Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Granulats.The present invention relates to a method for producing a granulate.
Ferner betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung ein Granulat, welches ein Coating aufweist.The present invention also relates to a granulate which has a coating.
Weiter betrifft die Erfindung ein 3D-Druckverfahren, insbesondere zur Herstellung eines Grünkörpers für eine Keramisierung.The invention also relates to a 3D printing method, in particular for producing a green body for ceramization.
Ferner betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines keramischen Bauteils sowie ein keramisches Bauteil, hergestellt nach dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren.The present invention also relates to a method for producing a ceramic component and a ceramic component produced by the method according to the invention.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren bereitzustellen, mit welchem sich ein Granulat herstellen lässt, welches sich in einem extrusionsbasierten Verfahren 3D-drucken lässt und mit welchem sich ein Grünkörper herstellen lässt, der sich zur späteren Keramisierung eignet.The present invention is based on the object of providing a method with which a granulate can be produced, which can be 3D-printed in an extrusion-based process and with which a green body can be produced which is suitable for later ceramization.
Die zuvor genannte Aufgabe wird durch ein Verfahren gelöst, umfassend:
- - Herstellen einer thermoplastischen Polymerzusammensetzung in einer Extrusionsvorrichtung;
- - Extrusion der thermoplastischen Polymerzusammensetzung;
- - Zerkleinerung der extrudierten thermoplastischen Polymerzusammensetzung unter Ausbildung eines thermoplastischen Granulats; und
- - Zugabe eines Vernetzungsmittels zu dem thermoplastischen Granulat, wobei das Vernetzungsmittel ein Coating auf dem oder an dem thermoplastischen Granulat bildet und wobei das Vernetzungsmittel ein thermisch aktivierbares Vernetzungsmittel ist, welches bei Temperaturen von 3D-Druckverfahren aktiviert wird.
- - producing a thermoplastic polymer composition in an extrusion device;
- - extrusion of the thermoplastic polymer composition;
- Comminution of the extruded thermoplastic polymer composition to form thermoplastic granules; and
- Addition of a crosslinking agent to the thermoplastic granules, the crosslinking agent forming a coating on or on the thermoplastic granules, and the crosslinking agent being a thermally activatable crosslinking agent which is activated at temperatures of 3D printing processes.
Dadurch, dass das Vernetzungsmittel zu dem thermoplastischen Granulat zugegeben wird und ein Coating für das Granulat bildet, kann in einem 3D-Druckverfahren eine Vernetzung von Materialien einer unmittelbar zuvor aufgetragenen Schicht mit Materialien von bereits zuvor aufgetragenen Schichten stattfinden. Ein Abtragen von bereits aufgetragenen Schichten in einem 3D-Druckverfahren kann so vermieden werden.Because the crosslinking agent is added to the thermoplastic granulate and forms a coating for the granulate, materials from a layer applied immediately beforehand can be crosslinked in a 3D printing process with materials from previously applied layers. A removal of already applied layers in a 3D printing process can thus be avoided.
Das Vernetzungsmittel umhüllt vorzugsweise einzelne oder im Wesentlichen sämtliche Partikel des Granulats und/oder bildet eine Schicht darauf aus.The crosslinking agent preferably envelops individual or essentially all particles of the granulate and / or forms a layer thereon.
Die Auswahl eines thermisch aktivierbaren Vernetzungsmittels, welches bei Temperaturen von 3D-Druckverfahren aktiviert wird, führt dazu, dass eine Vernetzung von Polymermolekülen des Granulats, welches das Coating aufweist, erst im aufgeschmolzenen Zustand während des 3D-Druckverfahrens auftritt.The selection of a thermally activatable crosslinking agent, which is activated at temperatures of 3D printing processes, means that crosslinking of polymer molecules of the granulate, which has the coating, only occurs in the melted state during the 3D printing process.
Durch die Verwendung des erfindungsgemäßen Vernetzungsmittels ist ein thermoplastisches Granulat herstellbar, mittels welchem sich Grünkörper für Keramisierungen in einem 3D-Druckverfahren herstellen lassen.By using the crosslinking agent according to the invention, a thermoplastic granulate can be produced by means of which green bodies for ceramization can be produced in a 3D printing process.
Durch das 3D-Druckverfahren ist wiederum eine endkonturnahe Fertigung des Grünkörpers möglich.The 3D printing process in turn enables the green body to be manufactured close to its final shape.
Die thermoplastische Polymerzusammensetzung umfasst vorzugsweise einen oder mehrere Füllstoffe.The thermoplastic polymer composition preferably comprises one or more fillers.
Vorzugsweise wird die thermoplastische Polymerzusammensetzung zu einem Filament extrudiert.Preferably the thermoplastic polymer composition is extruded into a filament.
Die Zerkleinerung erfolgt vorzugsweise in Form einer Pelletierung.The comminution is preferably carried out in the form of pelleting.
Für die Pelletierung der extrudierten thermoplastischen Polymerzusammensetzung wird vorzugsweise ein herkömmlicher Pelletierer verwendet.A conventional pelletizer is preferably used to pellet the extruded thermoplastic polymer composition.
Temperaturen, bei welchen 3D-Druckverfahren typischerweise durchgeführt werden, liegen vorzugsweise in einem Bereich von circa 140°C bis circa 250°C, insbesondere in einem Bereich von circa 150°C bis circa 190°C, beispielsweise in einem Bereich von circa 150°C bis circa 180°C.Temperatures at which 3D printing processes are typically carried out are preferably in a range from approximately 140 ° C. to approximately 250 ° C., in particular in a range from approximately 150 ° C. to approximately 190 ° C., for example in a range of approximately 150 ° C to around 180 ° C.
In diesem Temperaturbereich ist das Granulat aufschmelzbar, ohne dass es zu einer Degradation kommt.The granulate can be melted in this temperature range without degradation occurring.
Die Auswahl des Vernetzungsmittels erfolgt insbesondere basierend auf dessen thermischer Aktivierungstemperatur. Bei oder oberhalb der thermischen Aktivierungstemperatur ist das Vernetzungsmittel insbesondere reaktiv und eine Vernetzungsreaktion findet statt.The selection of the crosslinking agent is based in particular on its thermal activation temperature. At or above the thermal activation temperature, the crosslinking agent is in particular reactive and a crosslinking reaction takes place.
Die thermische Aktivierungstemperatur sollte vorzugsweise im Bereich einer Bearbeitungstemperatur in einem anschließenden 3D-Druckverfahren oder knapp darüber, beispielsweise 10°C bis 20°C darüber, liegen. Diese wiederum ist abhängig von der verwendeten thermoplastischen Polymerzusammensetzung.The thermal activation temperature should preferably be in the range of a processing temperature in a subsequent 3D printing process or just above it, for example 10 ° C to 20 ° C above. This in turn depends on the thermoplastic polymer composition used.
Organische Peroxide haben sich als besonders geeignet als Vernetzungsmittel erwiesen. Insbesondere sind flüssige organische Peroxide bevorzugt und/oder einfach handhabbar.Organic peroxides have proven particularly useful as crosslinking agents. In particular, liquid organic peroxides are preferred and / or easy to handle.
Vorzugsweise umfasst das Vernetzungsmittel ein organisches Peroxid oder besteht im Wesentlichen aus einem organischen Peroxid. Thermische Aktivierungstemperaturen von organischen Peroxiden liegen typischerweise in einem Temperaturbereich, in welchem 3D-Druckverfahren durchgeführt werden, oder knapp darüber, beispielsweise 10°C bis 20°C darüber.Preferably, the crosslinking agent comprises an organic peroxide or consists essentially of an organic peroxide. Thermal activation temperatures of organic peroxides are typically in a temperature range in which 3D printing processes are carried out, or just above, for example 10 ° C to 20 ° C above.
Auch wenn die Aktivierungstemperatur knapp über dem Temperaturbereich, in welchem 3D-Druckverfahren durchgeführt werden, liegt, findet - insbesondere aufgrund von einer Scherkraft, welche während der Verarbeitung auf das Granulat mit dem Coating wirkt - eine Vernetzung statt.Even if the activation temperature is just above the temperature range in which 3D printing processes are carried out, crosslinking takes place - in particular due to a shear force which acts on the granulate with the coating during processing.
Als besonders vorteilhaft hat es sich erwiesen, wenn das Vernetzungsmittel 3,3,5,7,7-Pentamethyl-1,2,4-trioxepan (PMTO) umfasst oder im Wesentlichen aus 3,3,5,7,7-Pentamethyl-1,2,4-trioxepan (PMTO) besteht.It has proven to be particularly advantageous if the crosslinking agent comprises 3,3,5,7,7-pentamethyl-1,2,4-trioxepane (PMTO) or essentially consists of 3,3,5,7,7-pentamethyl- 1,2,4-trioxepane (PMTO) consists.

Vorteilhaft kann es sein, wenn das Vernetzungsmittel in einem Anteil von weniger als 2 Gew.-%, insbesondere weniger als 1 Gew.-%, zugegeben wird. Der Anteil des Vernetzungsmittels ist dabei auf eine Gesamtmasse des thermoplastischen Granulats bezogen.It can be advantageous if the crosslinking agent is added in a proportion of less than 2% by weight, in particular less than 1% by weight. The proportion of the crosslinking agent is based on a total mass of the thermoplastic granulate.
Ein solch geringer Anteil ist insbesondere ausreichend, damit eine Vernetzung von Polymermolekülen des aufgeschmolzenen Granulats während des 3D-Druckverfahrens stattfindet.Such a small proportion is particularly sufficient for crosslinking of polymer molecules of the melted granulate to take place during the 3D printing process.
Beispielsweise wird das Vernetzungsmittel in einem Anteil von circa 0,25 Gew.-% bis circa 1 Gew.- % bezogen die Gesamtmasse des thermoplastischen Granulats zugegeben.For example, the crosslinking agent is added in a proportion of approximately 0.25% by weight to approximately 1% by weight, based on the total mass of the thermoplastic granulate.
Als besonders bevorzugt hat es sich erwiesen, wenn circa 0,28 Gew.-% Vernetzungsmittel bezogen auf die Gesamtmasse des thermoplastischen Granulats zu dem thermoplastischen Granulat zugegeben werden.It has proven to be particularly preferred if approximately 0.28% by weight of crosslinking agent, based on the total mass of the thermoplastic granulate, is added to the thermoplastic granulate.

The thermoplastic binder is preferably an EVA with a vinyl acetate content of approximately 9% by weight to approximately 20% by weight, in particular approximately 14% by weight vinyl acetate, based on the total mass of the EVA.
Ein Anteil des Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Copolymers liegt insbesondere in einem Bereich von circa 20 Gew.-% bis circa 35 Gew.-%, beispielsweise in einem Bereich von circa 30 Gew.-% bis circa 35 Gew.-%, bezogen auf eine Gesamtmasse der thermoplastischen Polymerzusammensetzung.A proportion of the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer is in particular in a range from about 20% by weight to about 35% by weight, for example in a range from about 30% by weight to about 35% by weight, based on a Total mass of the thermoplastic polymer composition.
Besonders bevorzugt wird ein Anteil von circa 32,5 Gew.-% eines Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Copolymers eingesetzt.A proportion of approximately 32.5% by weight of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer is particularly preferably used.
Dieser Anteil ist ausreichend, um die mehreren Füllstoffe als Matrixmaterial miteinander zu verbinden. Die Füllstoffe sind insbesondere in das als Bindemittel wirkende Polymermaterial eingebettet.This proportion is sufficient to connect the multiple fillers to one another as a matrix material. The fillers are in particular embedded in the polymer material acting as a binder.

Das Filament wird anschließend zerkleinert, beispielsweise pelletiert.It can be favorable if the thermoplastic polymer composition is produced at a temperature in a range from approximately 180.degree. C. to approximately 200.degree. In particular, the thermoplastic polymer composition is then extruded into a filament. The filament is then comminuted, for example pelletized.
Vorzugsweise wird das thermoplastische Granulat vor der Zugabe des Vernetzungsmittels getrocknet. Bei dem Trocknen härtet das thermoplastische Granulat insbesondere im Wesentlichen vollständig aus. Die Trocknung wird insbesondere bei circa 70°C bis circa 90°C in einem Trockenofen durchgeführt.The thermoplastic granules are preferably dried before the addition of the crosslinking agent. During drying, the thermoplastic granulate hardens, in particular, essentially completely. The drying is carried out in particular at around 70 ° C to around 90 ° C in a drying oven.
Vorzugsweise erfolgt die Zugabe des Vernetzungsmittels bei einer Temperatur, welche kleiner ist als eine thermische Aktivierungstemperatur des Vernetzungsmittels, insbesondere bei circa 20°C bis circa 80°C, beispielsweise bei circa 50°C.The crosslinking agent is preferably added at a temperature which is lower than a thermal activation temperature of the crosslinking agent, in particular at about 20 ° C to about 80 ° C, for example at about 50 ° C.
Insbesondere wird das Granulat nach der Zugabe des Vernetzungsmittels bei circa 40°C bis circa 100°C, insbesondere bei circa 80°C, getrocknet. Das thermoplastische Granulat wird insbesondere für circa eine Stunde oder länger getrocknet. Beispielsweise wird das Granulat bis zu 16 Stunden, insbesondere in einem Trockenofen, getrocknet.In particular, after the addition of the crosslinking agent, the granules are dried at around 40 ° C to around 100 ° C, in particular at around 80 ° C. In particular, the thermoplastic granulate is dried for about an hour or longer. For example, the granulate is dried for up to 16 hours, in particular in a drying oven.
Die Erfindung betrifft ferner ein Granulat, welches ein Coating aufweist, für 3D-Druckverfahren, wobei das Granulat ein thermoplastisches Granulat aus einer thermoplastischen Polymerzusammensetzung umfasst und wobei das Coating ein thermisch aktivierbares Vernetzungsmittel, welches bei Temperaturen von 3D-Druckverfahren aktiviert wird, umfasst oder daraus gebildet ist. Das Granulat, welches ein Coating aufweist, ist insbesondere hergestellt nach einem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren.The invention further relates to a granulate that has a coating for 3D printing processes, the granulate comprising a thermoplastic granulate made from a thermoplastic polymer composition and the coating comprising or consisting of a thermally activatable crosslinking agent which is activated at temperatures of 3D printing processes is formed. The granulate, which has a coating, is in particular produced by a method according to the invention.
Das Granulat, welches ein Coating aufweist, weist vorzugsweise eines oder mehrere der im Zusammenhang mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren genannten Merkmale und/oder einen oder mehrere der im Zusammenhang mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren erwähnten Vorteile auf.The granulate which has a coating preferably has one or more of the features mentioned in connection with the method according to the invention and / or one or more of the advantages mentioned in connection with the method according to the invention.
Das Granulat, welches ein Coating aufweist, kann in herkömmlichen 3D-Druckvorrichtungen verwendet werden, in welchen Granulat als Ausgangsmaterial verwendet wird.The granulate, which has a coating, can be used in conventional 3D printing devices in which granulate is used as the starting material.
Die Erfindung betrifft ferner ein 3D-Druckverfahren, insbesondere zur Herstellung eines Grünköpers für eine Keramisierung. Das 3D-Druckverfahren umfasst:
- - Herstellen eines Granulats, welches ein Coating aufweist, in einem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren oder Verwendung eines erfindungsgemäßen Granulats;
- - 3D-Drucken des Granulats in einem additiven Verfahren, wobei ein Formkörper, insbesondere ein Grünkörper für eine Keramisierung, gebildet wird.
- Production of a granulate which has a coating in a method according to the invention or use of a granulate according to the invention;
- - 3D printing of the granulate in an additive process, whereby a shaped body, in particular a green body for ceramization, is formed.
Das 3D-Drucken wird vorzugsweise mittels einer 3D-Druckvorrichtung durchgeführt, welche einen Druckkopf umfasst. Das Granulat, welches ein Coating aufweist, wird insbesondere in den Druckkopf eingefüllt und zum 3D-Drucken mittels eines Extrusionselements, welches in dem Druckkopf angeordnet ist, aufgeschmolzen.The 3D printing is preferably carried out by means of a 3D printing device which comprises a print head. The granulate, which has a coating, is in particular in the Filled in printhead and melted for 3D printing by means of an extrusion element which is arranged in the printhead.
Durch das Vernetzungsmittel, welches das Coating bildet, wird insbesondere eine Elastizität des Bindemittels, beispielsweise EVA, in dem thermoplastischen Granulat reduziert. Hierdurch ist das extrudierte Material des Granulats im Vergleich zu einem Material ohne Vernetzungsmittel formstabiler.The crosslinking agent which forms the coating, in particular, reduces the elasticity of the binder, for example EVA, in the thermoplastic granulate. As a result, the extruded material of the granulate is more dimensionally stable compared to a material without a crosslinking agent.
Durch eine von einer Rotation der Knetelemente des Extrusionselements resultierende Scherbewegung wird eine Aktivierung des Vernetzungsmittels erhöht und/oder beschleunigt.Activation of the crosslinking agent is increased and / or accelerated by a shear movement resulting from a rotation of the kneading elements of the extrusion element.
Vorzugsweise wird das 3D-Drucken mittels eines extrusionsbasierten Verfahrens durchgeführt. Insbesondere wird eine Materialextrusion in Kombination mit einem additiven, beispielsweise schichtweisen, Auftragen verwendet.The 3D printing is preferably carried out by means of an extrusion-based method. In particular, material extrusion is used in combination with additive application, for example in layers.
Die 3D-Druckvorrichtung ist beispielsweise eine Pellets Additive Manufacturing (PAM)-3D-Druckvorrichtung.The 3D printing device is, for example, a Pellets Additive Manufacturing (PAM) 3D printing device.
Durch die Verwendung eines extrusionsbasierten 3D-Druckverfahrens, kann im Vergleich - beispielsweise zu einem Pulverbettverfahren - Material eingespart werden, da nur so viel Granulat eingesetzt werden muss, wie für den jeweiligen Formkörper benötigt wird. Eine Verwendung von Material als Stützstruktur und/oder eine Füllung des gesamten Bauraums können so entbehrlich sein.By using an extrusion-based 3D printing process, material can be saved compared to, for example, a powder bed process, since only as much granulate has to be used as is required for the respective shaped body. A use of material as a support structure and / or a filling of the entire installation space can thus be dispensed with.
Die Erfindung betrifft ferner ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines keramischen Bauteils, umfassend:
- - Herstellen eines Grünkörpers gemäß einem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren;
- - Pyrolysieren des Grünkörpers, wobei ein offenporöser Kohlenstoffkörper resultiert; und

- - producing a green body according to a method according to the invention;
- Pyrolyzing the green body, an open-pore carbon body resulting; and
- - Carrying out a ceramization on the open-pore carbon body resulting from the pyrolysis.
Aufgrund der zuvor genannten Auswahl an Füllstoffen in dem Granulat beträgt eine Masse des offenporösen Kohlenstoffkörpers nach der Pyrolyse insbesondere circa 50 Gew.-% oder mehr der Masse des Grünkörpers vor der Pyrolyse.Due to the aforementioned selection of fillers in the granulate, a mass of the open-pore carbon body after pyrolysis is in particular approximately 50% by weight or more of the mass of the green body before pyrolysis.

Durch den hohen Anteil an Füllstoffen kann eine Hohlraumbildung - sogenannte Blistering-Effekte - während der Pyrolyse und/oder Keramisierung vermieden werden.Due to the high proportion of fillers, cavity formation - so-called blistering effects - can be avoided during pyrolysis and / or ceramization.
Aufgrund des hohen Anteils an Füllstoffen, welche sich während der Pyrolyse nicht verändern, liegt ein Schrumpf des Grünkörpers bei der Pyrolyse vorzugsweise bei circa 5% oder weniger.Due to the high proportion of fillers which do not change during pyrolysis, shrinkage of the green body during pyrolysis is preferably approximately 5% or less.
Die Keramisierung wird vorzugsweise durch Infiltrieren des offenporösen Kohlenstoffkörpers mit einem flüssigen Carbidbildner durchgeführt. Ein besonders bevorzugter flüssiger Carbidbildner ist Silizium.The ceramization is preferably carried out by infiltrating the open-pore carbon body with a liquid carbide former. A particularly preferred liquid carbide former is silicon.
Alternativ kann auch Wolfram als Carbidbildner verwendet werden.Alternatively, tungsten can also be used as a carbide former.
Günstig kann es sein, wenn der offenporöse Kohlenstoffkörper zur Keramisierung in einem 180 Gew.-%igen bis 200 Gew.-%igen Überschuss bezogen auf die Masse des offenporösen Kohlenstoffkörpers mit einem Carbidbildner in Kontakt gebracht wird.It can be favorable if the open-pore carbon body is brought into contact with a carbide former for ceramization in a 180% by weight to 200% by weight excess based on the mass of the open-pore carbon body.
Insbesondere wird der offenporöse Kohlenstoffkörper zur Keramisierung in einem 180 Gew.-%igen bis 200 Gew.-%igen Überschuss bezogen auf die Masse des offenporösen Kohlenstoffkörpers mit einem Carbidbildner, insbesondere Silizium, infiltriert.In particular, the open-pore carbon body is infiltrated with a carbide former, in particular silicon, in a 180% by weight to 200% by weight excess based on the mass of the open-pore carbon body for ceramization.
Die Erfindung betrifft ferner ein keramisches Bauteil, hergestellt nach einem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren.The invention also relates to a ceramic component produced by a method according to the invention.
Erfindungsgemäß hergestellte keramische Bauteile eignen sich insbesondere für optische Bauteile und/oder Bauteile für Satelliten oder andere Flugkörper.Ceramic components produced according to the invention are particularly suitable for optical components and / or components for satellites or other missiles.
Weitere Verwendungsgebiete sind keramische Wärmeübertrager und Widersta ndsheizelemente .Further areas of application are ceramic heat exchangers and resistance heating elements.
