Popis: | In this pilot-scale study, a wide range of potential emissions were evaluated for four types of additive manufacturing (AM) machines. These included material extrusion (using acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene [ABS]); material jetting (using liquid photopolymer); powder bed fusion (using nylon); and vat photopolymerization (using liquid photopolymer) in an industrial laboratory setting. During isolated operation of AM machines, adjacent area samples were collected for compounds of potential concern (COPCs), including total and individual volatile organic compounds (VOCs), nano- and micron-sized particulate matter, and inorganic gases. A total of 61 compounds were also sampled using a canister followed by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry analysis. Most COPCs were not detected or were measured at concentrations far below relevant occupational exposure limits (OELs) during AM machine operations. Submicron particles, predominantly nanoparticles, were produced during material extrusion printing using ABS at approximately 12,000 particles per cubic centimeter (p cm |
