Engineering Materials for 3D Printing: Synthesis, Functionalization to Applications delves into the transformative world of additive manufacturing, covering the development and characterization of polymer-based materials crafted through processes such as extrusion, sol-gel, and pulverization. Over the past three decades, 3D printing has revolutionized the creation of functional prototypes, utilizing an array of materials like thermoplastics, resins, metals, and alloys. This book explores the advantages of 3D printing over conventional manufacturing, emphasizing its potential for structural and non-structural engineering applications. It stands out for its focus on meta-structure properties, offering insights into the fabrication of engineering prototypes.

While existing literature extensively covers manufacturing processes, this work bridges the gap by exploring 3D printable materials for diverse engineering uses.

The theoretical foundation of the book helps readers to understand the fundamentals of the process, material development and basic required characteristics of 3D printable materials; in addition, it covers the theory behind the development of smart 3D printed products for structural and non-structural engineering applications
The theoretical information in the book is supported with details of R&D on product development
The practical implications of 3D printing are integrated in the book with real-world case studies in order to promote a better understanding of case studies
The content of the book is organized in such a manner that it is helpful for multiple research disciplines: such as engineering, structural, non-structural engineering, biomedical, waste management, etc
