal parameters that contribute to the fabrication of samples with high dimensional accuracy using the FDM method.

Multifunctional materials for industrial wastewater treatment are in high demand due to the contamination of microand nanoplastics (MNPs) and dyes. Herein, we demonstrate a polyurethane-based (PU) electrospun composite membrane for MNP separation and selective methylene blue (MB) adsorption. The optimized 20 wt % graphene oxide-montmorillonite (GO-Mt)-loaded nanofibrous composite membrane (20-PGT) exhibited its superhydrophilicity with a water contact angle of 0°and high water flux. It displayed a maximum pressure-driven water flow of 8163 L m −2 h −1 and a gravity-driven water flux of 793 L m −2 h −1 . Three model MNPs, such as acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polystyrene (PS), and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) with various sizes, have been demonstrated. The adsorptive separation and size-exclusive interception mechanisms were observed for nanoplastics (NPs) and microplastics (MPs), respectively. Cake formation, intermediate blocking, and standard blocking mechanisms were followed during the filtration of ABS MPs, PMMA NPs, and PS NPs, respectively. Additionally, the composite membrane exhibited selective MB adsorption from the mixture of dyes, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 417 mg g −1 . Langmuir adsorption isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetics define the adsorption isotherm and adsorption kinetics, respectively. The fabricated, robust fibrous composite membrane opens a wider door for the removal of MNPs and MB from contaminated water.
