  1. Roughness reduction and functional coating deposition on additive manufactured substrates with ultrasonic spraycoating Prof. dr. ir. Wim Deferme

  2. IMO - IMOMEC IMO IMOMEC

  3. The Organic Electronics Value-Chain • Valorization: • Innovativeclean-techregion • Scienceparks • Tech.Transfer Office

  4. Functional Materials Engineering Group Printing of functional inks and coatings Developing ink testing systems Activities FME Developing devices with printing techniques Testing of commercial inks or inks from industrial partners

  5. Motivation • Roughness • Porosity (absorption of the ink)

  6. Outline • Additive manufacturing – the problem • Ultrasonic spraycoating – the solution • PVDF + aceton + silica nanoparticles – the coating formulation: • Roughness reduction • Superhydrophobicity • Adhesion • What if … roughness is your wish? • Conclusion

  7. Problem Statement • Additive Manufacturing: • Low volumes, no serial production • Long production times • Manual post-processing • Complex structures are difficult to post-process Therefore: time-to-market and client-specific products and/or serial production are not competitive with standard production techniques Stereolithography (SLA) Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)

  8. Subtractive [1] Problem Statement – Zoom in on post-processing • Blasting • Sanding • Vapor smoothing • High surface roughness after AM (between 10 and 30um) • Post-treatment needed: • Beadblasting • Sandblasting Pressurizedatomisation Ultrasonicatomisation [1] Materialise, “3D Printing Service,” Materialise.

  10. Substrates • PA-12 (nylon) from Selective Laser Sintering

  11. Coating formulation 1) Polyvinylideenfluoride (PVDF) 2) Aceton 3) Silica nanoparticles Toachieve: Roughnessreduction + functionality (superhydrophobicity – easy to clean) • Pa < 2 µm • WCA > 150°

  12. Spraycoating parameters • Ink (wt%) and # layers: Amount of deposited material • Volume flow + Nozzle Speed: V% ink/Area/time • Hotplate temperature and Spraying height:Drytime

  13. Roughness reduction – first results 10,4 µm 6,9 µm 4,4 µm

  14. Addition of nanoparticles Influence on roughness of fraction nanoparticles 4,2 wt% PVDF and 0,8 wt% silica nanoparticles 3,9 µm 3,4 µm 2,5 µm 2,4µm 1,8 µm Industrial standard

  15. Superhydrophobicity – addition of nanoparticles

  16. Superhydrophobicity Influence on contact angle of fraction of nanoparticles 3,5wt% PVDF and 1,5wt% silica nanoparticles
