Shear viscosity measurements on Polyamide-12 polymers for laser sintering

Purpose – Laser sintering kinetics and part reliability are critically dependent on the melt viscosity of materials, including polyamide 12 (PA-12). The purpose of this paper is to characterise the viscosity of PA-12 powders using alternative scientific methods: constrained boundary flows (capillary...
