Multi-material 3D Printing of Thermoplastic Elastomers for Development of Soft Robotic Structures with Integrated Sensor Elements
<p>Embedded sensing can benefit soft robots with the ability to interact with their environment but producing embedded soft sensors can be challenging. Multi-material Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) additive manufacturing allows producing complex structures, by combining more than one kind of polymeric material. For multi-material FDM, conductive thermoplastic elastomer filaments have been developed. This allows the printing of flexible functional structures, based on thermoplastic elastomer structures with conductive paths that are of great interest for stretchable electronics and soft robotic applications. In this study, stretchable piezoresistive elastomer strain sensor composites were successfully produced by using multi-material FDM. A piezoresistive thermoplastic elastomer was printed on the top of a nonconductive, flexible thermoplastic elastomer strip using FDM multi-material 3D printer. FDM elastomer filaments with different shore hardness as substrate materials for the gripper structure were used. The hardness of the elastomer affected the printability and the adhesion to the conductive elastomer material, which was used as a strain sensor material. The hardness affected the strain sensor properties too. The piezoresistive response, dynamic behavior, drift, relaxation and sensitivity of the printed multi-material strips were investigated by tensile tests. Soft robotic grippers with integrated sensing elements to detect deformation while touching the objective were selected as a case study. The soft grippers with the integrated sensors exhibited intelligent response by recognizing when they were griping a small or big object and when an obstacle was inhibiting their function.</p>
Heterolayered carbon allotrope architectonics via multi-material 3D printing for advanced electrochemical devices
<p>3D printing has become a powerful technique in electrochemistry for fabricating electrodes, thanks to readily available conductive nanocomposite filaments, such as those based on carbon fillers (i.e., carbon nanotubes (CNTs) or carbon black (CB)) within an insulating polymeric matrix like polylactic acid (PLA). Inspired by inorganic heterostructures that enhance the functional characteristics of nanomaterials, we fabricated hetero-layered 3D printed devices based on carbon allotropes using a layer-by-layer assembly approach. The heterolayers were customised through the alternate integration of different carbon allotrope filaments via a multi-material 3D printing technique, allowing for a time-effective method to enhance electrochemical performance. As a first demonstration of applicability, CNT/PLA and CB/PLA filaments were utilised to construct ordered hetero-layered carbon-based electrodes. This contrasts with conventional methods where various carbon species are mixed in the same composite-based filament used for building electrochemical devices. Multi-material 3D-printed carbon electrodes exhibit improved electrochemical performance in energy conversion (e.g., hydrogen evolution reaction or HER) and sensing applications (e.g., ascorbic acid detection) compared to single-material electrodes. This work paves the way for manufacturing advanced 3D-printed heterolayered electrodes with enhanced electrochemical activity through multi-material 3D printing technology.</p>
