Microwave dielectric characterisation of 3D-printed BaTiO3/ABS polymer composites

Microwave dielectric characterisation of 3D-printed BaTiO3/ABS polymer composites, where the Noztek Pro extruder was heavily used to produce the results. The BaTiO3 microparticles (nominal particle size < 3 μm, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis) were dispersed in ABS (MFI-22, Styrolution, Frankfurt am Main) by first dissolving the ABS pellets in acetone, typically using about one litre of acetone per 200 g of ABS.
