  • Patent number: 11458697
    Abstract: The present invention refers to a method for polishing polyamide objects obtained by additive manufacturing or 3D printing techniques, which comprises immersion of the polyamide object in a mixture of formic acid and dichloromethane at room temperature for a period of time comprised between 5 seconds and 6 minutes. This method allows effectively elimination or reduction of the roughness of the polyamide objects obtained by additive manufacturing or 3D printing techniques, for example, obtained by techniques such as the Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) with a simple procedure which does not require neither high temperatures nor extended treatment times. The present invention also refers to the object obtainable according to such method.

  • Publication number: 20150368122
    Abstract: Liquid treatment filter with magnetite nanoparticles and corresponding methods. Liquid treatment filter comprising a support made of a polymeric material having at least one functional group of the group made up of carboxyl and thiol, loaded with SPION (SuperParamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles). The support is advantageously made of fibres of hydrolysed polyacrylonitrile of general formula wherein n has a value comprised between 0.01 and 1, and wherein the method for manufacturing comprises: [a] a step of electrospinning in which a solution of polyacrylonitrile is prepared in a solvent with a polyacrylonitrile content comprised between 5 and 80% by weight, with respect to the total weight of the solution, [b] a step of hydrolysis of the PAN fibres formed in step [a], and [c] a step of loading the fibres with SPION.
