Description

Ultralow-viscosity adhesive for metal 3DP printing process and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of additive manufacturing, and particularly relates to a metal 3DP process ultralow-viscosity adhesive and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Three-dimensional printing (Three-Dimension Printing,3 DP) is also called binder spraying (Binder Jetting Printing, BJP), which is based on the principle of droplet spraying, and is used for selectively spraying and binding loose powder according to a path designed by a computer, stacking and forming the loose powder layer by layer, and finally obtaining a required product through post-treatment. The process requires that the metal powder is spherical or nearly spherical, is prepared by an air atomization process, has uniform particle size, excellent fluidity and particle size distribution range of 15-60 mu m. The binder requirements for the printer head are: stable performance, long-term storage, low viscosity (< 50 mPa.s), surface tension of 30-60mN/m, low corrosiveness to spray nozzle, difficult blockage of spray nozzle, difficult drying, and long-term use. The adhesive is required to meet the requirements, and auxiliaries such as a humectant, a glidant, a surfactant, a pH regulator and the like are added into the system to improve the performance of the adhesive.
At present, few manufacturers for preparing metal products by using a 3DP printing technology are available in the market, and the market of the 3DP metal printer mainly adopts foreign manufacturers. In 1997, exOne introduced the first metal binder jet 3D printer prometals RTS-300 in the world, pulling open the development prologue of metal 3DP printers. The company adopts a heat curing mode, spreads a layer of powder, sprays a layer of water-based adhesive, and then carries out heat treatment at 180-200 ℃ for curing and forming to obtain the biscuit. However, the device requires insulation of the entire chamber to maintain the powder at 40-80 ℃, increasing the manufacturing cost of the 3DP device. In 2012, a single-channel injection technology Metal 3D printer DM P2500 is developed by a Digital Metal company of Swedish manufacturer, powder spreading and binder injection are completed at one time, the printing rate is improved, epoxy resin is used as an adhesive, the device does not need to be heated and cured in a later period, the steps are simplified, and the efficiency is improved. However, the equipment still needs to perform heat preservation operation on the whole cavity, so that the manufacturing cost of the equipment is increased, the viscosity of the epoxy resin adhesive is higher, and strict requirements are imposed on the spray head. Hewlett-Packard company is one of the important manufacturers who produce the shower nozzle, relies on self advantage, promotes Metal 3DP printer-HP Metal Jet in 2018, spreads the powder first, then sprays water-based adhesive through the thermal foaming 3D print head on the Metal powder, evaporates the moisture in the binder, leaves the polymer and will Metal adhesive, so this equipment needs the powder bed to heat, keep warm continually, can increase energy consumption and improve equipment cost. At present, the metal 3DP printer is still blank in the domestic market, and only the metal 3DP printer which is promoted by the Wuhan Yi company is realized in the market. The equipment uses phenolic resin as a binder, a layer of powder is paved and a layer of binder is sprayed, and finally the whole cavity is cured at 150-200 ℃ to obtain a metal biscuit, so that the equipment cavity does not need to be insulated, the running cost of the equipment can be reduced, but the viscosity of the binder is 10-15 cP, the viscosity is higher, only an industrial spray head can be used for spray printing, the equipment cost is increased, the spray head is a consumable product, the periodic replacement is needed, and the running cost of the equipment in the use process is further increased. Therefore, the metal 3DP printer has great development space and research potential in equipment, adhesives and process flows.
At present, the 3DP technology is adopted to prepare metal parts, which has the following disadvantages: 1. because of the limitation of the 3DP technology, loose powder is solidified and molded by using an adhesive, and then degreased and sintered to finally obtain the required finished product. The porosity of the cured biscuit is higher, and the dimensional shrinkage of the degreased and sintered product is larger; and if the degreasing is not complete, the adhesive residue can affect the performance of the final product. 2. The influence of the spray heads on the market has high requirements on the surface tension and viscosity of the adhesive, and the selection of the adhesive type is limited, so that only a small part of the adhesive is suitable for the process. The above disadvantages make the requirement on the adhesive higher and higher, so people are required to further develop or improve the adhesive to obtain the metal 3DP adhesive formula with excellent performance. The adhesives commonly used in the metal 3DP technology at present are epoxies, UV glues, aqueous adhesives, phenolics, etc. The epoxy adhesive has high viscosity and is not easy to dilute, and most of epoxy in the market is bi-component, and expensive industrial double spray heads are needed for printing, so that the manufacturing cost is increased; the UV adhesive has higher requirements on a spray head and a metal 3DP machine, a light curing assembly needs to be added, the machine structure is complex, and the equipment cost is increased; the water-based adhesive contains a large amount of water, the cavity is required to be maintained at a certain temperature, the volatilization speed of the water is increased, the water is further required to be heated, removed and solidified and formed in the later period, the energy consumption is increased, the equipment cost is high, the bonding strength of the water-based adhesive is weak, and the defects that cracks are easy to generate in the manufacture of large-size metal parts are overcome; the phenolic adhesive has adjustable viscosity and high bonding strength, and can be cured in a later stage, so that the equipment does not need to be provided with a cavity heat preservation device or a UV curing device, the equipment is simple, and the equipment manufacturing difficulty and the manufacturing cost are reduced. However, the viscosity of the phenolic resin adhesive used in the market at present is at least 10cP, and the common commercial spray heads can not spray, and all the spray heads are industrial spray heads, so that the equipment cost is increased. If the diluent is forcibly added to reduce the viscosity, the effect of the bonding is not achieved because the concentration of the bonding material contained therein is low.
The invention aims to prepare the phenolic resin with ultralow viscosity, the viscosity of the adhesive is between 2 and 6cP, the ultralow viscosity adhesive can reduce the requirement on a spray head, and the common commercial spray head can be selected for metal printing, so that the manufacturing cost of equipment is greatly reduced, and the phenolic resin with ultralow viscosity makes a contribution to promoting the popularization and popularization of metal 3 DP.

Step one: mechanically stirring the base material, the diluent and the humectant for 30min according to the formula of the table, performing ultrasonic treatment for 10min, and uniformly mixing.
Step two: adding the amphiphilic adhesion promoter and the glidant in the formula into the mixture uniformly mixed in the step one, stirring uniformly, and performing suction filtration to prepare the adhesive using the metal 3DP technology.
The adhesive prepared above was subjected to viscosity and surface tension test at room temperature (25 ℃ C.) to give an adhesive having a viscosity of 2.14 mPas and a surface Zhang Liwei 24.31.31 mN.m -1
The using method of the adhesive comprises the following steps: a) Importing a required printing model on metal 3DP equipment; b) Adding the prepared binder into an ink storage tank, and placing metal powder with the particle size of 15-60 mu m into a powder supply cylinder; c) Performing printing operation, spraying an adhesive according to a path designed by a computer by a spray head every time one layer of powder is paved, then descending one layer of powder supply cylinder by one layer of powder supply cylinder, paving the powder on the forming cylinder by using a powder paving roller, spraying an adhesive again, and overlapping layer by layer to finally obtain an uncured biscuit; d) Placing the forming cylinder containing the biscuit in a baking oven at 150 ℃ for 2 hours for heating and curing, and sweeping off superfluous powder to obtain the required biscuit; e) Placing the biscuit in a vacuum furnace, heating from 25 ℃ to 450 ℃ at a heating rate of 1 ℃/min, preserving heat for 2 hours for degreasing, heating to a metal sintering temperature at a heating rate of 3 ℃/min (420 stainless steel is taken as an example, the sintering temperature is set at 1350 ℃) for 2 hours, cooling to 250 ℃ at a heating rate of 5 ℃/min, and cooling to normal temperature along with the furnace, thus finally obtaining the required metal workpiece.
Taking 420 stainless steel powder as an example, the bending strength of the cured obtained biscuit is 4.2MPa, and the density of the degreased and sintered finished product is 87.73 percent.
When the content of the base material is lower than 3%, the strength of the biscuit is weaker, and the printed part is difficult to take out; when the content of the base material is 3%, the biscuit has certain strength, small-size parts can be printed, and large-size parts (the sizes of the parts exceed 5 cm) are easy to break when taken out. When the content of the base material is low, the distance between particles is larger, the porosity after sintering is higher, and the compactness of the part is lower. The binder content should be increased appropriately for parts of larger size and more complex shape.

Base material Resol phenolic resin 20
Diluent agent Ethanol 74
Humectant type Glycerol 3
Glidant Polyethylene glycol 200 1
Amphiphilic adhesion promoter 3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane 2
Step one: mechanically stirring the base material, the diluent and the humectant for 30min according to the formula of the table, performing ultrasonic treatment for 10min, and uniformly mixing.
Step two: adding the amphiphilic adhesion promoter and the glidant in the formula into the mixture uniformly mixed in the step one, stirring uniformly, and performing suction filtration to prepare the adhesive using the metal 3DP technology.
The adhesive prepared above was subjected to viscosity and surface tension test at room temperature (25 ℃ C.) to give an adhesive having a viscosity of 3.55 mPas and a surface Zhang Liwei 32.78.32.78 mN.m -1 . When example 2 is compared with example 1, it can be seen that increasing the binder content significantly increases the binder viscosity and surface tension, but the binder viscosity and surface tension remain relatively low due to the lower overall binder content.
The using method of the adhesive comprises the following steps: a) Importing a required printing model on metal 3DP equipment; b) Adding the prepared binder into an ink storage tank, and placing metal powder with the particle size of 15-60 mu m into a powder supply cylinder; c) And (3) performing printing operation, spraying an adhesive according to a path designed by a computer by a spray head every time one layer of powder is paved, then descending one layer of forming cylinder, lifting one layer of powder supply cylinder, paving the powder on the forming cylinder by using a powder paving roller, spraying an adhesive again, and stacking layer by layer to finally obtain an uncured biscuit. d) And (3) placing the forming cylinder containing the biscuit in an oven at 150 ℃ for 2 hours for heating and curing, and sweeping off the redundant powder to obtain the required biscuit. e) Placing the biscuit in a vacuum furnace, heating from 25 ℃ to 450 ℃ at a heating rate of 1 ℃/min, preserving heat for 2 hours for degreasing, heating to a metal sintering temperature at a heating rate of 3 ℃/min (420 stainless steel is taken as an example, the sintering temperature is set at 1350 ℃) for 2 hours, cooling to 250 ℃ at a heating rate of 5 ℃/min, and cooling to normal temperature along with the furnace, thus finally obtaining the required metal workpiece.
Taking 420 stainless steel powder as an example, the bending strength of the cured biscuit is 9.3MPa, and the sintering density is 93.79%. The increase of the binder base stock content obviously improves the strength and the density of the biscuit after sintering, but the binder base stock content is too high (more than 20 percent), the binder viscosity is more than 6 mPa.s, the binder is not easy to spray from a common spray head, the industrial spray head needs to be replaced, and the equipment cost is increased; the permeability of the printed product is strong, and the boundary precision and the surface roughness are reduced; the base material with too high content is not easy to be discharged in the later degreasing and sintering process, so that the metal components are influenced, and the final strength of the metal part is further influenced.

Step one: mechanically stirring the base material, the diluent and the humectant for 30min according to the formula of the table, performing ultrasonic treatment for 10min, and uniformly mixing.
Step two: adding the amphiphilic adhesion promoter and the glidant in the formula into the mixture uniformly mixed in the step one, stirring uniformly, and performing suction filtration to prepare the adhesive using the metal 3DP technology.
The adhesive thus obtained was subjected to viscosity and surface tension tests at ordinary temperature (25 ℃ C.) to give an adhesive having a viscosity of 4.29 mPas and a surface Zhang Liwei 34.93.93 mN.m -1 . In example 3, compared with example 2, it can be seen that the change of the diluent has a larger influence on the viscosity and the surface tension of the system, the diluent is changed from the ethanol solvent to the mixed solvent of ethanol and ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, and even if the content of the base material is reduced, the viscosity of the binder is still increased from 3.55 mPas to 4.29 mPas, because the viscosity and the surface tension of the ethanol solvent are lower, when the system is the ethanol solvent, the viscosity and the surface tension of the system can be greatly reduced, but the strong volatility of the ethanol can cause fine cracks to be generated in the heating and curing process, so that the crack can be avoided by adding the solvent with higher boiling point into the system.
The using method of the adhesive comprises the following steps: a) Importing a required printing model on metal 3DP equipment; b) Adding the prepared binder into an ink storage tank, and placing metal powder with the particle size of 15-60 mu m into a powder supply cylinder; c) And (3) performing printing operation, spraying an adhesive according to a path designed by a computer by a spray head every time one layer of powder is paved, then descending one layer of forming cylinder, lifting one layer of powder supply cylinder, paving the powder on the forming cylinder by using a powder paving roller, spraying an adhesive again, and stacking layer by layer to finally obtain an uncured biscuit. d) And (3) placing the forming cylinder containing the biscuit in a 180 ℃ oven for 2 hours for heating and curing, and sweeping off the redundant powder to obtain the required biscuit. e) Placing the biscuit in a vacuum furnace, heating from 25 ℃ to 450 ℃ at a heating rate of 1 ℃/min, preserving heat for 2 hours for degreasing, heating to a metal sintering temperature at a heating rate of 3 ℃/min (420 stainless steel is taken as an example, the sintering temperature is set at 1350 ℃) for 2 hours, cooling to 250 ℃ at a heating rate of 5 ℃/min, and cooling to normal temperature along with the furnace, thus finally obtaining the required metal workpiece.
Taking 420 stainless steel powder as an example, the bending strength of the cured biscuit is 7.6MPa, and the sintering density is 96.28%.

Step one: mechanically stirring the base material, the diluent and the humectant for 30min according to the formula of the table, performing ultrasonic treatment for 10min, and uniformly mixing.
Step two: adding the amphiphilic adhesion promoter and the glidant in the formula into the mixture uniformly mixed in the step one, stirring uniformly, and performing suction filtration to prepare the adhesive using the metal 3DP technology.
The adhesive prepared above was subjected to viscosity and surface tension test at room temperature (25 ℃ C.) to give an adhesive having a viscosity of 4.46 mPas and a surface Zhang Liwei 38.04 mN.m -1 . In comparison with example 4 and example 3, the diluent is replaced with a solvent having a higher viscosity, a higher boiling point and a poorer volatility, which has a larger influence on the viscosity and the surface tension of the system, so that cracking of the product caused by too high volatilization rate of the diluent in the curing process can be avoided, but the curing temperature can be slightly increased, and the curing time can be prolonged.
The using method of the adhesive comprises the following steps: a) Importing a required printing model on metal 3DP equipment; b) Adding the prepared binder into an ink storage tank, and placing metal powder with the particle size of 15-60 mu m into a powder supply cylinder; c) And (3) performing printing operation, spraying an adhesive according to a path designed by a computer by a spray head every time one layer of powder is paved, then descending one layer of forming cylinder, lifting one layer of powder supply cylinder, paving the powder on the forming cylinder by using a powder paving roller, spraying an adhesive again, and stacking layer by layer to finally obtain an uncured biscuit. d) And (3) placing the forming cylinder containing the biscuit in a baking oven at 200 ℃ for 3 hours for heating and curing, and sweeping off the redundant powder to obtain the required biscuit. e) Placing the biscuit in a vacuum furnace, heating from 25 ℃ to 450 ℃ at a heating rate of 1 ℃/min, preserving heat for 2 hours for degreasing, heating to a metal sintering temperature at a heating rate of 3 ℃/min (420 stainless steel is taken as an example, the sintering temperature is set at 1350 ℃) for 2 hours, cooling to 250 ℃ at a heating rate of 5 ℃/min, and cooling to normal temperature along with the furnace, thus finally obtaining the required metal workpiece.

Taking 420 stainless steel powder as an example, the bending strength of the cured biscuit is 6.9MPa, and the sintering density is 97.21%. The humectant can reduce the volatilization rate of the adhesive, avoid the blockage of a spray head in the printing process, and reduce cracks caused by too fast volatilization of the adhesive in the curing process.

Example 7 is compared to example 5, the amphipathic adhesion promoter increases the wettability of the adhesive with the metal powder while increasing the penetration thickness of the adhesive to some extent.
The using method of the adhesive comprises the following steps: a) Importing a required printing model on metal 3DP equipment; b) Adding the prepared binder into an ink storage tank, and placing metal powder with the particle size of 15-60 mu m into a powder supply cylinder; c) And (3) performing printing operation, spraying an adhesive according to a path designed by a computer by a spray head every time one layer of powder is paved, then descending one layer of forming cylinder, lifting one layer of powder supply cylinder, paving the powder on the forming cylinder by using a powder paving roller, spraying an adhesive again, and stacking layer by layer to finally obtain an uncured biscuit. d) And (3) placing the forming cylinder containing the biscuit in a 180 ℃ oven for 2 hours for heating and curing, and sweeping off the redundant powder to obtain the required biscuit. e) Placing the biscuit in a vacuum furnace, heating from 25 ℃ to 450 ℃ at a heating rate of 1 ℃/min, preserving heat for 2 hours for degreasing, heating to a metal sintering temperature at a heating rate of 3 ℃/min (420 stainless steel is taken as an example, the sintering temperature is set at 1350 ℃) for 2 hours, cooling to 250 ℃ at a heating rate of 5 ℃/min, and cooling to normal temperature along with the furnace, thus finally obtaining the required metal workpiece.
Taking 420 stainless steel powder as an example, the bending strength of the cured biscuit is 7.9MPa, and the sintering density is 97.97%.
