Infill Density Effects on the Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Copper‐Plated 3D Printed Parts

Back cover: The issue of the poor mechanical properties of 3D printed plastic parts can be solved by electroplating with a suitable metal coating. On the other hand, since metal adhesion on plastics is usually poor, the infill density can be exploited to achieve a mechanical interlocking that enhances structural properties. Thermal properties also benefit greatly from this procedure, which is highlighted in article 2300203 by Francesco Mollica and co‐workers.
