Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing fine-particle elemental spherical metal powder for 3D printing, and belongs to the technical field of metal powder preparation. The preparation method adopts high-purity metal block as raw material, evaporates by arc in an inert gas environment, and at the same time fills in hydrogen to control the heat conduction and activity of metal gas atoms so that it can be cooled and deposited to obtain high-purity elemental metal nano-powder particles; The elemental metal nano powder is agglomerated and granulated to obtain a higher density micron-sized elemental metal powder; finally, the micron-sized elemental metal powder is heat-treated after granulation, and the particle size, sphericity, and fluidity are obtained through degumming and densification. Elemental metal powder particles with oxygen content meeting the requirements of 3D printing. Compared with other process methods, the method has strong controllability on the sphericity, particle size distribution and oxygen content of the metal particles, and has the advantages of simple process and low cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing fine-particle elemental spherical metal powder for 3D printing, and belongs to the technical field of metal powder preparation. Background technique [0002] 3D printing technology integrates cutting-edge technologies in many fields such as digital modeling technology, electromechanical control technology, information technology, material science and chemistry, and has been applied in product prototypes, mold manufacturing, bioengineering and medicine, jewelry making and other fields, and can replace traditional Fine processing technology and greatly improve the efficiency and precision of production. However, the 3D printing process puts forward higher requirements for metal powder materials, such as requiring a particle size range of 20-50 microns, high sphericity and low oxygen content. At present, the fine-grained spherical metal powder required in China basically relies on imports. Due to the bottle...
