Definitions

  • This invention concerns the art of stereolithography, which is a technique for forming solid shapes from a liquid polymer precursor. More particularly, the invention relates to improvements in such polymer precursors.
  • the liquid polymer precursors of this invention produce green products having good strength at high glass transition temperatures. More particularly, this invention concerns a composition of matter useful in stereolithography that includes at least one vinyl ether, at least one epoxy, at least one acrylate and at least one photoinitiator.
  • this invention is a stereolithography polymer precursor solution that includes a pyrene sensitizer.
  • Stereolithography is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,575,330 to Hull.
  • the method involves building up a predetermined three-dimensional shape by forming a series of layers of polymerized solids. A cross-section of the solid is traced out on the surface of a bath of polymer precursors under the direction of a computer controlled system which causes the liquid to be exposed to a form of radiation such as an ultraviolet laser. After each polymerized layer is formed, it is lowered in the bath so that a new layer can be formed on top.
  • Stereolithography solutions are disclosed in WO 89/08021 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,942,001.
  • the references disclose the use of a formulation which combines both acrylates and methacrylates.
  • the polymer precursor solution is comprised of resinous polyacrylates and polymethacrylates dissolved in liquid polyacrylates and polymethacrylates.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,844,144 discloses dispersing a thermoplastic material in a stereolithography liquid polymer precursor so that the solid formed by stereolithography contains a thermoplastic material.
  • a solid polymer is said to be useful in the investment casting process since the thermoplastic material prevents the acrylate polymer from expanding when the solid is burned out of a mold.
  • the acrylates and methacrylates used as polymer precursors are closely related to those disclosed in WO 89/08021 discussed above.
  • coatings intended for use in optical glass fibers were said to have application to stereolithography as well.
  • Such coatings included vinyl ether terminated polyurethane produced from certain diisocyanates reacting with polyols and then capping with monohydroxyl vinyl ethers.
  • WO 90/03989 addressed the use of vinyl ethers in stereolithography using a transvinylation reaction product to react with a diisocyanate to form urethane oligomers.
  • the transvinylation reaction converted a polyhydric alcohol into products having one or more of the hydroxyl groups in the alcohol converted to a vinyl ether group.
  • the mixture was then reacted with a diisocyanate via the residual hydroxyl groups to produce a vinyl ether urethane.
  • Vinyl ethers have been combined with epoxy compounds for use as coatings.
  • Crivello reported (Journal of Radiation Curing, Jan. 1983, p. 6-13) UV cure of vinyl ether-epoxy mixtures using cationic photoinitiators.
  • the faster curing of vinyl ethers was advantageous, while the epoxy compounds provided their inherent properties to the film.
  • stereolithography fabricated plastic parts An important and still frequently encountered problem in using stereolithography fabricated plastic parts is their capacity to soften and subsequently distort at moderately elevated temperatures. This phenomenon to distort when heated can usually be traced to a moderate or low glass transition temperature (Tg) (most stereolithography parts exhibit a Tg in the range of 50°C to 85°C) which, ultimately is a function of the polymer precursors used to fabricate the parts.
  • Tg glass transition temperature
  • Another problem with current high accuracy stereolithography resins including resins based on epoxy-polyol/acrylate polymers is their water/humidity sensitivity. Water exposure leads to lower effective modulus of elasticity and lower dimensional accuracy rendering the stereolithography parts unsuitable for high temperature applications.
  • compositions useful in stereolithography have been sought, particularly with regard to improving the accuracy of the finished parts.
  • the present invention relates to improved stereolithography polymer precursor compositions which provide advantages over those previously disclosed.
  • One object of this invention is a liquid polymer precursor composition that is useful in a sterolithography process to manufacture solid articles that are not tacky to the touch.
  • Another object of this invention is a liquid polymer precursor composition that is useful in a stereolithography process to manufacture a solid article that has a glass transition temperature (Tg) greater than the boiling point of water.
  • Tg glass transition temperature
  • Yet another object of this invention is a liquid polymer precursor composition including vinyl ethers do not terminate polymerization by chain transfer.
  • Still another object of this invention is a liquid polymer precursor composition that produces a stereolithography product that is harder and less tacky than conventional stereolithography products.
  • a further object of this invention is a stereolithography polymer precursor that includes a pyrene sensitizer.
  • the liquid polymer precursor includes at least one vinyl ether functionalized compound, at least one epoxy functionalized compound, at least one acrylate functionalized compound, and an effective amount of at least one photoinitiator.
  • this invention is a liquid polymer precursor comprising from about 5 to about 15 weight percent of difunctional, and polyfunctional vinyl ether terminated monomers, oligomers and mixtures thereof, at least one cycloaliphatic diepoxy in an amount of from 4 to 7 times the amount of the vinyl ether present in the polymer precursor, at least one non- volatile diacrylate in an amount of from 3 to 5 times the amount of vinyl ether present in the polymer precursor, at least one cationic photoinitiator, at least one free radical photoinitiator, and at least one compound selected from an alcohol, a diol, a polyol, and mixtures thereof.
  • this invention is a process for forming a three- dimensional object from a liquid polymer precursor of this invention comprising repeatedly exposing the surface of a bath of said precursor to a beam of actinic light to solidify successive layers of said precursor to make a green structure. The green is then cured.
  • this invention is a cured stereolithography product manufactured using the liquid polymer precursors of this invention.
  • the present invention includes novel polymer precursor compositions useful in stereolithography.
  • the present invention is a method of manufacturing articles using the polymer precursor compositions of this invention in a stereolithography process.
  • This invention includes stereolithography parts having a glass transition temperatures greater than the boiling point of water that are manufactured using the compositions of this invention.

  • the vinyl ethers may be monofunctional, difunctional or polyfunctional vinyl ethers with difunctional and polyfunctional vinyl ether terminated monomers and oligomers being preferred.

  • Most preferred epoxy functionalized compounds are cycloaliphatic epoxy compounds and especially cycloaliphatic diepoxies.
  • Cycloaliphatic diepoxies are preferred because they effectively compete with vinyl ether functional groups for photo-generated acids.
  • the epoxy functionalized compounds scavenge the photo generated acids, in the preference to the vinyl ethers the vinyl ethers can effectively be incorporated into a growing radical initiated acrylate copolymer.
  • Tg's By permitting the vinyl ether to react to selectively form a vinyl ether acrylate copolymer higher product Tg's are attained.
