Abstract

The invention provides a polypropylene for 3D printing and a polyethylene composite consumable. The polypropylene for 3D printing comprises the following components in percentage by mass: 40-80% of polypropylene, 10-40% of polyethylene, 3-15% of inorganic filler, 0.2-3% of nucleating agent and 0.2-1.5% of tackifier. Since the polypropylene and polyethylene composite material are used as the main material of the 3D printing consumable, the 3D printing consumable has favorable surface rigidity, favorable scratch resistance and high safety, does not have the problem of environmental stress cracking, and can be used for printing to obtain the products for various food-level requirements. The water absorptivity in water is only 0.01%, so the 3D printing product has the advantages of no water absorption, high moisture resistance and high surface gloss and can be easily colored. The 3D printing consumable has the advantages of high heat resistance, high impact resistance, excellent bending resistance, excellent corrosion resistance, high voltage resistance and high arc resistance. Thus, the polyethylene composite consumable can be made and printed into food utensils, tableware, medical appliances, medicine equipment, disinfection equipment, electronic products, automobile accessories, infant and mom supplies, sport supplies, packing containers, toys for children and the like, and has wide applicable fields.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a 3D printing consumable, specifically a polypropylene and polyethylene composite consumable and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Currently, there are no polypropylene or polyethylene consumables or filaments used for 3D printing in China for 3D printers based on the FDM principle. Among the consumables currently used in FDM, the only environmentally friendly food-grade one is PLA. However, PLA has too many shortcomings in various aspects of mechanical and thermal properties, making it impossible to take into account both environmental protection and industrial applications. Although PLA is environmentally friendly, it is not heat-resistant. The processing temperature is generally 160-200°C, so it is not suitable for high-temperature resistance requirements in industry. Moreover, PLA is relatively hard, and the printed 3D products do not have high impact resistance. Contents of the invention [000...
