Накратко на български

Композитни материали, подсилени с графен, се изследват за приложение в 3D принтирането. Това помага за намаляване на разхода на ресурси, енергията и вредните емисии при производството на стоки.

GRAPHENE REINFORCE COMPOSITES FOR 3D PRINTING TECHNOLOGY

3D printing is a process for creating 3 dimensional physical objects from a 3D computer digital design, with the potential to significantly reduce resource and energy demands as well as process-related CO2 emissions. In this sense, Pike Research lists it as one of the Five Disruptive Cleantech Innovations which are technologies that enable fundamental large-scale change. It is expected to deliver dramatic ecological benefits to future generations since it allows the production of goods much closer to the consumer, decreasing significantly energy consumption and greenhouse emissions due to transportation. Likewise, it is considered as a new industrial revolution due to its potential of democratizing manufacturing processes through online-distributed blueprints and localized production. Despite 3D printing is still at an early stage, in a recent report the global market potential of 3DP by 2025 is estimated at 230–550 billion US $. Since in 1986 the first 3D printer was created by Charles Hull, 3D printing technology has undergone constant development becoming one of the most used methods for developing prototypes. The range of applications is huge, finding multiple sectors where 3DP is used, such as: medical and dental field, aerospace, automotive, jewelry, art, design, sculpture, architecture, fashion, food, but prototyping is still today’s largest application. European Union has established the graphene research as a priority in R&D. Its recognition as one of the Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) ensures an investment of € 1000 million for the next years (Graphene FET Flagship). Also, Graphene Technologies and Stratasys announced a partnership to co-develop graphene-enhanced 3D-printing materials. In this sense, recent literature shows several works dealing with the development of prototypes using composites as printing materials, however only few of them explore the use of graphene, therefore new original research involving graphene-nanocomposites materials in 3D printing is necessary. The overall objectives are sumarized as follow: 1. Designing novel strategies for the integration of graphene layers into several low melting point polymers in order to improve their conductivity and mechanical reinforcement. 2. Determining the structural, morphological, superficial and electrochemical properties of the new engineered materials in order to make a rational selection before the integration stage. 3. Implementing the novel materials in 3D printing for the development of real prototypes through two different 3D printing technologies: FDM and Poly Jet.

Цел на проекта

Three dimensional printing technology is also known as rapid prototyping technology and it can be grouped within additive manufacturing techniques. This technology is based on the creation of a 3D object starting from a digital model.In recent years, 3D technology has become one of the most used methods in the development of prototypes since it allows the design of relatively complicated 3D geometries with new materials, like composites. 3D-PRINTGRAPH will be focused on improving structuctural and conductive properties of the current materials used in 3D printing technologies today. To achieve this goal, layered graphene will be integrated with the most available low melting point polymers in order to obtain a new material able to be employed in 3D printing technologies. The inter / multidisciplinary approach proposed in the 3D-PRINTGRAPH project will allow the researcher acquiring new skills in Key Enabling Technologies such as advanced graphene materials and 3D printing technology. Moreover, three different secondments in the ASCAMM Technological Center, Hewlett Packard and FAB LAB Barcelona will complement researcher's traininggiving her a multisectoral point of view and a clear idea of transfer of knowledge activities in the field of printing materials. Therefore, planned research and training activities in the 3D-PRINTGRAPH project will reinforce a position of professional maturity in research and will provide the researcher new career perspectives.
