Direct Ink Writing (DIW) utilizes a wide range of ink formulations to produce desirable 3D-printed structures and properties. Styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) is an attractive candidate for 3D printing owing to its commercial availability, rheology, excellent mechanical properties, good impact resilience, and chemical stability. The SBR-based sealant was 3D printed in a DIW process, even in an ambient environment. The rheological behavior was assessed and correlated with optimized printing parameters. Important physico-chemical properties of the 3D-printed material were reported showing excellent properties as an elastomer. Finally, this work should expand the potential applications of existing rubber-based materials in additive manufacturing.
