Improvement in interfacial fracture toughness of multi-material additively manufactured composites through thermal annealing

An experimental investigation is performed to investigate the effect of post-processing heat treatment on the interfacial fracture toughness of bi-material additively manufactured semi-crystalline polymer composite. An asymmetric double cantilever beam (ADCB) and single-leg bending (SLB) specimens m...
