The invention discloses a method for preparing a
macro-micro directional structure through variable-
diameter fused deposition, and belongs to the technical field of additive manufacturing. The preparation method comprises the following specific steps: adding part of
titanium trisulfide nanorods into polyether-
ether-
ketone powder, carrying out high-energy ball milling, adding the rest of filler and
antistatic agent, carrying out low-energy ball milling, carrying out multi-stage sequential blending to obtain composite
powder, and carrying out screw segmented heating, melting and
extrusion and gradient
slow cooling and shaping to obtain the
titanium trisulfide / polyether-
ether-
ketone composite material. And finally, the ratio Vp / f of the printing speed to the wire feeding speed in the forming process is controlled, ordered stacking deposition is conducted on a fused deposition path in the single direction, and the
macro-micro orientation structure with the
titanium trisulfide
nanorod orientation consistent with the polyether-
ether-
ketone printing path direction is prepared. The method is easy to operate, the process is flexible and controllable, and the prepared titanium trisulfide
nanorod / polyether-ether-ketone
macro-micro orientation structure has the advantages of being good in orientation, high in heat
conductivity, high in electrical
conductivity, good in
wear resistance, large in tensile strength and the like and can be widely applied to the fields of
aerospace, electronic chips,
medical instruments, transportation and the like as a supporting structure.
