New research enables greater control over 3D printed material properties 

Researchers from the Air Force Research Laboratory, Cornell University, and the Research & Technology arm of aerospace manufacturer Boeing have successfully mapped the crystallization process of poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) during 3D printing.   High-performance polymers, such as PEEK, are being increasingly used to produce 3D printed parts that require demanding mechanical properties, such as high-temperature […]
