3D-printing on textiles – an investigation on adhesion properties of the produced composite materials

Abstract The actual paper is related to adhesive properties of 3D objects printed on cotton textile fabrics. For practical applications prints in the sector, adhesion object substrate an important issue. In current study, two different types polymers are – polylactide acid (PLA) and polyamide 6.6 (Nylon). Altogether six fabrics differing structure, weight thickness evaluated. Also, effect washing enzymatic desizing investigated. printing parameters, best results gained for elevated process temperatures, intermediate speed low Z-distance between head substrate. a treatment by can improve afterwards applied print. presented quite useful future developments substrates, e.g. implement new decorative features or protective functions.
