Lattice structures that have body-centered
cubic (BCC) unit cells were manufactured in this study using fused deposition
modeling with polylactic acid (PLA) as printing material. Obtained cellular
structures were heat-treated utilizing the hot isostatic pressure (HIP) method.
Isostatic pressure was applied with nitrogen gas in an autoclave under
different temperatures. Effects of the heat treatment were investigated using
compression tests. Heat treatment applied below the glass transition
temperature was deformed under a higher load and higher energy absorption
capability. Heat treatment above the glass transition temperature showed
reduced energy absorption capacity and collapse load values, especially at the
temperature of 75°C.
