Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of 3D printing resin, and particularly relates to nylon powder for 3D printing with high multiplexing rate.
Background
The 3D printing, namely the additive manufacturing technology, is a novel manufacturing and processing technology, changes the traditional material reduction manufacturing technology (cutting and processing technology) and is applied to the fields of industry, construction, medical treatment and the like. The Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) has the advantages of being rich in applicable material types, good in product performance and the like, becomes a hot spot in the field of 3D printing, and is applicable to most of consumable materials including polymeric materials and metal materials.
At present, the polymer powder material with wider application of the selective laser sintering material is nylon material, and has the advantages of good thermal stability, low melt viscosity, high strength, good compactness and the like of the sintered molding part, but the cost is higher, so that the consumable use cost can be reduced through the recycling of the powder in actual use. Research shows that the sintered nylon powder generates viscous flow due to the aggravated molecular chain segment movement, which can cause the increase of viscosity and the deterioration of melt fluidity, thereby causing the reduction of the performance and the reduction of the surface finish of the sintered part; it can be seen that improving the melt flow of nylon powder is a key factor in improving the reuse rate of nylon powder.
In the nitrogen atmosphere in the sintering process, condensation reaction can occur on the terminal carboxyl groups and the terminal amino groups which are not completely blocked in the main chain of the nylon molecules, so that the molecular weight of the recovered powder is increased, a high-temperature aging phenomenon is generated, the melt fluidity is obviously reduced, and the reuse rate of the nylon powder is reduced. The current common method is to mix uncured powder around the sintered part with new powder and then reuse the mixture. However, since the mixing amount of new powder is large, the reuse rate of the reclaimed powder is low, and the property change of the added reclaimed powder material can have a certain influence on the performance of the sintered part, the recycling frequency of the reclaimed powder is very limited.
Therefore, nylon needs to be modified, entanglement of nylon molecular chains in the sintering process is effectively reduced, and molecular weight in the aging process is prevented from increasing, so that the reduction of melt fluidity is avoided, and the reuse rate of nylon powder is improved.

In order to reduce the influence of high-temperature aging of nylon powder on melt fluidity in the sintering process, the novel functionalized aromatic hydroxyl-terminated polyether end-capping modifier is introduced, so that the reduction of melt fluidity caused by end group condensation in the high-temperature sintering process is avoided. By introducing an aromatic benzene ring structure, the aromatic benzene ring structure is conjugated with O, N atoms in an amide bond, and simultaneously the introduced amide bond enhances intermolecular acting force, so that the heat resistance and stability of a nylon molecular chain are better; meanwhile, a polyether soft chain segment is introduced, so that molecular chain entanglement is effectively prevented.

As compared with example 1, except that adipic acid was used as the end-capping agent, it can be seen from table 5 that the melt index of PA1012 powder significantly decreased with the increase of the number of sintering, i.e., the melt flowability significantly decreased; meanwhile, the tensile strength, the elongation at break and the impact toughness are low, but the tensile strength is increased to a certain extent along with the increase of the multiplexing times, and the elongation at break shows a remarkable decreasing trend; the impact toughness of the composite material shows a trend of increasing and then decreasing with the increase of the multiplexing times. The melt flowability and mechanical properties are inferior to those of the novel end-capping modifier used in example 1.
Comparative example 2
In comparison with example 4, adipic acid was used as a capping agent.
Preparing nylon powder:
SS2: adding 1.97kg of laurolactam and 13.3g of adipic acid (end capping agent) into a reaction kettle (the molar ratio of laurolactam to adipic acid is 110:1), adding 157g of deionized water (the weight of deionized water is 8% of the weight of laurolactam), replacing air in the kettle with nitrogen three times after the deionized water is added, then introducing nitrogen with the pressure of 0.2MPa (gauge pressure) as inert gas shielding gas, heating to 270 ℃, maintaining the pressure in the reaction kettle for 4 hours, slowly reducing the pressure to normal pressure, reducing the temperature to 250 ℃, vacuumizing, reducing the pressure to drain water, continuing to react for 2 hours, stopping heating, and granulating after water cooling bracing to obtain nylon 12 granules.
SS3: 1kg of nylon 12 granules, 5kg of ethanol, 1g of antioxidant 1098 and 1g of antioxidant 168 are added into a high-pressure reaction kettle (the weight ratio of the nylon 12 to the ethanol solvent to the antioxidant 1098 to the antioxidant 168 is 1:5:0.1 percent: 0.1 percent), stirred and heated to 150 ℃ for 1h at constant temperature, the pressure is maintained at 0.8MPa, then the temperature and the pressure are reduced to normal pressure, and nylon 12 powder is separated out. After the nylon 12 powder was dried by a centrifuge, it was placed in a vacuum oven to remove residual solvent.
And adding the obtained dry nylon powder and fumed silica with the mass ratio of 0.1% into a high-speed mixer, and uniformly mixing to obtain the target nylon powder.
Nylon powder evaluation:
3D printing test is continuously carried out for 8 times on the basis of no new powder addition, the recycling molding parameters are the same each time, the temperature field temperature is set to 170 ℃, the laser power is set to 45W, the scanning speed is 4000mm/s, the powder laying thickness is 0.1mm, the scanning interval is 0.1mm, sintering is carried out, and the melt index, the tensile strength and the tensile breaking elongation are changed along with the sintering times as shown in Table 6:
TABLE 6 PA12 powder melt index and sintered part physical Property Change
Compared with example 4, the difference is that adipic acid is used as the end capping agent, and as shown in table 6, the melt index of PA12 powder is obviously reduced along with the increase of sintering times, and the tensile strength, the elongation at break and the impact toughness are lower, but along with the increase of multiplexing times, the tensile strength is increased to a certain extent, and the elongation at break shows a obvious reduction trend; the impact toughness of the composite material shows a trend of increasing and then decreasing with the increase of the multiplexing times. The melt flowability and mechanical properties are inferior to those of example 4, which uses the novel end-capping modifier.
After the nylon 12 powder prepared by the method is repeatedly sintered for eight times, the melt index is reduced from 48.8g/10min to 42.3g/10min, and is reduced by 13.3% compared with the melt index of the new powder, the tensile strength and the elongation at break of a formed part prepared from the powder subjected to end-capped modification are not obviously reduced for 8 times, and the impact toughness is more stable. Therefore, the aromatic hydroxyl-terminated polyether modifier with a novel structure is introduced, so that the melt fluidity reduction caused by the increase of the molecular weight and the molecular chain entanglement in the nylon powder sintering process can be effectively avoided, the powder reusability is obviously improved, and meanwhile, the toughness of a formed part is enhanced.
