This project investigated the fabrication and properties of stainless steel (SS) reinforced acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS-SS) using 3D printing. Mechanical and physical properties of ABS-SS (with 5, 10, 15, and 23 wt% stainless steel powder additions) were generated and compared with those of the raw ABS. The results demonstrate the feasibility of using 3D printing to create ABS-SS with increased functionality while maintaining/improving their mechanical properties.
