Cork–PLA composite filaments for fused deposition modelling

Abstract

Abstract We report design and development of cork–poly(lactic acid) (PLA) biodegradable filaments for fused deposition modelling (FDM), which is an additive manufacturing technique. Composites of varying cork composition were melt compounded in an internal mixer and compression moulded for characterisation of mechanical, thermal and morphological properties. Inclusion of cork granules decreased the tensile strength, but improved impact strength. As the cork percentage increased, density of the composites decreased. Hence, the specific modulus and specific tensile strength properties improved as the cork content increased in the composites. Tributyl citrate (TBC), a biodegradable plasticiser, was used to overcome the inherent brittleness of PLA. TBC decreased the modulus, tensile yield strength; however it increased ductility of the composites. A selected cork composite was used for filament production and it proved to be suitable for fused deposition modelling. 3D printed composites were compared with compression moulded composites. 3D printing resulted in slightly lower elastic modulus and tensile yield strength, but higher elongation at break compared with compression moulded composites.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
