**6.2 Investigation procedures**

3D-printed acrylonitrile butadiene styrene infused with nanoclay of different percentage loading resistance to impact, flexural, and tensile properties was investigated to determine the strength and stiffness of the printed nanocomposite. Tensile was carried out on a universal testing machine fitted with a 30 N load cell using ASTM 3039 test standard. Impact investigation was conducted according to ASTM D6110-10 using a Hounsfield Balance Impact Tester. For each investigation, five samples were investigated, and the average value was reported.
