Hot nanotubes help strengthen 3D printed thermoplastics in novel welding process

Hot nanotubes help strengthen 3D printed thermoplastics in novel welding process
A team of researchers from Texas A&M University has developed a novel method for improving the strength of 3D printed thermoplastic parts. By coating filaments with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and then exposing them to microwaves, the team found that it was able to improve a printed part’s strength by as much as 275%. As […]
