Polystyrene Will Play an Important Role in 3D Printing

According to EckartHerrmann of Volkswagen, the use of 3D printing is possible to achieve the printing of large samples of automotive and other industries. The current cost of production of these components is very high, EckartHerrmann think that 3D printing is a good way to economically produce these samples. Norbert Neessner also supports these ideas about 3D printing:" Polystyrene will play an important role in turning high-end technology into affordable technology for people around the world." So,we should make measures to get on polystyrene recycling.

In the future, what opportunities polymers can create for the development of new products? According to the changes in the molecular level, can make plastics fully meet almost any desired performance, which is essential for the final product. In addition, it is important to relate plastics to specific functional requirements.

NorbertNiessner thought that these functions may be, for example, self-cleaning surface or "feel cool", so that the plastic not only looks like a metal, but also like the metal touch. Polystyrene may in the future make point-like lighting into flat lighting. This is the way an LED light can evenly distribute the light on a computer screen. Volkswagen found that vehicle interior lighting is a major development trend of the automotive industry to regulate the vehicle on-demand lighting in all regions.

Styrolution also found that the demand for lifestyle-based, ambient and design-based solutions is increasing. NorbertNiessner is convinced that polystyrene will make outstanding contributions in this area for a number of industries. Hans-WernerSchmidt believed that another important contribution of polystyrene reflected in the field of 3D printing. 3D printing has a very bright future, which has opened up many new ways for manufacturers and consumers.
