This invention relates to a microbial mineralization
composite material for inkjet 3D printing and its preparation method. The
composite material comprises
powder materials and a binder. The
powder materials, by weight, include: 70-85 parts
magnesium phosphate cement powder, 10-25 parts fine aggregate, 0.5-3 parts a porous protective carrier loaded with
urease-producing
Bacillus licheniformis spores, 0.05-0.5 parts a
nutrient protectant, and 1-5 parts a
calcium source. The binder, by weight, includes: 94-98 parts deionized water,
urea, 0.02-0.2 parts nutrients, 0.01-0.5 parts a pH adjuster, 0.5-5 parts a
viscosity adjuster, and 0.01-0.2 parts a
surface tension adjuster. The concentration of
urea in the binder is 0.02-0.10 mol / L. This invention solves the problems of existing inkjet 3D printing materials having internal pores, microcracks, and weak interlayer interfaces after molding, limiting the improvement of the mechanical properties of printed parts in the later stages, and the difficulty in adapting the microbial mineralization
system to the inkjet 3D printing process.
