Nanoplastics are emerging contaminants of concern for living organisms and ecosystems,
yet nanoplastics are difficult to extract and analyse. Once released into the environment, the …

Contamination of the environment with nano-and microplastic particles (NMPs) and its
putative adverse effects on organisms, ecosystems, and human health is gaining increasing …

The emission of ultrafine particles (UFP) and gaseous pollutants from 3D printing has been
increasingly gaining attention in recent years due to potential health risks. The physical and …

Fused filament fabrication (FFF), also known as fused deposition modeling, is the leading
technology for polymer‐based additive manufacturing. The simplicity, along with the …

Consumer-level 3D printers emit ultrafine and fine particles, though little is known about their
chemical composition or potential toxicity. We report chemical characteristics of the particles …

During extrusion of some polymers, fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3-D printers emit billions
of particles per minute and numerous organic compounds. The scope of this study was to …

Fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printers, the most popular choice among home
hobbyists, have been shown to release volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) and billions of …

Fused filament fabrication (FFF) or 3D printing is a growing technology used in industry,
cottage industry and for consumer applications. Low-cost 3D printing devices have become …

3D printing, a technology that allows the layer-by-layer construction of complex 3D
structures from a range of precursor materials, has shown promising applicability in …

This comprehensive review introduces occupational (industrial) hygienists and toxicologists
to the seven basic additive manufacturing (AM) process categories. Forty-six articles were …
