What is Additive Manufacturing (AM)?

A technical committee under ASTM international finally defined these processes appropriately as Additive Manufacturing (AM)

as the technology builds 3D parts by adding material

as compared to subtractive manufacturing.

According to ISO/ASTM 52900-2015

Additive manufacturing is commonly given to the technologies that use successive layers of material to create a three-dimensional object. By using various techniques the printer builds the 3D geometry by constructing a thin 2D plane layer by layer.

There are seven main categories of AM technologies viz Vat photopolymerisation

Material Extrusion

Material Jetting

Binder Jetting

Powder bed fusion

Direct energy deposition and Sheet lamination.

Additive manufacturing technology types

Many companies have invented and introduced new techniques and Because the technology is fairly new

the companies who develop and introduce different techniques come up with their own marketing terms for the process

even though the core technique might be the same.

As per ISO/ASTM standards AM can be divided into the following seven process categories or types according to the techniques used to create those layers. Though companies who have developed some of the AM technologies have their own names.

Vat Photo Polymerization

In this process

a liquid photopolymer is selectively cured by light-activated polymerization to create a 3D part. It is based on the curing and hardening of photopolymers on exposure to ultraviolet radiation. The main types of this technology are Stereolithography (SLA)

Digital Light Processing (DLP) and Continuous Digital Light Processing. Only Plastic can be printed using these technologies.

Binder jetting process

As the name implies this technique selectively deposits the bonding agent a binding liquid to join the powder material together to form a 3D part. This process is different to any other AM technology as it does not employ heat during the process like others to fuse the material.

Directed energy deposition

Direct energy deposition uses focused thermal energy such as a laser

electron beam

or plasma arc to fuse materials by melting as they are being deposited. Types include LENS

EBAM.

Benefits of cosmetics

While some people believe that cosmetic and personal care products are a recent invention

discoveries of their use and widespread benefits go back thousands of years. Today

Europe’s 500 million consumers use them to protect their health

enhance wellbeing and boost their self-esteem.

Functional benefits

Cosmetics contribute to wellbeing and healthy lifestyles. Our hands carry pathogens from contaminated sources; so simple tasks such as washing hands with soap can help prevent serious illness. Indeed

multiple studies have shown that the leading causes of child mortality in developing countries

diarrhoea and respiratory infections

can be prevented by hand washing with soap. The use of toothpaste

particularly when containing fluoride

reduces the prevalence of dental caries. Toothpaste reduces plaque and tartar

which can lead to tooth damage and gum disease. Beyond health

there are economic advantages to dental care: there is strong evidence that the benefits of preventing tooth decay far exceed the costs of treatment. Indeed

if we assume that

without toothpaste

total expenditure on oral health would be 5% higher

the total benefits of using toothpaste (in terms of avoided costs) would be approximately €26.5 billion by 2020.

Exposure to ultraviolet radiation is the only established exogenous causal factor for melanoma

a type of skin cancer that can spread to other organs of the body. Consistent and optimal use of sunscreen may prevent the incidence of melanoma. A study carried out between 1992 and 2006 and reported in ‘Reduced melanoma after regular sunscreen use: randomised trial follow up’ in the Journal of Clinical Oncology (2011) examined the cancer rates of two groups of adults aged between 25 and 75 years old. One used sunscreen daily and the other did so at their discretional frequency. It was found that invasive melanoma was reduced by 75% for approximately 15 years after trial cessation in the group that applied sunscreen daily.

Emotional benefits

Beyond physical health

cosmetics can help to improve our mood

enhance our appearance and boost our self-esteem. They can also help to exhibit personal style and

as such

are an important means of social expression. In a study by FEBEA

over 60% of respondents claimed that cosmetics have a positive impact on well-being

image

self-confidence and mood

with a large proportion (+40%) also identifying benefits in terms of social life

love life

family life

professional life and health.

A study published by IKW

the German Cosmetic

Toiletry

Perfumery and Detergent Association

assessing the self-perception of adolescents and young adults

found that 73% believe body and beauty care is very important in their lives. Moreover

85% feel safer when they use cosmetics products

and 63% feel more attractive when they do so.

Synthetic Chemical

Synthetic chemicals are usually applied as additives in everyday products

which can help to improve the flexibility and versatility of these materials. For instance

plasticizers and flame retardants are commonly used in plastic products and electronic products respectively. However

many of the chemicals used in these products will inevitably enter the environment. Some synthetic chemicals can exhibit environmental persistence and possess characteristics of bioaccumulation

which can induce acute or chronic toxicity for organisms and further influence both ecological and human health. Therefore

despite the fact that the chemicals in these products play an important role for promoting the development of human society

the risks they pose to the environmental health of our planet must not be neglected.

Biopeptide Basics

Proteins and peptides alike are made of strings of proteinogenic

or standard

amino acids-22 organic chemical building blocks found in the human body. Depending whom you ask

a protein-to gain its moniker-must have more than 20

40

or 50 amino acids; an average protein in the human body

though

is much larger than this

with somewhere around 500 amino acids. A peptide is any string of at least two amino acids that has fewer than this designated cut-off-a few dozen building blocks rather than a few hundred.

The differences between proteins and peptides

while they are rooted in size

do not end with how large or small they are. Because peptides are so short

they generally do not fold into complex structures like larger proteins; instead of forming helices

sheets

large complexes

and globules

peptides remain a loose

two-dimensional string inside cells. And because of both their small size and lack of organized structure

peptides tend to be able to sneak through spaces where larger proteins can't fit-they can penetrate the walls of the intestines

human skin

and in some cases even the membranes surrounding cells. For drug makers or food engineers

this is one of the most appealing qualities of biopeptides; they can quickly get to the bloodstream to go where they are needed. In addition

short peptides can be simpler and cheaper to produce compared to complicated

larger proteins.

To make proteins

machinery inside a cell's nucleus first transcribes a strand of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) into a corresponding strand of messenger RNA (ribonucleic acid; mRNA). Next

in association with ribosomes outside of the nucleus

each triplet of m RNA

or codon

is translated into an amino acid that makes up a growing protein. Finally

the protein might be processed by the cell through the addition of chemical entities on the string of amino acids or the removal of sections of the strand.

When it comes to peptides

a few are produced through this classical protein-making pathway. But the vast majority come from elsewhere: the food we eat. When you drink a glass of milk or chow down a burger

your digestive system is faced with thousands of proteins from the food. In the process of digestion

many of these proteins are broken down into smaller

manageable chunks: peptides. Some of these have no immediate function-they will go on to be further processed so the body can later use their building blocks. But others are bioactive peptides; bioactive in the sense that they can cause a change to a cell's functioning. It is these that have caught researchers' attention.

What Are Consumables?

Consumables are goods used by individuals and businesses that must be replaced regularly because they wear out or are used up. They can also be defined as the components of an end product that is used up or permanently altered in the process of manufacturing such as semiconductor wafers and basic chemicals.

Stocks of companies that make consumables are considered safe harbors for equity investors when the economy shows signs of weakness. The reasoning is simple in that people always need to purchase groceries

clothes

and gas no matter what the state of the broad economy.

Many of the items measured in the basket of goods used to calculate the consumer price index (CPI) are consumables. Inflation in these items is closely watched because it can lower the discretionary income people have to spend on items such as cars

vacations

and entertainment.

Since staple goods are consumed at all times

they are considered non-cyclical

while more discretionary products are cyclical and can vary in demand with the economy.

Consumables Examples

While certain consumables like food

gasoline

clothing

and personal hygiene products are ubiquitous

the world of consumables also has some interesting niche areas and sectors. Here are just a small set of examples.
