Its method of work is:Ink in storage tank 3 is transported in ink jet-print head 24, ink injection is out deposited to substrate 25 surface by ink jet-print head 24, first layer pattern is printed on substrate 25 by the relative motion of shower nozzle 24 and substrate 25, the temperature control of substrate 25 is below the boiling point of solvent, aqueous solvent is made quickly to volatilize, vapor and working gas Ar or N2Mixing is removed by being adsorbed by drying layer 35 after gas-recycling plant 4.After ink dried, substrate 25 returns to initial point.Using solvent gas concentration water finder 5 detect mixed gas in vapor concentration, when its content is in 100ppm, using selective laser melting technique substrate 25 on powder layer material be scanned and curing molding and and substrate 25 connect.Repeat above procedure and obtain multiple dense block materials.In the above process, the scope 42 of selective laser smelting process scanning is within the scope 41 of inkjet printing (Fig. 8).
Using above-mentioned 3D printing Apparatus for () and method therefor, SnTe powder suspension prepared by embodiment 4 is used for 3D printing and quickly prepares p-type SnTe thermoelectric arm, comprises the steps:
1) SnTe powder suspension prepared by embodiment 4 is placed in the ink as inkjet printing in storage tank, the ink in storage tank is transported in ink jet printing head under the effect of the pressure;Prepare the Al that thickness is 1mm2O3Ceramic wafer is placed and fixing on printing substrate;Molding cavity forvacuum 5 minutes to selective laser melting plant, then adopts Ar gas backfill cavity to normal pressure, keeps cavity water oxygen content in below 100ppm, and basal plate preheating to 80 DEG C and is incubated 10 minutes simultaneously;
2) the p-type thermoelectric material powder in storage tank is spread over Al2O3Ceramic plate surface, is then scanned according to the thermo-electric device thermoelectric arm size of design and distribution using laser, is printed as p-type thermoelectric arm and N-shaped thermoelectric arm;Wherein, when printing thermoelectric arm, powdering thickness is 50 microns, and laser scan rate is chosen as 50mm/s, and laser power is chosen as 50W;The print procedure repeating above thermoelectric arm is up to desired height.
Fig. 4 is for the surface texture after the thermoelectric arm laser scanning molding of p-type SnTe it can be seen that the surface after laser melting is very smooth.
Above-described embodiment all can make the suspension of thermoelectric material, and due to the difference of solid content, dispersant, the stability of suspension can be variant, but the ink printed thermo-electric device part as ink-jet 3D printing, and the stability of example all can meet requirement.For solid content, dispersant addition, the composition of powder body, the content of solvent is different from species, also can achieve technical scheme, embodiment numerous to list herein.
The above be only the preferred embodiment of the present invention it is noted that for the person of ordinary skill of the art, without departing from the concept of the premise of the invention, some modifications and variations can also be made, these broadly fall into protection scope of the present invention.
