“…To compare the performance of the DcAFF (HiPerDiF-PLA) 3D printed part with other available 3D printing materials from literature, the tensile stiffness and strength of the DcAFF printed in a single layer were plotted against other PLA [ 5 , 7 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 ], PLA-short carbon fibre (PLA-S.CF) [ 6 , 27 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 ], PLA-continuous carbon fibre (PLA-C.CF) [ 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ], and Markforged continuous carbon fibre (nylon-C.CF) [ 6 , 14 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 ]. Both plots, Figure 7 , show that the properties of the DcAFF are superior to short-PLA composite 3D printed parts and at a comparable level with the PLA-continuous carbon fibres.…”
