Abstract

Compared to thermoplastics, continuous fiber thermosets offer the potential for diverse reaction chemistry, improved thermo-mechanical properties, and new processing routes. In this work, flat preforms of additively deposited reactive resin infused fiber tows (ADRRIFT) are combined with frontally polymerizable gels of dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) to autonomously produce, upon initiation of frontal polymerization (FP), cured composites with controlled curvature. These morphogenic composites provide a low initiation energy (10–20 J) and rapid (70cm2/min) method to form 3D shaped composites. Using an analytical model, 2D printed patterns of continuous carbon fiber tows are designed to produce shapes with an apparent Gaussian curvature that is positive (parabolic dish), zero (cone), and negative (saddle). To achieve the strain needed for desired shapes, these morphogenic composites have low fiber volume fraction (FVF), 3%–9%. However, we also demonstrate in this work that the shaped morphogenic composites can serve as rapid tooling for DCPD infused laminates with higher FVF (30%–42%) and mechanical stiffness. Due to the inherent surface chemistry, cured laminates easily separate from the shaped tooling without additional release agents. Together these approaches provide rapid manufacturing of shaped composites with a range of FVF and properties for application constrained in transportation volume and energy expenditure.

通过增材制造和正面聚合快速成形可编程成形成型复合材料
与热塑性塑料相比,连续纤维热固性材料提供了多种反应化学、改进的热机械性能和新的加工路线的潜力。在这项工作中,添加剂沉积的反应性树脂注入纤维束(ADRRIFT)的平面预成型物与二环戊二烯(DCPD)的正面可聚合凝胶相结合,在正面聚合(FP)开始时自主生产具有可控曲率的固化复合材料。这些形态发生复合材料提供了低起始能(≈10-20 J)和快速(≈70cm2/min)的方法来形成三维形状的复合材料。使用解析模型,设计连续碳纤维束的二维打印图案,以产生具有明显高斯曲率的形状,即正(抛物面),零(锥形)和负(鞍形)。为了获得所需形状所需的应变,这些形态发生复合材料具有低纤维体积分数(FVF),为3%-9%。然而,我们在这项工作中也证明了形状形成的复合材料可以作为具有更高FVF(30%-42%)和机械刚度的DCPD注入层压板的快速工具。由于固有的表面化学,固化的层压板很容易从成型的模具中分离出来,而不需要额外的脱模剂。这些方法共同提供了快速制造具有一系列FVF和性能的异形复合材料,适用于运输体积和能源消耗受限的应用。

期刊介绍: Additive Manufacturing stands as a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to delivering high-quality research papers and reviews in the field of additive manufacturing, serving both academia and industry leaders. The journal's objective is to recognize the innovative essence of additive manufacturing and its diverse applications, providing a comprehensive overview of current developments and future prospects. The transformative potential of additive manufacturing technologies in product design and manufacturing is poised to disrupt traditional approaches. In response to this paradigm shift, a distinctive and comprehensive publication outlet was essential. Additive Manufacturing fulfills this need, offering a platform for engineers, materials scientists, and practitioners across academia and various industries to document and share innovations in these evolving technologies.
