Abstract

The invention discloses a high-fluidity powder material for selective laser sintering. The high-fluidity powder material comprises a plastic powder body and inorganic nanometer materials, wherein the diameter of the plastic powder body ranges from 40 micrometers to 150 micrometers, the weight of the inorganic nanometer materials accounts for 0.01% to 5% of the total weight of the high-fluidity powder material, and the inorganic nanometer materials are surface-modified inorganic nanometer particles or unmodified inorganic nanometer materials. According to high-fluidity powder material for selective laser sintering, a small number of modified or unmodified inorganic nanometer materials are added into the plastic powder body, due to the fact that the nanometer materials are special in structure, are in the unstable thermodynamics status and have the unique surface interface effect, the fluidity of the powder body and the apparent density of the powder body can be remarkably enhanced, and the high-fluidity powder material is more suitable for SLS sintering. According to the high-fluidity powder material for selective laser sintering, no special requirements for types of plastic powder bodies exist, and the application range is wide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of 3D printing consumables, and relates to a powder for 3D printing, in particular to a high fluidity powder material for selective laser sintering. Background technique [0002] Additive manufacturing technology, also known as "3D printing technology", is a new type of manufacturing technology that is currently receiving high attention. Together with robot technology and artificial intelligence technology, it is called the key technology to promote the third industrial revolution. Selective laser sintering (SLS) is a very important technology in 3D printing. The SLS process is based on the principle of discrete / stacking forming, integrating new technologies such as computer, numerical control, laser and new materials, and selectively sintering metal or non-metal powder materials to quickly prepare products. The laser power required for polymer SLS sintering is small and not limited by the complexity of the shape of ...
