Additive Manufacturing and Characterization of Polystyrene for Thermal Insulation Applications

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 4, April 2026.
Material Extrusion Additive Manufacturing (MEAM) is proposed to fabricate custom atactic Polystyrene (aPS) panels for thermal insulation. By controlling the internal octahedral lattice structure, the optimized process enables the production of parts with a thermal conductivity of 0.03 W/(mK).
