Abstract
The paper provides an overview on the materials used in the 3D printing technology (the Polish and foreign market) with a particular focus on flexible filaments and their possible application in the industry. There are described the techniques of 3D printing and modern filaments available on the market. There is observed the increase of interest in the production of products from filaments based on thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), including the applications in the electronics and medicine, especially in tissue engineering. Ability to modify the physical and mechanical properties of thermoplastic elastomers, combined with their unique elastic and processability properties, opens new possibilities for engineers, designers and bio-engineers. The possibility to use new materials in 3D printing can contribute to faster development of research and accelerates implementation of innovative products.
