  - The Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) process is increasingly used for the manufacturing
    of individualized and complex structures, which continuously results in new requirements
    regarding the material properties. A characteristic material property for polymers
    is the low thermal conductivity. However, for specific applications, such as additively
    manufactured injection molding tool inserts, increased thermal conductivity is
    advantageous. In this study, the influence of fillers of different types, shapes
    and sizes on the resulting thermal conductivity of compounds is investigated.
    The aim is to analyze the effects of the fillers, considering the FFF-typical
    strand structure. The first step is to characterize the fillers in terms of shape
    and size. Based on this, the resulting thermal conductivity of specimens manufactured
    in the FFF process for different build orientations is specifically examined and
    compared to injection molding. This ensures that the process- and material-related
    anisotropy of the specimens is considered in the analysis. For the evaluation,
    a methodology is developed to be applied in Laser Flash Analysis (LFA), which
    allows the results to be evaluated despite the characteristic FFF surface structure.
    For the final visualization of the influence of the particle size on the particle
    orientation, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images of the relevant polymer
    compounds are made. The investigations provide a data basis regarding the influence
    of the particle type, shape and size on the thermal conductivity as well as for
    the requirement-oriented selection of fillers for processing thermally conductive
    polymer compounds in the FFF process.@eng
