3D printers also called additive manufacturing printers or fabrication printers are a type of material design printer that designs and builds 3D models and products of devices and components using an additive manufacturing process.

3D printers design three-dimensional prototypes and create the end product by directly building them using computer-aided design (CAD) or software-created 3D design diagrams, figures, and patterns.

3D printers utilize additive manufacturing, where the printer designs the object by applying sequential layers of raw material to print a three-dimensional object.

Cellulose based 3d printing ink

3D printing

Researchers at the Swiss Institute for Quality Control and Laboratory Research EMPA have succeeded in developing an environmentally friendly 3D printing ink based on cellulose nanocrystals. This development can be used to produce microstructures with outstanding mechanical properties that will find applications in prosthetics and other medical fields.

To create 3D microstructured materials, EMPA used an additive 3D printing technology called robocasting (Direct Ink Writing, DIW). During this process, a viscous substance, the printing material, enters through the nozzle and immediately takes the desired shape due to pseudoplasticity. Dr. Gilberto Siqueira and Dr. Tanya Zimmerman of the Wood Materials Laboratory, together with Jennifer Lewis of Harvard University and André Studart of ETH Zurich, have succeeded in developing a new sustainable 3D printing material based on cellulose nanocrystals (CNC).

Along with lignin and hemicelluloses, cellulose is the main component of wood. This biopolymer is composed of glucose chains organized into long fibrous structures. In different areas, there is a different degree of ordering of cellulose fibrils. “Sites with a more ordered structure are characterized by a pronounced crystalline form, and it is these areas that we use for our research,” explains Dr. Siqueira. After acid treatment of these areas, the researchers obtain a product in the form of cellulose nanocrystals - rod-like structures 120 nm long and 6. 5 nm in diameter. It was these formations that served as the material for creating environmentally friendly “ink” for 3D printing. On their basis, it was possible to obtain "ink" with a CNC content of about 20%, while previous developments contained no more than 2.5% of this biomaterial.

“The main challenge was to achieve a viscous elastic consistency so that the consumable could easily pass through the nozzles of the 3D printer,” says Dr. Siqueira. At the same time, the material had to be dense enough so that the model held its shape before drying or polymerization, without melting immediately after printing. The first "ink" with cellulose was water-based, which made the prototype very fragile. Therefore, the EMPA research team invented another method for manufacturing consumables, already based on a polymer. This method has a significant advantage: after printing and polymerization using UV study, cellulose nanocrystals are “glued together” by polymer blocks, which gives the composite material additional strength.

Despite resistance

Researchers admit that they had to seriously puzzle over the solution of individual problems. “Most polymers are water-repellent or hydrophobic, while cellulose, being hydrophilic, attracts water. As a result, they are incompatible,” laments Dr. Siqueira. To create favorable conditions, the scientists resorted to chemical CNC surface treatment.

After the first printing attempts and X-ray analysis of the resulting microstructures, the laboratory specialists noticed that the cellulose nanocrystals were almost perfectly aligned in the direction of printing. It turned out that the degree of ordering depends on the force with which the “ink” is forced through the nozzles of the 3D printer. This feature can be used if it is necessary to obtain a model that has a certain rigidity in one direction or another.

A sea of ​​possibilities

The above advantages of CNC proved to be decisive when compared to other materials such as carbon fibres. In addition, cellulose is a renewable material and the most abundant natural polymer on Earth. It is found not only in trees, but also in other plants and even bacteria. Crystals obtained by isolation from various sources differ from each other only in size, and not in properties.

The automotive and packaging industries can also use this versatile material, which can be chemically modified through 3D printing if needed. However, according to Dr. Siqueira, the most important application of "ink" with cellulose nanocrystals is biomedicine and prosthetics in particular.

The possibilities of new "inks" are currently being studied within the walls of EMPA. At the same time, the development of new environmentally friendly consumables for various areas of 3D printing is being carried out.
