The application provides an
aerogel composite material for 3D printing and a preparation method thereof, and the preparation method comprises the following steps: S1, a base material is vacuum dried to obtain a pre-dried base material, the pre-dried base material is premixed with a
foaming agent at a
low speed for 5-15 min, and the pre-mixed material is sent into a double-screw extruder to be extruded and granulated to obtain granules one; S2, the granules one are frozen and crushed at a low temperature and sieved to obtain pre-foaming master batches; S3, the pre-foaming master batches,
aerogel powder,
white oil and a dispersing agent are added into a mixer, stirred at a
low speed for 3 min, heated, stirred at a high speed for 15-20 min, and discharged to obtain
powder mixtures; S4, the
powder mixtures and a
foaming agent two are sent into a double-screw extruder to be extruded and granulated to obtain granules two; S5, the granules two are added into an extruder to be melt-extruded to obtain a wire; and S6, the wire is cooled and wound in a constant-temperature environment at 25 DEG C, and vacuum packaged to obtain the
aerogel composite material for 3D printing. The aerogel
composite material prepared by the application has good heat insulation performance and can meet the personalized manufacturing requirements of complex shapes.
