Description
La présente invention appartient au domaine technique des compositions pour impression 3D.The present invention belongs to the technical field of compositions for 3D printing.
Plus particulièrement, l’invention concerne des compositions de filaments consommables pour impression 3D comprenant au moins polyhydroxyalcanoate. L’invention concerne également un procédé de préparation de telles compositions. L’invention concerne encore des filaments consommables pour impression 3D comprenant de telles compositions.More particularly, the invention relates to compositions of consumable filaments for 3D printing comprising at least polyhydroxyalkanoate.

Art antérieurPrior art
Les polyhydroxyalcanoates (PHA) sont des polyesters de type thermoplastiques naturels qui peuvent être utilisés en remplacement des plastiques conventionnels dans différents domaines d’application, tels que les emballages de consommation, les doublures de couches jetables et les sacs poubelles, les produits alimentaires et médicaux, etc. Les efforts initiaux se sont concentrés sur leur utilisation pour des applications de moulage ou de thermoformage, en particulier pour des articles d'emballage de consommation tels que des bouteilles, des récipients pour cosmétiques, des stylos ou encore des tees de golf.Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are naturally occurring thermoplastic type polyesters that can be used as a replacement for conventional plastics in different application areas, such as consumer packaging, disposable diaper liners and trash bags, food and medical products , etc. Initial efforts have focused on their use for molding or thermoforming applications, particularly for consumer packaging items such as bottles, cosmetic containers, pens, and golf tees.
Une des propriétés les plus utiles des PHA, qui les distingue facilement des polymères dérivés de la pétrochimie, est leur origine naturelle et leur biodégradabilité, par exemple en compost domestique, industriel, dans les eaux douces ou dans l’eau de mer, et plus généralement dans tout milieu dans lequel un écosystème vivant et actif est présent.One of the most useful properties of PHAs, which easily distinguishes them from polymers derived from petrochemicals, is their natural origin and their biodegradability, for example in domestic compost, industrial compost, in fresh water or in sea water, and more. generally in any environment in which a living and active ecosystem is present.
La vitesse de biodégradation de ces PHA va dépendre de différents facteurs. La présence de microorganismes, la température, le pH, le poids moléculaire et la cristallinité en sont les principaux.The rate of biodegradation of these PHAs will depend on various factors. The presence of microorganisms, temperature, pH, molecular weight and crystallinity are the main ones.
Les PHA sont synthétisés naturellement par certains microorganismes lorsque l’environnement naturel est défavorable. Ce sont des molécules de réserves permettant au microorganisme de survivre.PHAs are synthesized naturally by certain microorganisms when the natural environment is unfavourable. These are reserve molecules allowing the microorganism to survive.
La production de ces PHA par voie biotechnologique utilise notamment des biofermenteurs qui permettent de contrôler parfaitement les conditions de production de ce biopolymère.The production of these PHAs by biotechnological means uses in particular biofermentors which make it possible to perfectly control the conditions of production of this biopolymer.
La structure chimique d’un PHA est un polyester caractérisé par la longueur de la chaîne latérale en nombre de carbone. Il existe donc différentes structures chimiques de PHA :
- les PHA scl, qui comprennent de 3 à 5 carbones ;
- les PHA mcl, qui comprennent de 6 à 14 carbones ; et
- les PHA lcl, qui comprennent un nombre supérieur à 14 carbones.The chemical structure of a PHA is a polyester characterized by the length of the side chain in carbon number. There are therefore different chemical structures of PHA:
- scl PHAs, which comprise from 3 to 5 carbons;
- mcl PHAs, which comprise from 6 to 14 carbons; And
- the PHA lcl, which comprise a number greater than 14 carbons.
Il existe actuellement des compositions pour la fabrication de filaments 3D contenant des PHA. Ce sont principalement des PHB (PHA scl ayant 4 carbones) utilisés en faible quantités en formulation avec d’autres polymères qui ne sont pas des biopolymères (acide polylactique (PLA) principalement) ou des additifs (charges et fibres principalement). De telle compositions de l’art antérieur comprennent par exemple 20% de PHA pour 80% de PLA.There currently exist compositions for the manufacture of 3D filaments containing PHAs. These are mainly PHBs (PHA scl with 4 carbons) used in small quantities in formulations with other polymers that are not biopolymers (mainly polylactic acid (PLA)) or additives (mainly fillers and fibers). Such compositions of the prior art comprise for example 20% PHA for 80% PLA.
Contre toute attente, les inventeurs de la présente invention ont réussi à mettre au point des filaments 3D composés majoritairement de biopolymères PHA. Ces PHA peuvent être intégrés soit seuls en formulation dans la fabrication de ces filaments, soit avec des fibres et/ou charges, en proportion minoritaire.Against all expectations, the inventors of the present invention succeeded in developing 3D filaments composed mainly of PHA biopolymers. These PHAs can be integrated either alone in the formulation in the manufacture of these filaments, or with fibers and/or fillers, in a minority proportion.
Description de l'inventionDescription of the invention
L’invention consiste donc en des compositions comprenant au moins un PHA en tant qu’ingrédient majoritaire. Ces compositions sont adaptées à la fabrication de filaments pouvant être utilisés en impression 3D. Une technique d’impression 3D qui met en œuvre ces compositions est par exemple l’impression 3D par dépôt de matière fondue, qui consiste à déposer un matériau fondu, type plastique, par couches successives via une extrudeuse qui se déplace et construit un objet physique en suivant un dessin défini par un fichier de conception assistée par ordinateur.The invention therefore consists of compositions comprising at least one PHA as major ingredient. These compositions are suitable for the manufacture of filaments that can be used in 3D printing. A 3D printing technique that implements these compositions is, for example, 3D printing by deposition of molten material, which consists of depositing a molten material, such as plastic, in successive layers via an extruder which moves and builds a physical object. following a drawing defined by a computer-aided design file.
