Tiivistelmä
This thesis aims to use the recycled plastics in 3D printing, then comparing the mechanical properties between the different materials. The main mechanical property compared is tensile strength.
Different methods of 3D printing are introduced in this thesis, but in the experiments. The recycled materials and their combination with cellulose are to be printed using FDM technique, tensile strength testing are using standard of ISO 527, and then comparisons are made between different materials. Finally, analyze the testing result and give conclusion about the reliable factors that influence the properties of 3D printed plastics.
