High filled polylactide/multiwall carbon nanotube composites were subjected to multiple extrusions using single-screw and twin-screw extruders. Samples of the processed composites were characterized by SEM, XRD, Raman, and FTIR spectroscopy. Thermal and rheological properties were investigated by DSC and MFR analyses. Subsequent extrusions resulted in decreased torque and process efficiency, which is a consequence of the viscosity reduction of PLA. Thermal and rheological properties of composites changed after each extrusion as well. As revealed by DSC analyses, cold crystallization temperature showed a tendency to decrease after each process, whereas cold crystallization enthalpy ΔHcc increased significantly. Melt flow rate, which is indicative of the polymer degradation, increased after each extrusion.

Introduction: This systematic review and meta-analysis assess the impact of the XP-endo Shaper (XPS) on postoperative pain following root canal treatment (RCTs) and compare its efficacy with other endodontic systems.
Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in MEDLINE, Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library from January 2000 to August 2024. Randomized controlled trials using XPS and reporting postoperative pain were included.

Micro/nanoscale 3D bioelectrodes gain increasing interest for electrophysiological recording of electroactive cells. Although 3D printing has shown promise to flexibly fabricate 3D bioelectronics compared with conventional microfabrication, relatively-low resolution limits the printed bioelectrode for high-quality signal monitoring. Here, a novel multi-material electrohydrodynamic printing (EHDP) strategy is proposed to fabricate bioelectronics with sub-microscale 3D gold pillars for in vitro electrophysiological recordings.

Extrusion-based 3D bioprinting is one of the most promising and widely used technologies in bioprinting. However, the development of bioprintable, biocompatible bioinks with tailored mechanical and biological properties remains a major challenge in this field. Alginate dialdehyde-gelatin (ADA-GEL) hydrogels face these difficulties and enable to tune the mechanical properties depending on the degree of oxidation (% DO) of ADA.

For wider adoption of the material extrusion (MatEx)-based additive manufacturing (AM) process, it is important to understand the systems for an improved production rate of the machine. This AM process is the most adaptable and popular due to its wide availability, scalability, compatibility with a broad range of thermoplastic materials, and decreasing cost of personal MatEx-based systems. The performance limits are being explored by many researchers, but none have tried to find the efficacy of different kinematic configurations.
