Methods for quantifying the stable sintering region in laser sintered polyamide-12

Manufacturing complex parts by the laser sintering process requires a minimum amount of energy input for consolidation of polymer particles to occur; however too much energy can result in a decline in mechanical properties. This decrease is thought to be the result of polymer chain degradation. A st...
