Abstract Scope |
This study introduces an innovative method for producing biomass-composites using selective laser sintering (SLS), utilizing peanut-husk powders (PP) and Polyethersulfone/(PES) to produce PP/PES (PPC). The aim is to expand material options for SLS applications and improve PPC mechanical properties.
– PPC thermo-physical properties were analyzed to estimate suitable-temperatures. PPC samples were produced utilizing AFS-360-SLS, and their mechanical strengths were assessed via Byes-3003 machine. An orthogonal experimental method was employed to optimize SLS parameters.
– PPC parts' properties were directly influenced by SLS parameters. Through orthogonal analysis, optimal parameters were determined, resulting in enhanced PPC properties. Improved PPC pieces exhibited superior mechanical properties compared to others, a validation confirmed through ANSYS simulation.
– Optimized parameters enhance PPC's suitability for wooden-floors and furniture-manufacturing, addressing current SLS material limitations and peanut-husk-waste disposal concerns.
–This study combines theoretical, experimental, and simulation methods to ensure the reliability of optimized parameters, guaranteeing the PPC future applicability. |
