Abstract:The high consumption of single-use plastics and the low recycling rates have seriously polluted the soil and ocean environments. Thermoplastic materials from recycling can be used to make filaments for 3D printing. This study is focused on preparing, characterizing, and comparing the polymers reinforced with recycled flexible plastic blends to be used as a filament in additive manufacturing. In this regard, two types of polymers were used to create the filament: High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and Polypropyle… Show more
