Due to the recent innovations in 3D-printed polymers research, this study presents a systematic overview of the area, exposing gaps and interesting directions for future research. The current study investigated the trend of research growth using 2558 research papers with 97131 references data collected from the Web of Science Core Collection database (WOS), over the period from 2005 to May 2022, using bibliographic coupling and keyword co-occurrence. The research results allow the authors to conclude that the number of publications in this field's importance has grown tremendously over the last 20 years, with the United States, China, United Kingdom, and India emerging as the countries that publish the most. The top five researchers in 3D printed polymer composite were also identified. |
