The research presented in this article discusses the subject of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) modification via reactive mixing with poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) copolymer for 3D printing applications. Filaments suitable fused deposition modeling were prepared from blends PLA containing 10, 20, and 30% by weight PBAT. Mechanical testing clearly indicated that blending PBAT effectively increases impact strength PLA, an initial value approximately 30 J/m to more than 700 optimized PLA/PBAT (30%) chain extender-modified blend. addition multifunctional extender (ESA) also has a positive effect on rheological profile materials, which facilitates both production process extruded filament maintenance stable width printed material path.

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is an additive manufacturing technology that has emerged as a promising technique for fabricating 3D printed polymers. It gained attention recently due to its ease of use, efficiency, low cost, and safety. However, 3D-printed FDM components lack sufficient strength compared those made using conventional methods. This can be mainly attributed high porosity sinterability layers then the characteristics polymer used in process or itself. Regarding characteristics, there are two main types reinforcing fibers: discontinuous (short) continuous. Continuous-fiber reinforced composites becoming popular various industries their excellent mechanical properties. Since continuous fibers have more positive effect on increasing parts, this article focuses primarily long fibers. In addition different mechanisms been developed introduced address issue insufficient parts. comprehensively explains mechanisms: in-situ fusion ex-situ prepreg. also provides relevant examples these elements.
