Abstract

Nowadays, research has shown the emergence of the 3D printing method for printing a functionalized component. Graphene nanomaterial has an enormous conducting property that can compete with conducting materials like copper and silicon. This paper describes the electrical conductivity investigation of 3D-printed graphene nanomaterial in extrusion-based 3D printing methods. In extrusion, two different approaches of the 3D printing method were used to print the graphene-based structure: the fused deposition modeling (FDM) method and the direct ink writing (DIW) method. Both printing methods follow the two printing processes and select material forms. Selection of testing was made to analyze the characterization variations in the printed material, such as XRD, TGA, viscosity, Raman shift, and Scanning Electron Microscopy analyses, which shows the changes of effect in the conductivity due to various parameter differences in both the printing methods. A four-point probe technique was used to analyze the electrical conductivity of the two different methods. These analysis results prove that the characterization variations differ in the FDM and DIW printed models. ; Web of Science ; 11 ; art. no. 1328347
