Abstract

The dependences of the mechanical and thermophysical characteristics in samples with different ratios of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and liquid crystalline polymers (LCP), synthesized by layer-by-layer filament deposition, are shown. It has been shown for certain concentrations, adding LCP to PEEK can increase the mechanical characteristics compared to the material synthesized by FDM from unfilled PEEK. The presence of fibrils and coaxial shells between the layers of 3D-synthesized organic composite plastic and inside the threads themselves is shown. A relationship has been proposed between the microstructure of samples synthesized by FDM and their mechanical properties.
