Mechanical properties and fracture characterization of additive manufacturing polyamide 12 after accelerated weathering

Tuomas Puttonen et al.

Summary: This study compared the mechanical properties of additive manufacturing and conventionally manufactured plastics after weathering, finding that PA12 and PA66 from additive manufacturing were significantly affected by weathering, while carbon reinforced PA12 showed the best aging resistance due to the UV varnish.
