Cost-effective and high-performance 3D printing Polymers are driving additive manufacturing polymer market growth. ABS material is tough. DLP and SL technologies use polylactic acid (PLA), a biodegradable polymer with better strength. However, some additive manufacturing companies are creating new polymers to meet rising industrial demand for 3D printing. In April 2021, Germany-based speciality chemicals manufacturer Evonik Industries AG debuted its INFINAM brand of photopolymers for 3D printing. Due to their toughness and impact resistance, the business recommends these polymer resins for DLP and SL procedures. Some players are also developing a low-cost SLS printing technique for high-performance polymers with other companies. In March 2019, specialty chemicals and advanced materials manufacturer Solvay S.A. collaborated with Belgian selective powder deposition systems startup Aerosint to develop an economically viable SLS printing process for high-performance polymers like polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) and polyetheretherketone (PEEK).
