Comprehensive Review: Technological Approaches, Properties, and Applications of Pure and Reinforced Polyamide 6 (PA6) and Polyamide 12 (PA12) Composite Materials

This article presents a comprehensive analysis of polyamide 6 (PA6) and polyamide 12 (PA12) composites fabricated using additive manufacturing technologies such as Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) and Multi Jet Fusion (MJF). It focuses on the mechanical properties, preparation processes, and the influence of technological parameters on the final material characteristics. PA6 is characterized by a higher degree of crystallinity, contributing to its strength and resistance to high temperatures, whereas PA12 exhibits a more amorphous structure, offering better dimensional stability and lower moisture absorption. The article examines these properties and their implications for the use of composites in various…
