Investigation of the ageing conditions of PEEK powder for the selective laser sintering process

ABSTRACTAgeing mechanism of PEEK powders at optimal powder bed temperature (Tb) and factors affecting their reusability remain unclear. This study investigated effects of gas type (air, nitrogen, and argon) and holding time (0–8 h) on physico-chemical properties of PEEK powders at optimal Tb. The ha...
