Characterization of Extruded Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) Filament Prepared for 3D Printing
Fused filament fabrication (FFF) has nowadays become a popular 3-dimensional (3D) printing technique for the fabrication of polymeric components with customized and complex-shape design, including biomedical implants. However, the use of this technique is often constrained by the limited number of polymeric materials that can be printed to form the final product. Despite excellent wear resistance and widely used as the acetabular component of a joint prosthesis, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is among such the rarely-found filament material in the market. In this research, preliminary work to fabricate UHMWPE filament for the FFF processing is carried out by using extrusion. The influences of extrusion temperature, addition of polyethylene glycol (PEG), and rotational speed of the extruder’s screw on the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of the extruded UHMWPE filament were determined. The result demonstrated no change in the chemical compositions of the filament due to the processing parameters applied, as noted from the FTIR spectra. The result of the tensile test showed that the highest tensile strength of UHMWPE filaments could reach 23.5 MPa.
