Description

Glass-containing preparation for use in an additive manufacturing process

In general, the invention relates to a glass-containing preparation for additive manufacturing processes. In particular, the invention relates to a preparation with glass particles made from a multi-component glass with a high degree of filling.

Methods for the additive manufacturing of three-dimensional bodies have the advantage over conventional manufacturing methods in that no shape of the body is required. This means that additive manufacturing processes such as 3D printing can also be used to produce small quantities or just individual pieces cost-effectively.

3D printing is primarily used for polymeric materials, but processes are also known in which preparations with quartz glass are used. The preparation usually contains a polymerizable monomer and glass particles dispersed therein. A corresponding method is described in WO 2018/0650930A. The monomer is liquid at room temperature and therefore serves as a dispersing medium. By polymerizing the monomer after application of the preparation, it becomes solid and acts as a binder between the glass particles. The green body obtained in this way is subsequently debinded by burning out the polymeric matrix and then sintered, whereby the glass particles are connected to one another.

In order to ensure high shape accuracy, the solids content in the preparation, ie the proportion of glass particles in the preparation, should be as high as possible. At the same time, however, the preparation must still be suitable for use in 3D printing. This means that special requirements are placed on the rheology of the preparation. So The viscosity of the preparation must not be too high, otherwise the preparation is not suitable for use in 3D printing. At the same time, however, an increase in the solids content leads to an increase in viscosity. The maximum solids content of a preparation for 3D printing is therefore limited by its viscosity.

Furthermore, the prior art only discloses preparations whose glass particles are made of quartz glass. Thus, for example, the refractive indices to be achieved for the body thus obtained are in a relatively narrow range. In addition, the particles are obtained via a bottom-up process, ie through formation from appropriate precursors in a sol-gel process or through pyrolytic deposition. As a result, the quartz particles have a predominantly spherical structure and a monodisperse or at least narrow particle size distribution.

The invention is therefore based on the object of providing a preparation for use in an additive manufacturing process, in particular in a 3D printing process, with which the smallest possible shrinkage between the printed and sintered, compacted component can be obtained. In addition, the optical properties of the component should be able to be varied within a larger range. Another task is to provide a corresponding additive manufacturing process for realizing the component.

The task is already solved by the subject matter of the independent claims.

Advantageous refinements and further developments are the subject of the subclaims. The invention describes a formulation of a preparation for additive manufacturing processes of three-dimensional bodies, in particular for 3D printing, which enables the smallest possible shrinkage between the printed and sintered compacted component and at the same time has good processability in the printing process.

The preparation comprises at least one monomer and glass particles dispersed therein. The glass particles include at least one multi-component glass. For the purposes of the invention, a multi-component glass is understood to mean a glass which, in addition to SiCE, has at least one further glass component. For the purposes of the invention, a component is to be understood in particular as meaning a chemical element that is contained in the glass with at least 1% of the total weight. By choosing the glass, optical properties such as the refractive index or the thermal expansion coefficient of the manufactured body can be adjusted.

The glass particles in the glass paste have a cumulative particle size distribution that approximates the Andreassen model. The glass particles preferably have a maximum grain size d99 of less than 500 pm, preferably less than 200 pm and particularly preferably less than 100 pm.

The Andreassen model describes the possibility of filling a space as densely as possible with spherical particles so that the remaining cavity is as small as possible but the mixture is still able to flow. By using particles with a broad particle size distribution, under this condition a volume can be filled with a significantly higher degree of filling, ie with more particles per volume, than when using particles with a narrow particle distribution or even monodisperse particles. In the case of particles with a wide particle distribution, the smaller particles can lie in the cavities that are formed between the larger particles and thus make better use of the space. The Andreassen model specifies an idealized particle size distribution with which the maximum degree of filling of a room with spherical particles at the same time

Flowability of the mixture can be achieved:

d ... particle size

D ... maximum particle size q ... distribution coefficient

The particle size “d” is determined as follows: the individual particles of a powder are divided into different fractions, regardless of their real shape, based on the diameter of a sphere with its equivalent volume (volume-equivalent sphere diameter). To determine the particle distribution Q, the respective number of the corresponding fractions within the powder is determined. The Andreassen equation uses the particle distribution Qs(d), which is calculated from the volume of the respective fractions.

The q value represents the slope of the Andreassen equation in a double logarithmic plot. By varying the q value, the deviations of the real particles from the ideal model particles are taken into account. These deviations can occur, for example, due to a shape of the particles that deviates from an ideal sphere or interactions between the particles or with the dispersion medium.

Particles that tend to agglomerate due to interaction with the disperse phase show poorer rheological properties at small q values, i.e. at broad particle size distributions that would have a high degree of filling.

Which is why a higher q-value can be advantageous here. However, as the q value increases, the mixture becomes coarser and more difficult to process. Mixtures with a high fineness, on the other hand, have a low q value.

The inventors have surprisingly discovered that higher filling levels in the paste can be achieved by choosing the q value. The q-value is chosen so that: it is small enough to enable the finest possible particle composition, but at the same time is large enough that correspondingly coarse particles ensure sufficient flowability of the paste. Therefore, the Andreassen equation of the glass pastes according to the invention has a q value in the range from 0.2 to 0.5. Particularly high maximum volume filling levels are achieved in glass pastes whose Andreassen equation has a q value in the range of 0.25 to 0.4.

Andreassen's idealized model can only partially represent real particle distribution. Due to the material properties and the manufacturing process, the particle distributions correspond more or less to the ideal distribution. In practice, the solution is to mix different particle size distributions so that the mixture distribution corresponds as closely as possible to the Andreassen distribution.

These mixtures can be calculated using calculation tools (e.g. EMMA). The individual fractions are compared to each other in a volume-weighted manner. The resulting mixed fraction of the glass particles ideally has a cumulative particle size distribution, with the cumulative particle size distribution of the fraction Q3real showing only a slight deviation from the ideal cumulative Andreassen distribution function Q3-Andreassen. The particle size distribution of the fraction Q3,reai, which corresponds to a random sample with n particle fractions, shows a square distance 5 ² from the ideal cumulative Andreassen distribution function Qs-Andreassen

of less than 0.03. Here, the value n > 100, preferably in the range from 100 to 1000. According to an advantageous embodiment, the distance 5 ² from the ideal cumulative Andreassen distribution is less than 0.02, preferably less than 0.015.

Due to the small deviation of the particle distribution from the ideal Andreassen distribution, relatively high filling levels can be achieved in the glass pastes according to the invention, while at the same time the viscosity is low enough for processing the corresponding paste in an additive manufacturing process, especially in 3D printing. According to one embodiment, the viscosity of the paste at room temperature and a shear rate of 200 1/s is in the range from 100 to 10,000 mPas. Preferably the viscosity at room temperature and a shear rate of 200 1/s is less than 6000 mPas or even less than 3000 mPas.

Alternatively or additionally, according to a further embodiment, the paste has a viscosity of less than 10,000 mPas at room temperature and a shear rate of 30 1/s. The viscosity at this heavy speed is preferably in the range from 150 to 10,000 mPas, preferably the viscosity at this shear speed is less than 6000 mPas, particularly preferably less than 3000 mPas.

One embodiment provides that the degree of filling, i.e. the volume fraction of the glass particles in the total volume of the paste, is at least 12% by volume, preferably at least 15% by volume and particularly preferably at least 20% by volume. The degree of filling is preferably in the range from 12 to 50 vol.-%, in particular in the range from 20 to 40 vol.-%.

The Andreassen equation, which the paste according to the invention satisfies, has a q value in the range from 0.2 to 0.5. In order to achieve a correspondingly low q value and, as a result, a high degree of filling in the glass paste system, the dispersed particles should be adapted as well as possible to the disperse phase, in particular to the monomer. If the glass particles and the disperse phase have good surface compatibility, smaller q values can be achieved in the powder mixtures, which allows the particle packing to be optimized. The interactions between the individual phases can be described by the Hansen parameters 5i. The Hansen parameter 5i takes into account both the disperse component 5D, the polar component 5p and the component of surface interactions through hydrogen bonds 5H:

The closer the Hansen parameters of glass particles and dispersant are to each other, the stronger the attractive interactions between dispersed particles (disperse phase) and the dispersant and the more stable the dispersion. A further development of the invention therefore provides that the glass particles used and the monomers in the paste are coordinated with one another with regard to their Hansen parameters. Glass particles and monomers therefore preferably have a low Hansen parameter distance (HSP distance) Ra

The smaller the distance Ra between glass particles and monomer, the better they can be mixed with each other and the smaller the exponent q can be chosen in the Andreassen equation without adversely affecting the flowability of the paste or dispersion. It has proven to be particularly advantageous if the squared distance R _a ² of the Hansen parameters of the glass particles and the monomers

is less than 200 MPa, preferably less than 150 MPa and particularly preferably less than 100 MPa.

The Hansen parameters of glass particles and monomers can be adjusted by the glass composition and/or by the choice of monomers. The polymerization reaction can be initiated thermally or by exposure to electromagnetic radiation, preferably in the UV-VIS range. The monomer represents a binder which, after polymerization, forms a polymeric matrix for the glass particles and thus initially stabilizes the printed body. This polymeric matrix is subsequently removed from the body by burning, the glass particles are connected to one another through a sintering process, so that the resulting molded body has a high mechanical stability. One embodiment of the invention provides that the monomer has an acrylic group as at least one polymerizable group. The monomer can therefore also be referred to as acrylate. The acrylate can be monofunctional or have several acrylic groups. According to one embodiment, the preparation contains as a monomer an acrylate or vinyl-functionalized molecule, for example correspondingly functional silsesquioxanes or (methyl)siloxanes. The following monomers and their mixtures are particularly suitable as acrylates: hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), hexanediol diacrylate (HDDA), acrylolymormorpholine (ACMO), pentaerythriol tetraacrylate (PPTTA), trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA), tetraethylene glycol diacrylate (TEGDA), polyethylene glycol diarylate ( PEGDA), pentaerythritol triaacrylate, trimethylolpropane ethoxylate triacrylate, ditrimethylolpropane tetraacrylate, bisphenol A ethoxylate (1 EO/phenol) diacrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate and/or poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate.

According to another embodiment, the monomer has an epoxy function or an episulfide function as a polymerizable group. on.

According to one embodiment, a monomer, in particular an acrylate, is used whose Hansen parameters 5D are in the range from 15.5 to 17.5 MPa, 5p in the range from 10.5 to 11.5 MPa and 5H in the range from 9.5 to 10.5 MPa.

In addition to the monomer, the dispersing phase can contain additional solvents. According to one embodiment, the preparation contains a solvent, the solvent being selected such that the squared distance R _a ² of the Hansen parameters of the glass particles and the solvent molecules

is less than 200 MPa, preferably less than 150 MPa and particularly preferably less than 100 MPa. It is advantageous to use at least one solvent selected from the group containing the elements acetone, acetonitrile, anisole and n-butyl acetate. Diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, dimethyl sulfoxide, methyl ethyl ketone, 2-phenoxyethanol, propylene glycol monoethyl acetate, γ-valerol actone, 2-propanol, diethyl phthalate and/or polypropylene glycol highlighted. Alternatively, appropriate mixtures can also be used.

The optical, thermal or mechanical properties of the body printed with the paste as well as the Hansen parameters of the glass particles can be adjusted via the respective glass composition of the particles in the paste. According to one embodiment, the paste comprises a borosilicate glass, an alkali borosilicate glass, a barium glass or a soda lime glass. Table 1 shows examples of the glass compositions based on exemplary embodiments 1 to 6.

Table 1: Glass compositions of some exemplary embodiments

The inventors have discovered that the q value can be influenced by the shape of the glass particles or their aspect ratio and thus the maximum filling level of a flowable paste can be increased. It has proven to be advantageous here if the glass particles are predominantly non-spherical in the form of flakes or scales. In particular, the glass particles have surfaces created by glass breakage as a result of a grinding process, in particular as a result of. Dry and/or wet grinding processes. According to one embodiment, the glass particles are shard-shaped.

The shape of particles can be described using roundness or circularity. These can be determined using optical image analysis of a sample image. For this purpose, a sufficiently large sample with more than 10,000 particles is measured by analyzing a corresponding image, for example a microscope, SEM or camera image, using dynamic image analysis. Roundness and circularity are determined using two-dimensional projections of the particles. For technical reasons, the resolution is limited to particles of at least 30 pm. Choosing a sufficiently large sample ensures that all conceivable particle orientations are captured.

The glass particles have an average, cumulative particle shape related to the particle volume, the roundness of which is in the range from 0.3 to 0.9, preferably in the range from 0.4 to 0.8 and particularly preferably in the range from 0. 55 to 0.75. The roundness of a particle is calculated from the ratio of the largest diameter or cross section to the smallest diameter or cross section of the measured particle.

Alternatively or additionally, the glass particles have a circularity in the range from 0.6 to 0.95, preferably 0.66 to 0.87 and particularly preferably 0.7 to 0.85. The circularity refers to the ratio of the cross-sectional area of a particle to its circumference.

Particles with a roundness < 0.3 or a circularity < 0.6 are fibrous, while particles with a roundness > 0.9 or a circularity > 0.95 are almost perfect spheres. The particles of the two embodiments described above are shard-shaped particles. The shard-shaped particles can be obtained by crushing a corresponding glass in a top-down grinding process. The shard shape of the particles is retained even with finer ground particles. It is therefore possible to transfer the specific limits of particle shape to finer powders in the pm and sub-pm range.

The invention further relates to a shaped body, produced or producible by a 3D printing process with the preparation according to the invention. One embodiment of the manufacturing process provides that the preparation is converted into a three-dimensional structure using a 3D printer in a first step. To stabilize the structure, the monomer is polymerized. This can, for example, be radical or cationic and initiated thermally or by the action of electromagnetic radiation, especially in the UV-VIS range. The polymeric material is burned out of the body thus obtained and the body freed from the binder is subsequently sintered.

Fig. 1 shows the schematic representation of an exemplary embodiment of a preparation in the form of a printing paste 1. The printing paste 1 has a continuous phase 3 and glass particles 200, 201, 202 dispersed therein. The dispersant 3 contains monomers which form a photo-induced or thermally induced polymerization reaction of a polymer. In the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the dispersion medium 3 contains a monomer with at least one acrylic function and additionally a solvent. The monomer and solvent are selected so that they are easily miscible and have similar Hansen parameters. The dispersed glass particles comprise a multi-component glass and have a shard-like shape. The glass particles 200, 201, 202 were obtained by a top-down grinding process of glass frits and have a particle size distribution, whereby the cumulative particle size distribution of the fraction Qsreai corresponds to the ideal cumulative Andreassen distribution function Qs-Andreassen

a square distance 5 ²

of less than 0.03. The distribution coefficient q of the Andreassen equation is in the range between 0.2 and 0.5. In order to obtain the particle size distribution described above, a glass particle mixture with different particle size fractions is used. The mixing ratio is adjusted so that the deviation from the ideal Andreassen equation selected above is achieved. In the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 1, three different glass powders 200, 201, 202, each with different particle size distributions, were mixed. In the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the glass powder has a maximum grain size d99 of less than 500 pm, preferably less than 200 pm or even less than 100 pm. This enables high resolution when using the glass paste in 3D printing.

2 shows the particle size distribution 5 of a glass powder as a comparative example and the particle size distribution according to the Andreassen equation 4. Based on Fig. 2 it is clear that there are sometimes considerable deviations between the real particle size distribution 5 of the comparative example and the Andreassen particle size distribution 4. This is particularly the case with very small and large particle sizes. The comparison example has a square distance 5 ² of more than 0.03.

3 shows the particle size distribution 50 of an exemplary embodiment and the corresponding Andreassen distribution 4. The Andreassen equation has a slope value q of 0.26. The glass powder of the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 3 was mixed from three different glass powders with different particle size distributions. These were mixed in such a way that the mixture distribution corresponded as closely as possible to the Andreassen distribution. The optimal mixing ratio for this is determined using calculation tools, such as EMMA. As a result of this mixture, the glass powder has a particle size distribution 50 that only deviates slightly from the Andreassen distribution 4. 4 to 6 show the particle size distributions 51, 52, 53 of the individual glass powder mixtures from which the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 3 was mixed. The mixture has 27% by volume of glass particles with a particle distribution of 53, 10% by volume of the mixture with the Particle size distribution 52 and 63% by volume of the mixture with the particle size distribution 51.

Fig. 7 shows a further exemplary embodiment of a glass powder mixture. The particle size distribution 54 of the glass powder mixture also shows only slight deviations from a particle size distribution 4 according to the Andreassen distribution. In this example, the Andreassen distribution 4 has a q-value of 0.3. The powder mixture shown in FIG. 7 was adapted to the calculated particle size distribution shown in Table 2 by mixing three different powder mixtures:

Table 2: calculated particle size distribution

The maximum particle size is 8.1 pm.

8 shows the particle size distribution 55 of a powder mixture of a further exemplary embodiment. The particle size distribution 55 was obtained by mixing three different glass powders with different particle size distributions. The individual powders were mixed in such a way that the particle size distribution 55 of the mixture was as close as possible to the Andreassen distribution 4. For this purpose, the glass powders were mixed so that the mixture had the calculated particle size distribution shown in Table 3.

Table 3: Calculated particle size distribution

In this example, the Andreassen distribution 4 has a q value of 0.3, the maximum particle size is 8.2 pm. Fig. 9 illustrates the influence of the particle size distribution of the glass powder on the rheological properties of the corresponding printing paste. 9 shows the relationship between viscosity and shear rate of a comparative example 6 and an exemplary embodiment 7. Both pastes have a filling level of 40% by volume. Both exemplary embodiments contain an epoxide as a monomer. Comparative example 6 has a conventional glass powder with an average particle size dso of 6 pm, the particle size distribution not corresponding to the Andreassen distribution. In contrast, exemplary embodiment 7 contains a glass powder mixture which was mixed from three different glass powders with different particle size distributions. The glass powder mixture has 55% by volume of a glass powder with a particle size distribution of dso = 6 pm, 10% by volume of a glass powder with a particle size distribution of dso = 1.2 pm and 35% by volume of a glass powder with a particle size distribution dso = 0.14 pm. This composition was determined using an EMMA calculation tool and fitted to an Andreassen distribution with a q-value of 0.25. The squared distance 5 ² to the Andreassen equation is less than 0.03.

From Fig. 9 it is clear that by using a glass particle mixture whose particle size distribution essentially corresponds to the Andreassen distribution or is close to it, printing pastes with comparatively low viscosities and rheological properties that are advantageous for the printing process can be obtained even at high filling levels. Mixing different grain fractions based on Andreassen's law leads to a noticeable reduction in viscosity with a comparable filler content.

Surprisingly, despite a relatively high proportion of very small particles, i.e. a high fineness content, a corresponding paste has no, or only to a small extent, strong interactions between the individual particles. Rather, a relatively high proportion of particles with a particle size in the sub-pm range is necessary for the desired rheological properties. In the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 9, this proportion is 30 to 40% by volume. Fig. 10 shows the determination of the roundness (a)) and the circularity (b)). The particle shape of particles can be described using “roundness” or circularity. This can be determined using optical image analysis, for example using camera analysis, for example on microscope or SEM images. For this purpose, the sample of measured particles must be as large as possible. A sample is preferably carried out on more than 10,000 particles. In practice, these analyzes are carried out using dynamic image analysis, as this method can be used to analyze a complete particle collective with several 100,000 particles. The resolution of this method is limited to particles with a size of at least 30 pm.

Fig. 11 shows the SEM image of a section of a glass powder mixture of an exemplary embodiment. The individual glass particles have a shard-like shape. This shape results from the manufacturing process of the particles via a top-down grinding process. Here, a glass frit is crushed using grinding processes. On the sample shown in FIG. 11, the particle shape was determined via roundness and circularity. Table 4 shows the results.

Table 4: Determined particle shape

Glass powder with particle shapes whose roundness is 0.3 to 0.9, preferably 0.4 to 0.8 and particularly preferably 0.55 to 0.75 and / or whose circularity is 0.6 to 0.95, preferably 0.66 to 0.87 and particularly preferably 0.7 to 0.85 have proven to be advantageous.

12 shows SEM images of a glass powder of a further exemplary embodiment. Based on the enlargement of the section 8, it becomes clear that the shape of the shards remains the same even when the particles are ground more finely preserved. This means that even finer powders with particle sizes in the gm range and sub-gm range can have the particle shape limits described above.
