Abstract

In the present period there has been an increasing awareness of the utilization of cost-effective greener resources to design biodegradable polymer composite materials in biomedical additive manufacturing (AM) applications owing to their excellent physical and mechanical properties, lightweight, high strength, stiffness, fatigue, and good corrosion resistance compared to the metal and ceramics materials. On the other hand, the production of bioplastic-based products increased to approximately 30% due to their remarkable role to diminish the greenhouse effect and petroleum-based pollution. Nevertheless, biodegradable polymers are renewable substitutes for petroleum-based AM materials with various advantages such as being biocompatible, biodegradable, bioresorbable, non-toxic, recyclable, and exhibiting better mechanical properties. This chapter discusses the design and preparation of biodegradable polymer composites for AM biomedical applications with different techniques.
