Novel Liquid Crystal Monomers for Stereolithography: Reaction Rates and Photopolymerization Conversion
Liquid crystal (LC) monomers are a novel type of resin for stereolithography that result in polymers having unique physical and mechanical properties. These monomers consist of rigid central cores connected to acrylate functional groups by short aliphatic chains. Because of the rigid-rod structure of the monomer the cross-linked polymer networks formed have high glass transition temperatures (T...
متن کاملA Novel Projection based Electro-Stereolithography (PES) Process for Composite Printing
Most current additive manufacturing processes can only process one material in one build. Few of them are able to fabricate multiple materials and composites, with limited choices of materials. In this research, we propose a novel Projection based Electro-Stereolithography (PES) process, which is able to fabricate composites with high resolution and fast speed, and a big range of material choic...
متن کاملComputational Modeling of Stereolithography
— Stereolithography (STL) is an additive manufacturing process which employs an ultraviolet curable photopolymer resin to form an object layer by layer. Due to the complicated multi-physical nature of the process, the major challenge that arises is the accuracy of the finished parts. The aim of the student-research project was to gain insight into the main governing effects of STL and to model ...
متن کاملFast Recoating Methods for the Projection-based Stereolithography Process in Micro- and Macro-Scales
The purpose of this paper is to present a recoating method for the development of a direct digital manufacturing (DDM) process that can be an order of magnitude faster than other currently available DDM processes. In the mask-image-projection-based Stereolithography (MIP-SL) process, projection light controlled by a Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) can quickly cure liquid photopolymer resin in ...
متن کاملProjection micro-stereolithography using digital micro-mirror dynamic mask
We present in this paper the development of a high-resolution projection micro-stereolithography (P SL) process by using the Digital Micromirror Device (DMDTM, Texas Instruments) as a dynamic mask. This unique technology provides a parallel fabrication of complex three-dimensional (3D) microstructures used for micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS). Based on the understanding of underlying mec...
