The Influence of Sparse Filling of FDM-Printed Samples on Mechanical Properties of Polyphenylene Sulfone and a Carbon-Filled Composite Based on it

Abstract:

FDM-printing technology is widely used in many fields including highly responsible industries such as aerospace, oil and gas and automotive manufacturing. Polyphenylene sulfone and its composites are one of the most common used high-performance polymers in those fields but polyphenylene sulfone is expensive and the lower material would be used for production the more applications could be able to enroot polyphenylene sulfone to their industries. Additive manufacturing opens new boundaries comparing to traditional technologies allowing to use the grid filling of parts which can help to reduce the material expenditure. In this research the influence of grid filling to mechanical properties of polyphenylene sulfone and its carbon-filled composite samples obtained using FDM-printing technology was studied. The article includes results about the effect of various grid sizes and its type on the mechanical properties of polyphenylene sulfone and its carbon-filled composite samples, and It shows the possibility of significant material savings while maintaining the required product properties.
