Interfacial bonding strength of short carbon fiber/acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene composites fabricated by fused deposition modeling

This work aims to characterize the interfacial bonding strength between printed wires of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), carbon nanotube reinforced ABS (CNTABS) and short carbon fiber reinforced ABS (CFABS) specimens fabricated by fused deposition modeling. The in-plane tensile shear test and double notch shear test methods using ±45° specimens were used. The in-plane tensile shear strength of CFABS specimen is close to that of CNTABS...
