Abstract:

This study investigates the functional groups of 3D printing material filaments made from biocomposites using polymers and natural fibers, analyzed through FTIR spectroscopy. The process of making 3D printing filament uses the extrusion method with a single extrusion machine. The integration of natural fibers into polymer matrices provides a sustainable alternative for 3D printing materials, improving mechanical properties while reducing environmental impact. FTIR analysis revealed significant interactions between polymer and fiber components, identifying key functional groups such as hydroxyl and carbonyl that are critical for performance. Functional groups such as hydroxyl (-OH) and carbonyl (C=O) significantly influence the quality of biocomposites through their impact on the material's mechanical, thermal, and interfacial properties. These findings provide insight into the structure-property relationship of these materials, demonstrating their potential for sustainable 3D printing applications.
