Abstract

A method and system for additive manufacturing are provided herein. The method comprises depositing a structure material, by a nozzle (), into a support material () by applying to the structure material such that the structure material flows through the nozzle. The structure material comprises a polymer and a rheological modifier. Depositing of the structure material is repeated as necessary to create an object (). The support material is at least partially removed from object. In various examples, the method comprises varying a print parameter from a first portion of the object to a second portion of the object, moving the nozzle away from a previously deposited layer of the object when repositioning for deposition of a subsequent layer of the object, or a combination thereof.
