Earlier this year, finnish nanodiamond manufacturer carbodeon and dutch 3d printing expert tiamet 3d jointly developed nanodiamond enhanced 3d printing material: udiamond.  On September 17, 2018, 3d Tiger learned from foreign media that the 3d printed materials had been put on the market.  Pla 3d printing materials based on nano diamond can realize faster 3d printing and improve the mechanical durability of 3d printing components.  Nanometer diamond itself has the ability to shape the structure and properties of 3d printing materials.  In addition, nano diamond improves the conductivity of pla.  Carbodeon's tests show that using consumer-grade 3d printers, udiamond materials are also easy to print, and the printing speed can be increased to 500 mm/s, and the printing components also have better mechanical properties.  Carbodeon CEO vesamyllymki said: "udiamond materials will be sold in filament and granular forms, and Finland's Technology Research Center (vtt) has been a long-term and reliable partner."  The Finnish Technology Research Center (vtt) optimized the pla composite material created by carbodeon's udiamond material for 3d printing and used it to produce industrial-scale uniform dispersion of nano-diamond.  .  "Using our chemical testing equipment, we have produced nano-dispersed materials needed for melt processing in vtt, thus supporting the creation of new products," said jarmo ropponen, head of the vtt Chemical Pilot Research Group.  Nanometer diamond is diamond particles produced by explosion, and they are one of the materials with the strongest and hardest thermal conductivity known at present.  Studies have shown that if nanoparticles are inhaled, they will have some health effects on human body, and they will cause oxidative stress on heart, lung and brain.  Processing in a well ventilated environment is a way to reduce risks.  According to the evaluation of epa and reach, carbodeon nano diamond has been proved to be non-toxic and suitable for various applications.  "With the addition of nano diamond, plastic melting becomes easier and mechanical properties are improved," vtt research scientist satu pasanen said.  "Based on preliminary tests, the modulus of the 3d printed test piece can be increased by more than 200% compared with the pla material already on the market.  At present, vtt has already produced the first batch of 600 kilograms of materials, which carbodeon has improved into commercial products.  "carbodeon's nano-diamond materials have extensive patent protection.  Udiamond material is suitable for professional and consumer grade fff/fdm 3d printers, and the price is moderate, 500g spool only needs 35 euros.  You can learn more about udiamond and order the product on carbodeon's website.
