Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of additive manufacturing, more particularly, relates to a water-based binder for stainless steel binder jetting additive manufacturing and a preparation method. BACKGROUND
[0002] Metal binder jetting (BJ) is a typical heat-free additive manufacturing technology, which is particularly suitable for forming metal powders such as stainless steel. It forms a "green body" by selectively jetting a binder on a powder bed to bind the powder, and obtains a final metal product after debinding and sintering. This process has the advantages of no support structure and high printing efficiency, and is widely used in the fields of aviation, medical treatment, molds, etc. in recent years. In this forming process, the performance of the binder has a decisive influence on the printing quality, the green body density, the dimensional accuracy and the subsequent sintering behavior. Among them, the surface tension and viscosity of the binder are the key parameters, which directly affect the jetting behavior of the nozzle and the distribution of powder wetting.
[0003] The commonly used binders on the market at present mainly use water or alcohol as the solvent, supplemented by high molecular polymers such as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as the main binder matrix, and adjust the rheological properties and spreading properties by adding surfactants, plasticizers, etc. However, the traditional binder has the following problems: high or low viscosity will cause nozzle blockage or unclear forming boundary during printing; improper adjustment of surface tension will cause insufficient powder wetting and uneven distribution of the bonding area; unreasonable control of solid content will affect the green body strength and debinding behavior; certain additives may react with stainless steel powder, which may cause sintering defects; and some water-based systems have poor wettability and large pores between the formed particles, resulting in insufficient green body density and strength, etc. Patent CN114250049A discloses a kind of ultra-low viscosity binder for metal 3DP printing process and its preparation method, the mass percentage components of the binder are: binder base 3-20%, diluent 75-92.5%, amphiphilic adhesion aid 0.5-3.0%, humectant 3-12%, and flow aid 1-5%; the amphiphilic adhesion aid is a molecule with amphiphilic structure, containing a polar group at one end and an organic segment containing a reactive functional group at the other end, the polar group produces intermolecular forces or chemical bonding with the surface groups of the metal powder, and the other end containing the reactive functional group of the organic segment produces strong intermolecular forces or physical entanglement or chemical reaction between the binder base and the metal powder, which acts as a bridge between the binder base and the metal powder, avoiding the separation of the binder base and the metal powder, and improving the coating effect of the binder on the metal powder.
[0004] However, the typical shortcomings of traditional BJ binders, such as poor print adaptability of different batches of binders due to fluctuations in raw materials, poor print consistency, high-temperature long-time drying or multi-stage debinding in post-molding treatment, affecting efficiency, and safety and environmental hazards caused by organic volatilization of some alcohol-containing binders in the printing process, cannot be solved. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a medium viscosity, controllable surface tension, and environmentally friendly water-based binder to optimize the BJ molding process and improve the strength of the metal green body and the density after sintering.

[0165] Table 1 Test results of Examples 1-8
[0166]
[0167] Table 2 Test results of Comparative Examples 1-7
[0168]
[0169] The test results of Table 1 and Table 2 show that by adjusting the component ratio of the adhesive, optimizing the preparation process and storage conditions, the viscosity, surface tension and stability of the adhesive can be precisely optimized. The specific regulation is as follows:
[0170] (1) The key regulation of the core component is as follows:
[0171] By adjusting the content of polyvinylpyrrolidone, the viscosity of the adhesive can be effectively controlled. When PVP is absent (Comparative Example 1), the viscosity drops to 2.3 mPa-s, and the adhesive ability is completely lost. As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 5 Even if the temperature changes, the product viscosity increases in turn with the increase of the mass ratio of PVP. PVP acts as a thickening agent to increase the viscosity of the system through molecular chain entanglement, and its content has a certain positive correlation with the viscosity.
[0172] As shown in Figure 4 By adjusting the content of sodium dodecyl sulfate and the compounding ratio of propylene glycol / polyethylene glycol, the surface tension can be stabilized at 33.5-37.0 mN / m. When sodium dodecyl sulfonate is used instead of SDS, the surface tension rises to 40.1 mN / m, and the wettability decreases significantly; when propylene glycol or polyethylene glycol is absent, the surface tension rises to 36.7-38.2 mN / m, it is concluded that SDS improves wettability by reducing the surface energy of the solution, and propylene glycol / polyethylene glycol synergistically enhances the penetration effect.
[0173] As shown in
[0174] (2) The optimization boundary of process parameters is as follows:
[0175] As shown in
[0176] As shown in Example 1 and Examples 5, 6, and 8, the final pH value (6.5-7.5) has limited effect on performance, but the comprehensive performance is optimal when the pH is 6.8 (Example 1) or 7.0 (Example 7).
[0177] As shown in Example 1 and Comparative Examples 6-7 and Examples 5 and 8, the storage temperature (10-25°C) is a critical parameter for stability: ≤10°C causes flocculation; ≥32°C causes viscosity and green strength to decrease.
[0178] (3) Verification of non-substitutability of components
[0179] When sodium dodecyl sulfonate was used to replace SDS, although the viscosity was qualified (10.5 mPa·s), the surface tension was as high as 40.1 mN / m. Since the sulfonate group has poor affinity with metal powder, it cannot effectively reduce the solid-liquid interface energy, resulting in the failure of infiltration.
[0180] When propylene glycol or polyethylene glycol was deleted, the surface tension increased significantly (36.7-38.2 mN / m). The polyhydric alcohol regulates the arrangement of water molecules through hydrogen bonds, and the deletion weakens the synergistic surface tension reduction effect of SDS.
