Analysis of Ageing and Degradation Behavior of Polyamide-12 for Sustainable Additive Manufacturing
Abstract: Additive Manufacturing (AM), particularly High-Speed Sintering (HSS), has emerged as a transformative technology capable of producing complex thermoplastic parts with high efficiency and minimal material waste. The HSS process involves selective deposition of radiation-absorbing ink followed by infrared heating to consolidate polymer powders-most commonly polyamide-12 (PA12). While PA12 is widely used due to its excellent thermal stability and mechanical properties, the sustainability of HSS strongly depends on the reuse of …
