What is it about?
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the tensile strength, Young’s modulus, dimensional stability and porosity of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)–oil palm fiber composite filament for fused deposition modeling (FDM). A new feedstock material for FDM comprising oil palm fiber and ABS as a matrix was developed by a twin screw extruder. The composite filament contains 0, 3, 5 and 7 Wt.% of oil palm fiber in the ABS matrix.

Why is it important?
This paper highlights a novel natural resource-based feedstock material for FDM. Its mechanical and physical properties were also discovered.
Perspectives
It could be commercialized as prominent material for FDM-3D printers.
