- Modification of photosensitive resin with 0D and 2D nanoparticles towards printing scalability(Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, 2024-12-05) Meza Diarte, Salvador Alejandro; Sustaita Narváez, Alan Osiris; Rodríguez Hernández, Gerardo; Segura Cárdenas, Emmanuel; Melo Máximo, Dulce Viridiana; School of Engineering and Sciences; Campus Monterrey; Iturbe Ek, JackelineComposite materials, recognized for their ability to synergize the properties of multiple constituents, have become indispensable in modern engineering and manufacturing. Polymer composites, a prominent category within this field, are particularly valued for their lightweight, cost-effective nature, and ease of processability. This study investigates the integration of composite materials with vat polymerization 3D printing, focusing on the development of advanced polymer-based nanocomposites with tailored functional properties, by modifying commercially available photosensitive resins through ultrasonic dispersion of 0D and 2D nanoparticles: silicon dioxide (SiO2) and organo-modified clay Cloisite 30B (C30B), respectively. The SiO2 nanoparticles were functionalized with alkyl silane groups CTMS and OTS to achieve hydrophobicity. Therefore, this work aims to enhance the hydrophobic and flame-resistant characteristics of 3D printed components. A practical experimental methodology for the resin modification by ultrasonic dispersion was developed. The incorporation of functionalized SiO2 achieved intrinsically hydrophobic 3D printed specimens, with contact angle of up to 133°. The incorporation of C30B increased significantly mechanical properties with respect to neat resin, obtaining an increase of 37% in Young’s modulus, 39% in elongation, and 0.95 MPa. It also increased combustion temperature by 12 °C in the formulation with 5% clay concentration. XRD and TEM results confirm a clay exfoliation was achieved after polymerization, and the mechanism was proposed. A Jacob’s cure depth working curve was developed for both modifications to determine their printing parameters as the first step towards printing scalability. UV-Vis analysis confirmed that both modifications preserved the printability of the resins, demonstrating the feasibility of fabricating high-performance nanocomposites using vat polymerization
