The performance of Polysulfide Bromide Flow Batteries (PBS) is depended on the design of the electrodes, which plays a crucial role in ensuring optimal electrolyte distribution and conductivity. These factors are essential for facilitating efficient electrochemical kinetics. This study introduces a novel approach to electrode fabrication using polyacrylonitrile/graphene composites through 3D printing, which enhances structural uniformity and electrical conductivity. The incorporation of reduced graphene oxide, with an electrical conductivity of 23 S/m, into polyacrylonitrile-based electrodes substantially improves their electrical conductivity. Unlike traditional techniques that produce randomly oriented fibers, 3D printing offers precise control over electrode architecture. This enables uniform electrolyte…

In this work, artificial bones composed of hydroxyapatite (HA)/polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and polylactic acid (PLA) were prepared as a potential replacement for natural bone. The cylindrical specimens included an auxetic system with artificial osteons. HA/PAN and PLA were used to fabricate composite filaments by fused deposition modeling three-dimensional (3D) printing, and the obtained filaments were applied to produce reentrant artificial bone materials. Scanning electron microscopy was used to analyze the scaffold morphology and functional groups. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy was used for elemental analysis. The compressive properties of the samples were studied to determine the optimal scaffolding prototype. Compressive tests were also…
