| Abstract | This research explores the potential and significance of 3D printing natural fiber composite (NFC) materials. The primary objective is to investigate the mechanical, thermal, and environmental properties of NFC filaments, mainly focusing on biodegradable, renewable fibers such as jute, hemp, flax, and kenaf. In addition to studying the properties of NFCs, our research delves into the challenges associated with processing, including moisture absorption and fiber-matrix interfacial bonding. The novelty of this work lies in the convergence of traditional composite materials with the versatility of 3D printing technology. NFC filaments offer unique advantages in terms of sustainability, and we examine their potential contributions to the circular economy. By using eco-friendly NFC materials in 3D printing, we aim to present a viable, environmentally responsible alternative to conventional synthetic composites. The importance of 3D printing NFCs stems from the ways their use can align with sustainability goals. These materials provide the advantages of renewability, reduced carbon impact, and in some cases, biodegradability. Their applications extend to various industries, such as automotive, construction, and packaging, where eco-friendly materials are increasingly sought. Such applications showcase the ways in which NFC-based 3D printing can contribute to a more environmentally responsible and sustainable future. This research explores the mechanical, thermal, and environmental properties of NFC materials, highlighting their unique advantages for 3D printing and the potential to have eco-friendly applications in diverse industries. |
