  text: The high flammability of components manufactured by laser sintering (LS) using
    standard polyamide 12 (PA12) powder still severely restricts their use in industries
    such as electronics, aviation, and transportation. A key factor for the further
    establishment of LS is the expansion of the material portfolio with, for example,
    refreshable and halogen-free flame-retardant (FR) powder materials. Accordingly,
    various halogen-free FRs are investigated in this work and evaluated with respect
    to their use in LS. First, their decomposition behavior and mode of action are
    examined. Subsequently, the additives are dry blended with PA12 to investigate
    properties relevant for LS, such as particle morphology, thermal behavior and
    melt viscosity. Afterwards, test specimens for UL94 vertical flame-retardancy
    tests are produced by processing the dry blends on an EOS P3 LS system. Finally,
    the process stability of the process-aged powder blends is investigated by again
    examining the thermal behavior and melt viscosity.

  text: In the laser sintering technology, the semi-crystalline polymer material is
    exposed to elevated temperatures during processing, which leads to serious material
    ageing for most materials. This has already been investigated intensively by various
    authors. However, the ageing of the material at ambient temperatures during shelf
    life has not been the focus so far. The need to analyse the shelf life can be
    derived from an ecological and economic point of view. This work is focusing on
    the shelf life of PA2200 (PA12). To reduce the potential influences of powder
    production fluctuations, two different powder batches stored for 5.5 years and
    6.5 years are investigated and compared to a reference powder produced 0.5 years
    before these investigations. Multiple powder analyses and part characterisations
    have been performed. A significant yellowing and molecular chain length reduction
    can be derived from the measurement results. Whereas the influence on mechanical
    part performance was minor, the parts built with the stored powders are more yellowish.
    As it is most likely that this is due to the consumption of polyamide stabilisers,
    it can be assumed that these parts will be subject to significantly faster ageing.
    Therefore, it is still not recommended to use the stored powders for critical
    parts or light intense and humid environments.
