In the recent years, the technologies for additive manufacturing (AM) have undergone a strong development in the areas of quality improvement and productivity and offer a high potential for economical small-scale production of highly complex components. There are still challenges, which block AM for series applications. The presently used polymers are not sufficient from a technical and an economical point of view to ensure the requirements for sustainable production in aviation, automotive and electronics industries. Especially in the region of temperature-resistant and functionalised flame-retardant materials, the available material variety cannot meet the industrial requirements…read more
