Abstract

The present invention belongs to the technical field of mold preparation, and provides a method for preparing a mold containing a mold release agent. The present invention adds a liquid mold release agent and a solid mold release agent to a photocurable composite cyanate ink, respectively. Since the solid mold release agent has an adsorption effect on the liquid mold release agent, and the two types of mold release agents do not participate in the cross-linking polymerization reaction of the photocurable composite cyanate ink, the liquid mold release agent will finally precipitate from the inside of the mold, forming a lubricating film on the surface, significantly reducing the surface energy of the mold, the friction force and adhesion of the mold during demolding, ensuring that the mold does not need to be additionally applied with a mold release agent when in use, that is, efficient and lossless demolding can be achieved and the mold can be recycled. At the same time, after the acid ester monomer in the photocurable composite cyanate ink is subjected to photothermal treatment, a triazine ring structure is formed, so that the mold has excellent mechanical properties and thermal stability. In addition, the present invention adopts 3D printing for mold preparation, with fast molding speed and high precision, while meeting the customization requirements of personalized molds.

Finally, vacuum treat for 15min to eliminate bubbles in the ink to obtain cyanate ink.

[0102] 10 g of talcum powder (average particle size of 500 nm) was added to the prepared cyanate ester ink, and ball milled at 3000 rpm for 3 min in a dual-center mixing disperser, and the treatment was repeated three times to uniformly disperse the talcum powder in the cyanate ester ink. Then 2.2 g of perfluoropolyether was added, and ball milled at 3000 rpm for 3 min in a dual-center mixing disperser, and the treatment was repeated three times to uniformly disperse the talcum powder in the cyanate ester ink system in the form of small droplets. Finally, after vacuum treatment for 5 min to remove bubbles, a light-curable composite cyanate ester ink was obtained.

[0103] C. Printing model: Import the STL format file into the slicing software CHITUBOX64 for slicing and printer settings. The parameters are as follows: the wavelength of the light source is 405nm, the layer thickness is 100μm, the exposure time is 20s, and the printer power is 280mW. After completion, click Start Printing to obtain the printed model.

[0104] D. Photothermal treatment of printed models: After the model is printed, remove the printed model from the support platform and clean it with isopropyl alcohol. After completion, place the printed model in a UV curing box for UV curing for 20 minutes. After UV curing, perform heat treatment in a programmable temperature-controlled oven. The heating program is as follows:

[0105] The temperature is raised from room temperature to 100°C for 2h, from 100°C to 140°C for 2h, from 140°C to 160°C for 2h, and kept at 160°C for 2h; the temperature is raised from 160°C to 180°C for 2h, from 180°C to 200°C for 2h, and kept at 200°C for 2h, then the heating is stopped, and the temperature is lowered to room temperature to obtain a mold containing a release agent.

[0106] E. Model demoulding: weigh 20 grams of Sylgard TM 184 silicone and 2 g curing agent (mass ratio of 10:1), fully mixed, and degassed for 10 min under reduced pressure to obtain a prepolymer. The prepared prepolymer was poured into the mold obtained in step D, and then placed in a constant temperature furnace at 90°C, heat treated for 2 h, cooled to room temperature, and then demolded.

[0107] Figure 3 The surface energy and contact angle of the mold obtained in Example 4 are shown in FIG. Figure 3 It can be seen that the introduction of perfluoropolyether can effectively reduce the surface energy and help improve the demoulding quality.

[0108] Figure 4 The following is a flow chart of demoulding the mold obtained by using Example 1. Figure 4 It can be seen that the method for manufacturing demoulding molds has low cost, high efficiency and good application prospects.

[0109] Figure 5 This is a mold demoulding test diagram provided for Examples 1 and 2. Figure 6 The mold demoulding test diagram provided for Example 3; Figure 5 and Figure 6 It can be seen that the molds containing release agents obtained in the two embodiments have good demoulding effects.

[0110] Figure 7 Combination mold demoulding test diagram provided for Example 4; Figure 7 It can be seen that the mold has good universality and demoulding effect.

[0111] Figure 8 This is the demoulding test diagram of the mold obtained in Example 1 after 100 cycles. Figure 8 It can be seen that the mold has excellent recyclability.

[0112] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
