Aging effects on the viscoelastic behaviour of products by fused deposition modelling (FDM) made from recycled and wood-filled polymer resins

Abstract: In this work, we analyse the thermal aging effects on the thermo-mechanical properties of bio-based specimens realized using fused deposition modelling technology. For the investigations, three commercial filaments made of polylactide acid (PLA) were used. The first filament was a pure virgin PLA (B-PLA); the second one was made from recycled waste production, PLA (R-PLA), and the third one was wood-filled PLA (W-PLA). Such materials were extruded under pre-optimized conditions and thermally aged in an oven … Show more

“…These changes are supposed to shift the behavior of material from viscoelastic to elastic and two separate experiments (creep tests and cyclic heating tests) indicated this phenomenon to exist. Therefore, the hypothesis, which was mentioned in the Introduction (that thermal aging decreases viscosity), is supported by the results of three independent experiments and correlates with other research [19,20].…”

“…For the processed polymer (PHB_2), the peak becomes more evident, enlarged, and shifts toward higher temperatures. This variation, due to the extrusion process, is the result of two opposing effects: densification, which reduced polymer chain mobility, and chain scission (due to thermal degradation), which improves macromolecular mobility [55]. The two curves of PHB_2 The storage modulus decreases with increasing temperature, reflecting faster the relaxation processes of the material and the increased mobility of macromolecules at higher temperatures.…”

“…For the pure polymer (PHB), the glass transition temperature is around 23 • C. For the processed polymer (PHB_2), the peak becomes more evident, enlarged, and shifts toward higher temperatures. This variation, due to the extrusion process, is the result of two opposing effects: densification, which reduced polymer chain mobility, and chain scission (due to thermal degradation), which improves macromolecular mobility [55]. The two curves of PHB_2 and PHB/MCC 1.5% overlap, and no significant effect can be observed due to the addition of a 1.5 wt.% filler content.…”
