In the 3D printing process, when printing and meeting a large suspension angle, the support is usually required to be printed below the suspension position, and the printed product can ensure high precision.
At present, polylactic acid (PLA) and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS) are mainly used as raw materials for 3D printing, and because PLA or ABS is used for printing and supporting and is difficult to remove, a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) wire rod capable of being dissolved in water is developed in the market in recent years, and a product generated by printing can be placed in water and then the support can be removed.
But PVA wire rod has obvious shortcoming, on the one hand its hygroscopicity is too high, and the wire rod easily causes the wire rod to bond each other together at the laying time overlength, and the line footpath also changes because the moisture absorption is too much, and on the other hand PVA high temperature stability is relatively poor, easily takes place PVA cross-linking when printing the support again after meetting the waiting of longer time in the printing process, and then causes stifled shower nozzle phenomenon to the printing can't normally accomplish.
There is still an urgent need in the market for a stable printing support material, especially for printing a process model with high precision and difficult removal of the support.
