A development of new material for 4D printing and the material properties comparison between the conventional and stereolithography polymerised NVCL hydrogels
(MDPI, 2022-11-22)The term 4D printing refers to the idea that the shape or properties of a printed object can be changed when an external stimulus is applied. In this contribution, a temperature-responsive polymer Poly (N-vinyl caprolactam) ... -
Development of smart 4-D materials utilising novel self assembly polymers
(2020-06)4D printing is a technique that uses a 3 D printer to create objects that change their shape overtime 4 D printing involves the use of smart materials that will transform when exposed to an external stimuli These can ... -
The development of smart 4D materials using the smart temperature-sensitive polymer
(TUS Midlands Midwest, 2022)There is more that can be done with a 3D structure to make them more flexible and more useful: by utilising structures (Smart Polymers) that can transform in a preprogrammed way in response to a stimulus. Thus, giving ... -
Investigation of thermal. mechanical and shape memory properties of 3D-printed functionally graded nanocomposite materials
(MDPI, 2023-09-28)In this study, a 3D-printed photocurable resin was developed by incorporating graphene nanoplatelets functionalised with melamine to investigate the thermal, mechanical, fracture and shape memory behaviours. The objective ... -
Synthesis and characterization of 4D-printed NVCL-coDEGDA resin using stereolithography 3D printing
(MDPI, 2024-03-19)The design and manufacturing of objects in various industries have been fundamentally altered by the introduction of D-dimensional (3D) and four-dimensional (4D) printing technologies. Four-dimensional printing, a ...
