    Abstract: Additive manufacturing processes, such as fused filament fabrication, may be employed to form printed objects in a range of shapes. It is sometimes desirable to form conductive traces upon the surface of a printed object. Conductive traces and similar features may be introduced in conjunction with fused filament fabrication processes by incorporating a metal precursor in a polymer filament having a filament body comprising a thermoplastic polymer, and forming a printed object from the polymer filament through layer-by-layer deposition, in which the metal precursor remains substantially unconverted to metal while forming the printed object. Suitable polymer filaments compatible with fused filament fabrication may comprise a thermoplastic polymer defining a filament body, and a metal precursor contacting the filament body, in which the metal precursor is activatable to form metal islands upon laser irradiation.

    Abstract: Cold pressure fix toner compositions include at least one crystalline polyester having a melting point in a range from about 30° C. to about 130° C., a rosin acid-based polyester resin and an amorphous polyester having a Tg higher than the rosin acid-based polyester. The crystalline polyester can have a melting point in a range from about 30° C. to about 130° C., the rosin acid-based polyester resin can have a Tg in a range from about 0° C. to about −45° C. and an amorphous polyester having a Tg in a range from about 40° C. to about 70° C. The temperature difference between the rosin acid-based polyester resin and the amorphous polyester resin can be in a range from about 30° C. to about 110° C.

    Abstract: A cold pressure fix toner composition includes at least one crystalline polyester material having a melting point in a range from about 30° C. to about 130° C. and at least one C16 to C80 amorphous organic material having a Tg of from about −30° C. to about 70° C. A method of cold pressure fix toner application includes providing the cold pressure fix toner composition, disposing the cold pressure fix toner composition on a substrate, and applying pressure to the disposed composition on the substrate under cold pressure fixing conditions. A latex can be formed from the cold pressure fix toner composition.
