Abstract

According to the great impact of additive technology on the development of modern industry, a lot of research is being done to obtain 3D printed parts with better properties. This research is extremely important because there are no scientific papers in the field of post dyeing of acrylonitrile/butadiene/styrene (ABS) 3D printed parts. The experiment was carried out using disperse dyes on ABS specimens. The obtained coloration of the specimens was in the primary colors (yellow, red, and blue) in the specified dyestuff concentration range and was evaluated using an objective CIELab system. Based on the obtained color parameters, remission values and Kubelka-Munk coefficient, dye mixtures and an ombre effect were performed to obtain patterns in the desired hues. Abrasion resistance of disperse dyed specimens was tested using different abrasive materials over a wide range of fineness to simulate different indoor and outdoor soils and was compared to abrasion resistance of specimens produced from the industrially dyed wire with the master batch. The results show that 3D printed ABS products can be produced in one or more desired shades with satisfactory abrasion resistance. This undoubtedly represents the added value of 3D printed ABS parts and extends their application to the field of creative industries and design, specifically footwear design.

Highlights

  • One of the Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes that enables rapid prototyping or small batch production is the Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) process

  • Additive manufacturing based on FDM or the synonymous 3D printing has already had a significant impact on various industries and will continue to be a key technology in the coming years as the technology evolves [1–6]. 3D printing is a powerful technology that is leading to significant changes in many areas, including the fashion industry

  • The results of this research can have a significant impact on the added value of 3D printed ABS products, as it has been shown that a color hue or even a variegated pattern with good abrasion resistance can be produced for prototypes

Summary

Introduction

One of the Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes that enables rapid prototyping or small batch production is the Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) process. Additive manufacturing based on FDM or the synonymous 3D printing has already had a significant impact on various industries and will continue to be a key technology in the coming years as the technology evolves [1–6]. Design and 3D printing have become increasingly popular in the manufacture of garments and footwear. It is more commonly used in the production of small products such as accessories, jewelry, shoe heels, etc. TThhee ppoossssiibbiilliittyy ooff oobbttaaiinniinngg ccoolloorreedd 33DD pprriinntteedd oobbjjeeccttss aass aa ppoosstt--ttrreeaattmmeenntt pprroocceessss iiss rreeaalliizzeedd,, ffoorr eexxaammppllee,, bbyy aappppllyyiinngg ppllaassttiicc ffiillmmss ttoo 33DD pprriinntteedd mmooddeellss ttrreeaatteedd aassmmooldldss[2[200].].PPoolylymmererdydeyienigngisiussuusaullaylldyodnoenuesiunsgindgisdpiesrpseerdsyeedsywesithwtihthe tmheasmtearsbteartcbha.tcThh.iTs hbirsinbgrisnwgsitwh iitththitetlhaecklaockf borfebardetahditnh tihnethraenrgaengoef sohfasdheasd,eisn, iandadditdioitniotno tiotsintsunmuemroeurosuasdavdavnatangteasg,ems, aminaliynltyhethfaesftansetsnsepssropproerpteierstie[2s2[–2225–]2. The implementation of research in the field of footwear industry ensures sustainability due to the realization of the unique personalized products. To accentuate the ombre effect in the context of aesthetics and visual added value, the surfaces of the specimen were patterned in waves and pyramid patterns
