Abstract

A higher product diversification range with excellent physical, mechanical and chemical properties make Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials a prominent candidate for engineering applications. But, conventional manufacturing techniques always face critical issues during the development of FRP's complex and intrinsic profile. In recent years, Additive Manufacturing (AM) or 3-D printing proves itself a robust technique to produce application-specific parts of FRP composites with a higher degree of customization. In comparison to other 3D printing techniques, Stereolithography (SLA) is able to create mechanically stable objects with higher processing speed. This information paves the way for the present review article. This paper reviews the recent advancement of SLA technique to develop objects of FRP composite materials.
