Description

Optical three-dimensional structure composition, three-dimensional structure, and method for producing the same

The present invention relates to a composition for optical three-dimensional modeling, a three-dimensional molded article, and a method for producing the same.

In recent years, attention has been focused on an optical three-dimensional molding technique for producing a three-dimensional molded object by laminating a cured layer formed by curing a photocurable resin by scanning with an ultraviolet laser based on three-dimensional CAD data. According to the optical three-dimensional modeling technology (hereinafter, “optical three-dimensional modeling” is also referred to as “stereo modeling”), a prototype can be easily and quickly manufactured without preparing a mold or a mold. The time and cost required from product development design to production can be reduced. BACKGROUND ART With the rapid spread of three-dimensional CAD, stereolithography has been adopted in a wide variety of industrial fields such as automobile parts, electric equipment, and medical equipment.

性能 With the expansion of the application field of the optical three-dimensional molding technology, the performance required for the photocurable resin is also increasing. In particular, a three-dimensional structure that has a high curing speed, excellent dimensional stability and dimensional accuracy during curing, is resistant to breakage even when subjected to external stress such as bending, and has excellent mechanical properties such as toughness and durability and heat resistance. There is a demand for a photocurable resin capable of forming a resin. For example, when a (meth) acrylate of a polyglycerin alkylene oxide adduct (addition mole number: 50 to 200) is contained as a raw material of a photocurable resin, a coating film is prepared by irradiation with active energy rays. It is described that a photocurable resin which does not cause warpage of a base film or cracks of a coating film was obtained (Patent Document 1).

In addition, with the development of three-dimensional molding technology, there is a demand for a photocurable resin that can be applied to applications requiring higher heat resistance, such as a three-dimensional molded product used for an engine part, for example, a specific cationic polymerization. There have been proposed compositions containing a volatile organic substance and a specific compound having two oxetanyl groups (Patent Documents 2, 3, and 4).

商用 Manufactured objects manufactured by stereolithography often have complicated shapes, and must be adapted to applications in which force is applied, bent, or heated. However, in general, in the production of a three-dimensional object, a three-dimensional object is produced by superimposing a plurality of thin cured film layers having a thickness of about 20 to 100 microns formed by scanning an optical molding composition with an ultraviolet laser.

By adding the component (E) to the composition for optical three-dimensional modeling, the photocuring reaction is further promoted, and all the polymerizable components in the composition are cured (bonded) to form a three-dimensional molded article. It is possible to obtain high mechanical strength and flexibility.

The optional component (F) is represented by the following general formula (1)

Is a polyoxyethylene polyglyceryl ether / acrylic acid adduct having the structure: By adding the radical polymerizable compound of the component (F) to the composition for optical stereolithography, the curing speed and the curing shrinkage are further improved.

平均 The average polymerization degree n of the polyglycerol of the polyoxyethylene polyglyceryl ether / acrylic acid adduct of the component (F) is in the range of 2 to 20, preferably in the range of 4 to 20. When the average degree of polymerization is 1, that is, glycerin, the curing speed becomes slow. When the average degree of polymerization is larger than 20, it becomes difficult to produce the radically polymerizable compound.

The polymerization degree (number of moles of addition) m of ethylene oxide of the polyoxyethylene polyglyceryl ether / acrylic acid adduct of the component (F) is in the range of 50 to 200 moles, preferably 60 moles, per mole of polyglycerin. In the range of １５０150 mol. If the number of added moles is less than 50 moles, the cured product loses flexibility and hydrophilicity. When the number of added moles is larger than 200 moles, it becomes difficult to produce the radically polymerizable compound.

は As for the conversion of acrylic acid of the polyoxyethylene polyglyceryl ether / acrylic acid adduct of the component (F), it is preferable to react three or more of the hydroxyl groups of the ethylene oxide adduct of one molecule of polyglycerin.

The polyoxyethylene polyglyceryl / acrylic acid adduct of the component (F) can be synthesized by a known method, or a commercially available product can be used. For example, SA-TE6 of the polyglycerin acrylate series manufactured by Sakamoto Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. SA-TE60, SA-ZE12, and the like.

The content of the polyoxyethylene polyglycerin / acrylic acid adduct of the component (F) is preferably in the range of 5 to 40% by mass, more preferably 10 to 30% by mass, based on the total amount of the composition for optical stereolithography. % Range. When the content of the component (F) is less than 5% by mass, the effect of improving the curing speed and curing shrinkage is not sufficiently exhibited. When the content exceeds 40% by mass, the curing is too fast, the mutual adhesion between the thin cured film layers is deteriorated, the strength of the three-dimensional structure is reduced, and the water resistance of the three-dimensional structure is also reduced. .

The composition for optical three-dimensional modeling includes, as other components, a solvent for dissolving or dispersing the component (C), a curing accelerator, a polymerization inhibitor, an ultraviolet absorber, a fluorescent brightener, and a coloring agent (dye, organic Pigments, inorganic pigments), luminescent agents, phosphorescent particles, organic polymer particles, cellulosic particles, metal particles, conductive fillers, cationic photopolymerizable curing components, biodegradable plastics, biomass plastics, starch, etc. It can be contained in a range that does not adversely affect the properties of the composition for three-dimensional modeling. The content of other components is not particularly limited, and can be appropriately adjusted by those skilled in the art.

立体 The three-dimensional structure according to the present embodiment is a cured product of the above-described composition for optical three-dimensional structure. The three-dimensional object can be applied to a wide range of fields.

Examples include a plastic molded article for medical use, a plastic medical instrument for medical use, and an automobile part.

The method of manufacturing a three-dimensional molded object according to the present embodiment includes at least a step of irradiating the above-described composition for optical three-dimensional molding with an active energy ray to cure the composition, and a conventional optical three-dimensional molding method and a conventional stereolithography apparatus Can be done using

For example, (a) based on contour data created by slicing shape data input by three-dimensional CAD into several thin cross-sections, selectively apply active energy rays to the surface of the composition for optical three-dimensional modeling. Irradiating to form a cured layer, (b) further supplying a composition for optical three-dimensional modeling onto the cured layer, and (c) selectively irradiating active energy rays as in the step (a). And (d) a step of repeatedly performing the lamination operation to newly form a cured layer continuous with the above-described cured layer, thereby providing a target three-dimensional structure. The thickness of the single layer or the laminated cured layer can be, for example, 20 to 200 μm. The smaller the thickness of the hardened layer, the higher the shaping accuracy can be. However, the time and cost required for the production increase, so that the thickness can be appropriately adjusted in consideration of the balance between them.

The stereolithography apparatus used for the production of a three-dimensional object made of a cured product of the optical three-dimensional object composition is not particularly limited. For example, ATOMm-4000 (manufactured by Seamet), DigitalWax® 020X (sea) And three-dimensional additive manufacturing apparatuses such as ACCULAS (registered trademark) BA-85S (manufactured by D-MEC).

The active energy ray for irradiating the composition for optical stereolithography is, for example, ultraviolet light, visible light, radiation, X-ray, or electron beam, and is preferably ultraviolet light or visible light. The wavelength of ultraviolet light or visible light is preferably from 300 to 500 nm. Ultraviolet or visible light sources include, but are not limited to, semiconductor-excited solid-state lasers, carbon arc lamps, mercury lamps, metal halide lamps, xenon lamps, chemical lamps, white LEDs, and the like.
In particular, it is preferable to use a laser from the viewpoint of modeling accuracy and curability.

(4) After the stacking operation is completed, it is preferable to wash the three-dimensional structure and the three-dimensional object in order to remove the uncured optical three-dimensional structure composition adhered to the obtained three-dimensional object and the three-dimensional object. For washing, water or a mixture of water and a surfactant, a bactericide, a preservative, and / or an alcohol can be used. After the washing, post-curing can be performed by irradiation with active energy rays such as ultraviolet rays or visible rays or heating, if necessary.

The three-dimensional structure is a three-dimensional structure including a cured product of the above-described optical three-dimensional structure composition, and is preferably a three-dimensional structure formed by laminating a cured layer formed by curing the optical three-dimensional structure composition. It is a model. The three-dimensional structure is manufactured by, for example, the above-described method of manufacturing a three-dimensional structure. The three-dimensional structure has a high degree of strength (for example, bending strength, flexural modulus, repetitive bending strength, etc.) because the cured layer films are in close contact with each other so that warpage is small, and the adhesion between layers is good. Can be obtained.

The evaluation criteria were as follows: when there was a gap between the layers (“x”), and when there was no gap between the layers (“Δ”). The results are shown in Table 2.

3. Observation of warpage of optical three-dimensional object The flat plate of the evaluation sample B is placed on a flat base, and the distance at which the end of the flat plate floats from the flat base is measured. The criterion for the determination is that when the floating distance is 2 mm or more (“×”), when the floating distance is 2 mm or less (“△”), the floating distance is 0 mm, that is, when the floating distance is not (“〇”). ). The results are shown in Table 2.

After the test, the appearance of the bent portion is visually observed. The criterion for judgment was Δ: no change, Δ: white discoloration, ▲: cracked, ×: broken.

Table 2 shows the evaluation, observation, and test results of 1 to 7 described above. Compositions for optical stereolithography of Reference Examples 1 to 12 using a diallyl phthalate-based polymer as the component (A) and Examples 1 to 3 using a diallylcycloalkane-based polymer which is a non-phthalate-type allyl resin are described in US Pat. Since the curing time is up to 10 seconds, it can be seen that the curing time is shorter than that of the comparative example, the sensitivity is high, and the curing speed is high. This indicates that the cured density is high. In addition, the three-dimensional molded products obtained by laminating the cured layers of the optical three-dimensional molding compositions of Reference Examples 1 to 12 and Examples 1 to 3 are warped because the cured films are in close contact with each other. It was not observed, and was excellent in tensile strength, elongation, bending strength and flexural modulus, and repeated bending strength, and almost no drop crack was observed.
