Abstract

The invention discloses a composite carbon nanotube / polypropylene powder material for SLS (selective laser sintering) and a preparation method thereof. The composite carbon nano tube / polypropylene powder material comprises polypropylene, carbon nanotubes, an initiating agent and antioxidant.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of polymer nanocomposite materials, and more specifically relates to a carbon nanotube / polypropylene composite powder material for SLS and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) uses computer-aided design and manufacturing, and adopts the principle of layered manufacturing superposition to directly form solid powder into three-dimensional solid parts. Due to the advantages of low forming temperature and low laser power required for sintering, polymer materials have become the most widely used and most successful SLS materials. With the development of SLS technology from the original shape-only prototype to the direct manufacture of functional parts, the types and properties of the existing SLS polymer materials are far from meeting the needs of most products. Therefore, the development of more high-performance, multi-variety polymers and their composite materials h...
