Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of 3D printing materials, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a two-component 3D printing elastomer material containing a microcapsule structure. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of additive manufacturing technology, namely 3D printing, its application in industrial production and innovative design has become increasingly widespread. 3D printing technology builds three-dimensional objects by stacking materials layer by layer, providing unprecedented freedom for the design and manufacture of complex structures. In particular, this technology has shown great potential in the field of elastomeric materials. Elastomers are indispensable in many applications due to their excellent elasticity and deformation ability, such as personalized medical devices, advanced insoles and soft robotic components.

[0003] Traditional elastomer manufacturing methods, such as hot pressing or injection molding, are often limited by molds, which makes it difficult to manufacture complex geometric structures and is costly in small batches. With the advancement of 3D printing technologies such as FDM (fused deposition modeling), SLA (stereolithography) and SLS (selective laser sintering), it has become possible to quickly manufacture elastomer parts with complex geometries directly using digital models. These technologies not only simplify the product development process, but also increase the feasibility of customized products. Especially for elastomer parts with complex internal structures or gradient performance requirements, 3D printing provides a cost-effective and flexible solution.

[0004] In the photocuring technology, the photoinitiator generates free radicals by absorbing light energy, which then initiates the polymerization of monomers to form solid materials. However, when oxygen is present, it can react with these free radicals, interrupting the growth of the polymerization chain and preventing the curing reaction from proceeding, thus affecting the printing speed and efficiency. In addition, during the storage of pre-mixed resins, some photoinitiators may chemically react with other components in the resin, affecting the final curing effect.

[0005] Therefore, providing an elastomeric material that is easy to store, has a long storage period and a high photocuring rate is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently in the art. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the problems of short shelf life and low photocuring rate of existing 3D printing elastomer materials, the present invention provides a method for preparing a two-component 3D printing elastomer material containing a microcapsule structure. Specifically, the technical solution of the present invention includes the following contents:

[0007] One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a two-component 3D printing elastomer material containing a microcapsule structure, comprising component A and component B, wherein component A comprises polyethylene glycol diacrylate, a chain extender and a leveling agent, and component B comprises a modified photoinitiator, a curing agent and polycaprolactone microcapsules.

[0008] Furthermore, calculated by weight, the component A includes 20-50 parts of polyethylene glycol diacrylate, 1-5 parts of chain extender and 0.5-1.2 parts of leveling agent; the component B includes 1-2.5 parts of modified photoinitiator, 1-5 parts of curing agent and 25-60 parts of polycaprolactone microcapsules.

[0009] The second object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a two-component 3D printing elastomer material containing a microcapsule structure, the preparation method comprising the following steps:

[0010] Preparation of component A: polyethylene glycol diacrylate is dispersed in an organic solvent, a chain extender and a leveling agent are added, and the mixture is stirred and reacted at 40-45° C. for 1-2 hours.

[0014] Furthermore, the leveling agent is Tego-410.

[0015] Furthermore, the curing agent is diaminodichlorodiphenylmethane.

[0016] Furthermore, the organic solvent is acetone.

[0017] Furthermore, the ultrasound includes an ultrasound power of 40 to 80 W and an ultrasound time of 15 to 30 min.

[0018] Furthermore, the vacuum degassing time is 30 to 60 minutes.

[0019] Furthermore, the preparation method of the modified photoinitiator comprises the following steps:

[0020] Disperse 10 parts by weight of TiO2 particles in 50 parts by weight of deionized water, add 100 parts by weight of 65% nitric acid solution, stir and react at 80°C for 2 hours, and obtain hydroxylated TiO2 after washing and drying;

[0021] Disperse 10 parts by weight of hydroxylated TiO2 in 50 parts by weight of ethanol, add 5 parts by weight of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, stir and react at 80°C for 4 hours, wash and dry to obtain amino-treated TiO2;

[0022] Disperse 20 parts by weight of Irgacure 819 in 50 parts by weight of acetone, add 10 parts by weight of maleic anhydride and stir for 5 minutes, then add 1 part by weight of triethylamine, control the temperature at 60° C. in a nitrogen atmosphere, and stir for 12 hours to obtain carboxylated Irgacure 819;

[0023] 10 parts by weight of amino TiO2 and 20 parts by weight of carboxylated Irgacure 819 were dispersed in 50 parts by weight of acetone, 10 parts by weight of EDC and 5 parts by weight of NHS were added, and the mixture was stirred and reacted at 60° C. for 2 h to obtain a modified photoinitiator.

[0024] Furthermore, the preparation method of the polycaprolactone microcapsules comprises the following steps:

[0025] 10 parts by weight of polyether polyol are dissolved in 50 parts by weight of N,N-dimethylformamide, 12 parts by weight of diisocyanate and 0.1 parts by weight of dibutyltin dilaurate are added, and the mixture is stirred and reacted at 150° C. for 2 hours in a nitrogen atmosphere to obtain a polyurethane prepolymer; 10 parts by weight of the polyurethane prepolymer and 10 parts by weight of epoxy resin are dissolved in 100 parts by weight of ethyl acetate to obtain a mixed solution; 0.5 parts by weight of Span-80 are dispersed in 100 parts by weight of deionized water, the mixed solution is added, and the mixture is stirred and reacted at 10,000 rpm for 5 minutes to form a stable oil / water emulsion; 20 parts by weight of polycaprolactone are dissolved in 50 parts by weight of chloroform, the mixture is added to the oil / water emulsion, and the mixture is stirred and reacted at 10,000 rpm for 5 minutes to obtain the polycaprolactone microcapsules.

[0026] Furthermore, the diisocyanate includes at least one of 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate or hexamethylene diisocyanate.

[0027] Furthermore, the polyether polyol includes at least one of polytetramethylene glycol or polypropylene glycol.

[0028] Furthermore, the epoxy resin is at least one of bisphenol A epoxy resin, brominated epoxy resin and novolac epoxy resin.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0030] (1) The two-component 3D printing elastomer material provided by the present invention can be stored separately to extend the shelf life. When in use, the material is first initially shaped using rapid light curing technology, and then further processed using overheat curing. With the dual curing mechanism of ultraviolet light curing and heat curing, not only can the shrinkage deformation caused by simple heat curing be reduced, but also the material can maintain a high dimensional accuracy in the final cured state.

[0031] (2) TiO2, as an excellent semiconductor material, exhibits significant light absorption ability, especially in the ultraviolet region. TiO2 is connected to Irgacure 819 through an amide bond. The modified Irgacure 819 can effectively absorb more light energy, thereby improving the photoinitiation efficiency. In addition, TiO2 has photocatalytic activity and can generate electron-hole pairs under ultraviolet light irradiation. These electron-hole pairs can promote the decomposition of Irgacure 819, accelerate the generation of free radicals, and reduce the time required for curing, thereby achieving rapid photocuring. By applying 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, the dispersibility and compatibility of TiO2 can be improved, and the agglomeration phenomenon can be effectively reduced, thereby further enhancing the overall performance of the material.

[0032] (3) Wrapping the polyurethane prepolymer and epoxy resin inside a low-melting-point capsule shell to form polycaprolactone microcapsules can prevent the contact reaction between the curing agent and the epoxy resin from affecting the effect of 3D printing. At the same time, it can also avoid the contact and reaction between the chain extender and the polyurethane prepolymer during the photocuring process after the components A and B are mixed.

[0033] (4) When the two-component 3D printing elastomer material prepared by the present invention is used, component A and component B are mixed. After being irradiated with ultraviolet light, the modified photoinitiator can initiate the polymerization of polyethylene glycol diacrylate to achieve rapid ultraviolet light curing and high-precision printing. Subsequently, during the thermal curing process, the capsule shell of the polycaprolactone microcapsule melts to release the polyurethane prepolymer and the epoxy resin. At high temperature, the chain extender reacts with the polyurethane prepolymer, and the epoxy resin reacts with the curing agent to perform secondary curing, which can make the cross-linking tighter and improve the overall stability of the elastomer material.
