Development of 3D Printing Filaments from Industrial Waste Plastics
Abstract: The global plastic waste crisis has prompted innovative approaches to sustainable material reuse, particularly in additive manufacturing. Simultaneously, the accumulation of plastic waste presents significant environmental concerns. Recycling plastic into filament supports eco-friendly innovation and brings us closer to a circular economy where materials are reused instead of thrown away. This study investigates the development of 3D printing filaments from industrial waste plastics, including polypropylene (PP), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), …
