Zusammenfassung:In one aspect, the present disclosure is directed to a method of manufacturing a substance having an improved tensile strength for additive manufacturing. The method can include providing raw material having a first tensile strength. The raw material can include a polymer. The method can include providing a filler material. The filler material can include clay, single wall carbon nanotubes, multi-wall carbon nanotubes, or boron nitride. The method can include cavitating, within a hydrodynamic cavitation chamber, the raw material and the filler material to produce a substance having a second tensile strength greater than the first tensile strength.
