Multi jet fusion (MJF), a powder-based additive manufacturing technology, is suitable for fabricating fibre-reinforced polymer composites. However, the types of reinforcement fibres applied in MJF are limited due to the incompatibility between the fibres and polymer. Herein, a simple and cost-effect...
