Additive Manufacturing for Biocomposites and Synthetic Composites focuses on processes, engineering, and product design applications of bio-composites and synthetic composites in additive manufacturing (AM). It discusses the preparation and material characterization and selection, as well as future opportunities and challenges.
- Reviews the latest research on the development of composites for AM and the preparation of composite feedstocks
- Offers an analytical and statistical approach for the selection of composites for AM, including characterization of material properties
- Emphasizes the use of environmentally friendly composites
- Analyzes the lifecycle including costs
- Considers potential new fibers, their selection, and future applications
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the application of advanced composite materials in AM and is aimed at researchers, engineers, and advanced students in materials and manufacturing engineering and related disciplines.
