Fused deposition modeling of PCL/HA/MMT biocompatible polymer nano-composites

This paper presents the development of a biocompatible polymer nano-composite material for the additive manufacturing (AM) process. The material was prepared by the mechanical of polycaprolactone (PCL), montmorillonite (MMT) and hydroxyapatite (HA) using a single screw extruder nanomixer. The amount...
