Excited to share our latest research on the 3D printability of post-industrial recycled polypropylene (rPP)! 😊 

In this work, we explore how real-time infrared imaging can be used to predict and optimize printing parameters. Through in-situ thermal analysis, we establish process–structure–property relationships critical to improving the performance of recycled semicrystalline polymers. This study represents an important step toward more sustainable additive manufacturing.

Thanks to Arif Rochman, Paul Refalo, and the University of Malta for this opportunity, and a big thank you also to Toly Products Limited, Malta, for making this work possible.
