Abstract
The application of polymer nanocomposites in the number of device applications has multiplied through the years. This means that their thermo-mechanical properties can be tuned towards more mechanically compatible properties to the human body including elastomeric properties. 3D printing is emerging to be an alternative for additive manufacturing with its rapid-prototyping advantage and the ability to incorporated new polymer and nanocomposite in processing methods such as fused deposition modeling (FDM), stereolithographic apparatus (SLA), and viscous solution printing (VSP). This talk will highlight the convergence of nanocomposite materials and digital design in 3D printed 4D printed structures with compositions of thermoplastics, thermosets, thermoset elastomer nanocomposites.
