Abstract
A production of polymer material realized at low energy and with rapid curing process for providing advantages mentioned in the specification. The polymer material is aimed to be used as a resin material for three-dimensional (3D) printers and as a filling substance to be added into another material for increasing hardness, as a nano/micro-particle production material, as an ink for printing, and as a press, mold and surface coating material.
Claims8
A production method of a polymer material having rapidly curing characteristic by an effect of an ultraviolet (UV) ray without needing a high-energy light source and having a low toxicity value, comprising the following steps of:
- i. dissolving photo-initiator lithium phenyl-2,4,6-trimethylbenzoylphosphinate in water to obtain a water-lithium phenyl-2,4,6-trimethylbenzoylphosphinate solution,
- ii. adding monomer pentaerythritol triacrylate to the water-lithium phenyl-2,4,6-trimethylbenzoylphosphinate solution to obtain a photo-initiator-monomer solution,
- iii. adding triethanolamine and 1-vinyl-2 pyrrolidinone to the photo-initiator-monomer solution, wherein the triethanolamine functions as a co-initiator, and the 1-vinyl-2 pyrrolidinone functions as an accelerator,
- iv. applying curing processes of a polymer beginning solution in an ultraviolet radiation region.
