AB  - In this study, various nano andmicro particles with different properties, including density, surface area,purity and particle morphology were used as reinforcement particles for theproduction of polymer composite filaments to be used for 3D printing.Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) was matrix material and Multi wall carbonnanotubes (MWCNTs), SiO2, ZrB2, and, Al particles were reinforcements.Production of the composite filaments was carried out by using a twin screwextruder. Produced composite filaments were characterized via Differential ScanningCalorimeter (DSC), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Energy-Dispersive X-raySpectroscopy (EDS), tensile test and surface roughness tests. Results showedthat addition of micro/nano particles into ABS matrix improved the UltimateTensile Strength (UTS) of the composites by around 16% compared tonon-reinforced one. As a result of reinforcing with micro particles, ZrB2 andAl, the tensile strain of neat-ABS filament increased by 17.8% and 40%,respectively
