Abstract: Abstract The strengths of additive manufacturing (AM), especially the tool-less manufacturing paradigm and rapid production of low-volume products, are well-aligned with the needs of manufacturing of expensive, high-temperature resistant, engineering thermoplastic polymers. High temperature polymer… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-019-10582-6
Abstract: Environmental and health concerns force the search for sustainable super engineering plastics (SEPs) that utilise bio-derived cyclic monomers, e.g. isosorbide instead of restricted petrochemicals. However, previously reported bio-derived thermosets or thermoplastics rarely offer thermal/mechanical properties,… read more here.
