Direct extrusion 3D printing for a softer PLA-based bio-polymer composite in pellet form

Fused deposition modelling is the most popular method of 3D printing with a variety of polymers, but the raw materials are commonly in the filament form. Research has demonstrated the ability to use pellets for this process, which are easier to produce than filaments. Apart from the savings on the p...
