Issues of development of research equipment elements by FDM printing

Abstract

The article presents the results of the analysis on the issue of using additive technologies in the field of chemistry and petrochemistry. Possible areas of application are identified and a range of tasks in the practice of scientific experiment in the study of chemical and petrochemical processes that can be effectively solved with the help of such tools are outlined. It is shown that low-cost methods for developing models of technological equipment elements based on FDM printing can be quite effectively applied in practice. The conclusion is made on the basis of a study of the strength, resistance to strong solvents and tightness of the created structures.
