Dynamic Mechanical Behavior of Hierarchical Resin Honeycomb by 3D Printing

In this paper, surface projection micron stereo-lithography technology (P mu SL) by 3D printing was used to prepare two resin honeycomb materials with different levels, and the mechanical behavior of these materials was studied. The quasi-static compression experiment and the dynamic compression experiment were carried out on the samples using the in situ micro-compression testing machine and the Split Hopkinson bar (SHPB) experimental equipment. The stress-strain curves of these materials at different strain rates were obtained, and the energy absorption characteristic of materials with two different levels were analyzed. This article reveals that the collapse strength and energy absorption properties of the materials are related to the hierarchical level of honeycomb. Multi-level hierarchical honeycomb (MHH) has higher collapse strength and better energy absorption properties than single-level hierarchical honeycomb (SHH). It turned out that increasing the hierarchical level of honeycomb could improve the mechanical properties of the materials. In the future development of products, the mechanical properties of hierarchical material by 3D printing can be further optimized through changing the level of the fractal structure.
