Expanding the Polymer Material Palette for Laser Sintering: the Importance of Powder Flowability KU Leuven
This PhD research studies the polymer powders used in Laser Sintering (LS) and aims to add new usable powders to the LS portfolio. The focus of the research lies on powder flow and powder creation.
Laser Sintering (LS) is a form of Additive Manufacturing (AM). AM comprises a variety of techniques which build end products layer-by-layer, from a computer aided design (CAD) model. In the case of LS, (polymer) powders are used as a base ...
