Rapid manufacturing of polyethylene parts with controlled pore size gradients using selective laser sintering

In this study HDPE specimens were fabricated by selective laser sintering using different particle sizes to obtain controlled variations in the porosity. Electron microscopy, density measurements and mechanical analyses were conducted for the characterization of the specimens. Parts with controlled...
