Problems solved by technology

Although there are many kinds of suitable molding materials, there are few polymer powder raw materials that can be directly applied to SLS technology and successfully produce molded products with small dimensional error, regular surface and low porosity.
In the prior art, pulverization methods, such as cryogenic pulverization, are usually used to prepare powder raw materials for SLS, which not only requires special equipment, but also the prepared powder raw material particles have a rough surface, uneven particle size, and irregular shape, which is not conducive to Formation of sintered compacts and affects the properties of compacts
At present, there is a shortage of polymer powder raw materials suitable for SLS technology in the market, so solid powder raw materials corresponding to various polymer types need to be developed urgently

Abstract

The invention provides polypropylene resin powder for selective laser sintering as well as a preparation method thereof. The method comprises the following steps: at a heating temperature, dissolving polypropylene resin in at least one organic solvent of C5-C9 alkanes, and adding a nucleating agent to obtain a polypropylene resin solution; cooling the obtained polypropylene resin solution to precipitate out solid to obtain a solid-liquid mixture; adding an additive into the obtained solid-liquid mixture, and mixing uniformly; and performing solid-liquid separation and drying the solid to obtain polypropylene resin powder applicable to selective laser sintering, wherein the additive comprises a powder separating agent and/or antioxidant. The polypropylene resin powder prepared by the invention has the advantages of good oxidation resistance and powder fluidity, moderate size, smooth surface, proper bulk density and suitable dispersity and particle size distribution. The invention also provides a selective laser sintering method taking the polypropylene powder prepared by the method as a raw material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of polymer processing, in particular to a polypropylene resin powder for selective laser sintering, a preparation method thereof and an application in selective laser sintering. Background technique [0002] Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) technology is a rapid prototyping technology, which is currently the most widely used and most promising technology in additive manufacturing technology, showing a rapid development trend in recent years. SLS technology is a technology in which the computer first scans the three-dimensional entity, and then selectively melts and sinters the material powder pre-laid on the workbench or parts through high-intensity laser irradiation, and then realizes layer-by-layer molding. . SLS technology has a high degree of design flexibility, can manufacture accurate models and prototypes, can form parts with reliable structures that can be used directly, and has a short production cy...
