Problems solved by technology

[0002] The ability of 3D printing technology to manufacture complex products is a huge advantage that traditional manufacturing cannot match. However, when printing complex products in 3D, it is necessary to print a large number of support structures. In this way, the product faces the following problems: ① It is difficult to remove support structures, and mechanical removal is not only time-consuming It is laborious, and it will damage the product or leave marks to affect the appearance of the product; ②The organic solvent dissolves the supporting material, which has toxicity and environmental protection problems
At present, the commonly used water-soluble support material is PVA, but this material has the following disadvantages: ①The material is soft and has low strength, which cannot play a good supporting role, so it cannot be printed normally; ②The material will become sticky and turbid after being dissolved in water , making it difficult to clean corners and holes, resulting in unsatisfactory support material removal
The material has high strength, can realize the support function, and at the same time, it will form a uniform transparent solution without stickiness after dissolution, but the material still has the following disadvantages: ①The printing performance of the material is poor; ②The introduction of plasticizer is not conducive to environmental protection ; ③ The water solubility of the material is poor, and it takes a long time to completely dissolve
This material also has the problem of poor water solubility, which seriously affects the progress of support material removal

Abstract

The invention discloses a high strength 3D printing support material with fast water solubility and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises that a thermoplastic material monomer, an acrylic monomer and vinyl acetate undergo a solution polymerization reaction to produce a pre-neutralized polymer containing a carboxylic group and an ester group, then the pre-neutralized polymer is subjected to neutralization catalysis to form a carboxylate-alcoholic hydroxyl group neutralization polymer, and the polymer is subjected to solvent removal, drying and extrusion drawing so that a 3D printing water-soluble support wire is obtained. The high strength 3D printing support material has excellent water-soluble properties, a water-soluble rate more than 10 times that of a Stratasys enterprise PC water-soluble support material SR-100 and high strength, solves the problem that the PVA has low strength and cannot play a supporting role, can form a uniform transparent solution after dissolution in water, solves the problem that the dissolved PVA is sticky and muddy and is difficult to treat, prevents a plasticizer and has the characteristics of no toxicity and environmental friendliness.
