Abstract

Abstract: In the present study multi-material 3D printing of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polylactic acid (PLA) and high impact polystyrene (HIPS) has been performed by using a low cost printing technology for manufacturing of innovative and sustainable composite materials. Further thermal (heat capacity at glass transition temperature, thermal conductivity) and mechanical (break elongation, break load, percentage elongation at break, break strength and young's modulus in tensile as well as pull out test) properties have been investigated for 3D printed multi-material components.
