摘要
As one of the most popular beverages in the world, a large amount of coffee wastes known as the spent coffee grounds (SCGs) is generated daily. In this study, we report a polylactic acid (PLA) composite filament with a high loading of oil-extracted spent coffee grounds (Ox-SCGs) up to 20% by weight and is three-dimensional (3D)-printable with a commercially available consumer-level 3D printer. The Ox-SCG-loaded PLA was found to be able to increase impact energy absorption. As a result, the PLA/Ox-SCG composite exhibited a 418.7% increase in toughness with a measure of 25.24 MJ/m(3) at a 20 wt % Ox-SCG loading and only a 26% storage modulus reduction from the 100% PLA specimens at room temperature. The experimental results indicate that as a waste product from human consumptions and post biodiesel extraction, the Ox-SCG is proven to be a promising additive for composite property modification. The Ox-SCG can not only increase the impact toughness but also reduce the cost of overall 3D-printing materials.
