Abstract:
Provided are a cellulose composite material, a three-dimensional (3D) printing material and a 3D printing structure including the cellulose composite material, and a method of manufacturing a 3D printing structure using the cellulose composite material. The cellulose material may be used as a 3D printable eco-friendly material using cellulose that is an eco-friendly natural material and a compound having a catechol group that is derived from nature, and a structure implemented with 3D printing has excellent tensile strength or compressive strength.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an ink composition containing a multifunctional adhesive suitable for a three-dimensional (3D) printer and the use thereof. The multifunctional adhesive of the present invention contains a compound with a catechol group and exhibits excellent adhesion to various materials (e.g. dry plaster powders, polymers, metals, ceramics, and composite materials). The use of the ink composition of the present invention containing the multifunctional adhesive enables the processing of various functional materials that were difficult to fabricate into a 3D structure. Therefore, it is highly likely that the ink composition of the present invention can effectively create a market for functional materials for a 3D printer and find new areas of application (e.g. automotive, medical, fashion, aviation/aerospace, construction, consumer electronics, entertainment, etc.).
