Within Rapid Prototyping technologies are used many types of materials. Many of them are recyclable but there are still as plastic like, so practically they do not degrade in the landfill. Polylactic acid (PLA) is one of the special plastic materials, which are biodegradable and available for 3D printing within Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technology. The question is, if the mechanical prope...

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a type of Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology that becoming increasingly common in numerous applications thanks to its versatility and reduced material waste. However, the complex physical phenomena occurring during extrusion, including dynamics non-Newtonian fluids, viscoelastic behaviors rheology, make use heuristic observations preferable analytical appr...

This work presents the first use of capillary vibrating sharp-edge spray ionization as a nebulization technique for ICP-MS and discusses fused deposition modeling to create dedicated sample introduction chamber.
