Rapid 3D Printing of Reduced Graphene Oxide/Polymer Composites Using Micro-Continuous Liquid Interface Production

Integrating advanced materials with innovative manufacturing techniques has propelled the field of additive manufacturing into new frontiers. This study explores the rapid 3D printing of reduced graphene oxide/polymer composites using Micro-Continuous Liquid Interface Production (μCLIP), a cutting-edge technology known for its speed and precision. A printable ink is formulated with reduced graphene oxide for μCLIP-based 3D printing. The research focuses on optimizing μCLIP parameters to fabricate reduced graphene composites efficiently. The study encompasses material synthesis, ink formulation and explores the resulting material's structural and electrical properties. The marriage of graphene's unique attributes with the rapid prototyping capabilities of μCLIP opens new avenues for scalable and rapid production in applications such as energy storage, sensors, and lightweight structural components. This work contributes to the evolving landscape of advanced materials and additive manufacturing, offering insights into the synthesis, characterization, and potential applications of 3D printed reduced graphene oxide/polymercomposites.
