Both are favorites of 3D printing users at all experience levels\u2014due to familiarity and many benefits outweighing any respective drawbacks\u2014depending on project requirements. 3D printing enthusiasts new to additive manufacturing (AM) technology and materials like ABS may be surprised, however, to find out that nylons have been used with other conventional methods<em> <\/em>since the 1930s. And they still have it, often winning out over relatively new materials like ABS, created in 1990.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>ABS is widely used in FDM 3D printing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Greater accessibility and affordability of\nfused deposition modeling (FDM) soon resulted in widespread popularity of\nfilaments like Acrylonitrile\nButadiene Styrene (ABS), named appropriately for the three monomers making up\nits composition (and also sometimes acting as an unpredictable and unsteady mix).\nABS is so well-known with users around the globe who have become comfortable,\nthey might not be inclined to reach out for better alternatives\u2014even when such\nchoices could make the difference in winning or losing a client with a better\nprototype, or improving manufacturing processes with higher-quality parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ABS is undeniably\naffordable, strong, and durable enough to draw a dedicated fan club. The opaque\nthermoplastic is also known for its impact resistance, and heat and chemical\nresistance too. Along with Polylactic\nAcid (PLA), ABS continues on as a staple for desktop FDM 3D printing users sold\non basic requirements like tensile strength and thermal stability, and undeniable\ndurability for prototypes and functional parts; however, such loyalty means\ndealing with challenges like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Inconsistency due to the unregulated mixture of properties<\/li><li>Discoloration (yellowing) after continued use<\/li><li>Warping<\/li><li>Shrinking<\/li><li>Lack of adhesion<\/li><li>Inferior layer width<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To continue, ABS is still popular in the\nindustrial settings too. Many engineers still reply on the thermoplastic\nmaterial for rapid prototyping as well as end-use parts with good mechanical\nproperties for applications like medical models, auto parts, housings and\ncasings, and consumer items requiring durability. Not just restricted to 3D\nprinting either, ABS is a big favorite for plastic injection due to its light\nweight, multiple resistance factors, and of course\u2014affordability. It is\nextremely ubiquitous, and because of that many new businesses may be\nconsidering turning to ABS as a general-use material without realizing the greater\nbenefits of other more industrial choices like Nylon 12 [Versatile Plastic].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Nylon 12 usually wins in comparison to\nABS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Nylon 12 [Versatile Plastic] possesses better\nmaterial properties and can produce exponentially tougher parts in terms of\nimpact resistance. With selective laser sintering (SLS), prototyping and\nmanufacturing of functional parts is cost-effective; and with multi jet fusion\n(MJF), one can expect even higher speed in production. SLS as a technology\noverall is advantageous for production of durable parts with complex\ngeometries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Nylon 12 [Versatile Plastic] as the\nchoice of materials in polyamide powder form, industrial users can look forward\nto beautifully precise parts also featuring good flexibility, critical mechanical\nproperties, and better chemical resistance. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Nylon 12 is biocompatible &amp;\nincredibly useful for medical applications<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Like ABS, Nylon 12 [Versatile Plastic] is\nbiocompatible, and more beneficial for use in creating items like 3D printed\nmedical models and devices as there is no need for support structures. Surgical\nplanning tools can be 3D printed, as well as a wide variety of affordable\nprosthetics too\u2014leading to much-needed limb replacements and the ability to\nchange patients\u2019 lives enormously with the innovative trend in patient-specific\ntreatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the un-sintered powder gathered\naround parts in SLS production acts a bolstering system, users are left\nenthusiastically unhindered. Stress centered around creating supports and then\nremoving them in post-production is eliminated, along with the potential for\ncausing harm to parts in the end. This is one of the most touted benefits of 3D\nprinting with Nylon 12 [Versatile Plastic], demonstrating the awesome\nversatility of the material, as well as its advanced nature. Greater freedom in\ndesign is afforded, along with ability to include interlocking and moving\nparts. Multiple colors and premium finishes are available too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Nylon 12 and ABS share numerous pros\nand cons<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Both Nylon\n12 and ABS have plenty in common, including the potential for blending\nwith other plastics and composites, and opportunities for recycling and re-use\nin additive manufacturing processes. However, this also carries over into more\nnegative aspects of 3D printing such as fumes\u2014beginning with the strong and\noften disturbing odor associated with ABS and thought to be caused by styrene\u2014a\ntoxic fume that can cause headaches and other side effects if users are not\nworking in a properly ventilated area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many studies have been performed in recent\nyears regarding toxicity emanating from 3D prints with ABS or Nylon 12 [Versatile\nPlastic], and it would seem that they are both equally hazardous. Research has\nshown that microscopic particles can be inhaled into the lungs and absorbed\ninto the skin. Safety concerns must be emphasized for users working on their\nown, and without question in industrial and factory settings where protective\ngear and comprehensive ventilation systems are necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Industrial 3D printing with Shapeways<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>3D printing services from Shapeways such as\nSLS allow you to reap the rewards of high-performance, quality materials like Nylon\n12 [Versatile Plastic] without having to invest all your business capital in\nthe powerful hardware, software, and materials required for your build.
