The recycling of post-industrial waste poly(lactic acid) (PI-PLA) from coffee machine pods into electroanalytical sensors for the detection caffeine in real tea and samples is reported herein. PI-PLA transformed both nonconductive conductive filaments to produce full cells, including additively manufactured electrodes (AMEs). cell was designed utilizing separate prints body increase recyclability system. made filament able be recycled three times before feedstock-induced print failure. Three...
Additive manufacturing represents a state-of-the-art technology that has been extensively disseminated in both the academic and industrial sectors. This enables cost-effective, simple, automated production of objects with diverse designs. Moreover, within community, additive provided genuine scientific revolutions, particularly field electrochemistry, due to accessibility Fused Filament Fabrication printing methodology, which utilizes thermoplastic filaments for electrochemical platforms....
Recycling used mixed material additively manufactured electroanalytical sensors into new 3D-printing filaments (both conductive and non-conductive) for the production of is reported herein. Additively (3D-printed) sensing platforms were transformed a non-conductive filament fused fabrication through four different methodologies (granulation, ball-milling, solvent mixing, thermal mixing) with mixing producing best quality filament, as evidenced by improved dispersion fillers throughout...
Abstract The first recycled conductive poly(lactic acid) (PLA) filament derived from post‐industrial waste sources for additive manufacturing (AM) is reported herein, presenting a paradigm shift in plastic recycling, AM production, and energy storage architectures. Filaments utilizing base of PLA, carbon black (CB) as filler, polyethylene glycol (PEG) plasticizer are used to produce aqueous symmetric supercapacitor platforms that can reach capacitance values 75 times higher than commercially...
This manuscript provides the first report of a fully additively manufactured (AM) electrochemical cell printed
The effect of solvent ingress on additive manufacturing is reported.
Serum creatinine concentration is an important clinical measure of kidney function. However, standard methods detection, such as the Jaffe method or enzymatic assays, suffer several disadvantages, including non-specificity and procedural complexity, high cost, respectively. In this work, we propose use nano-molecularly imprinted polymers (nMIPs) in conjunction with novel Heat Transfer Method (HTM) a promising alternative sensing platform to these existing for measuring serum concentration....
Laser Sintering is an additive manufacturing technology capable of producing robust, geometrically complex polymer parts, with polyamide 12, also known as nylon-12, the most common and well understood feedstock powder. While has drawn increased interest from industry for end-use components directly, little information currently available regarding effects in-service conditions on mechanical performance. When considering applications where parts spend significant periods time outdoors, such...
Abstract The use of polymer additive manufacturing to produce electrodes is an increasingly popular area electrochemical research. However, one downside additively manufactured the frequent need remove from electrode surface reveal a triple‐phase boundary in order for improved performance be realized. A common way achieve this, activation via chronoamperometry within aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. it has not been investigated whether same can carried out effectively solutions simple...
Purpose This study aims to demonstrate for the first time that cheap, commodity polymer, poly(propylene), can be successfully processed using high speed sintering, and it recycled several times through process, with little no detriment either polymer itself or parts obtained. is significant as a step towards realisation of sintering technology high-volume manufacturing. Design/methodology/approach A poly(propylene) powder designed laser was used build on machine. The unsintered then...
Abstract High Speed Sintering (HSS) is a novel polymer additive manufacturing process which utilises inkjet printing of an infrared-absorbing pigment onto heated powder bed to create 2D cross-sections can be selectively sintered using infrared lamp. Understanding and improving the accuracy repeatability part manufacture by HSS are important, ongoing areas research. In particular, role ink poorly understood; inks typically used in have not been optimised for it, it unknown whether they...
