This article discusses the potential use of thermoplastic polymers in photopolymer compositions for SLA and DLP. The diffusion and solubility of uncured systems based on tert-butyl acrylate (tBA) and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers (EVA) or low-density polyethylene (LDPE) were studied. The phase diagrams, interdiffusion and self-diffusion coefficients were obtained to analyze the compatibility and performance characteristics of the materials.
The possibility of using thermoplastic polymers in photopolymer compositions for SLA and DLP is discussed in this article. The diffusion and mutual solubility of uncured systems based on tert-butyl acrylate (tBA) and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers (EVA) or low-density polyethylene (LDPE) were studied. The solubility and diffusion of tBA with EVA containing 7, 20, and 40 wt.% vinyl acetate (VA) and with LDPE in the temperature range 20-75 degrees C were studied by optical micro-interferometry method. Phase diagrams of LDPE-tBA, EVA-7-tBA, and EVA-20-tBA systems were obtained. It is shown that the compositions are characterized by the phase-state diagrams of amorphous separation with the upper critical solution temperature (UCST). The concentration dependences of the interdiffusion coefficients as well as dependences of the self-diffusion coefficients on VA content and on temperature were plotted. The activation energy of self-diffusion of EVA and LDPE was calculated. It was shown that the most promising tBA modifier is EVA-40, which is completely soluble at all studied temperature ranges. The obtained data on the mixing of the initial components is valuable for further studies of the processes of structure formation during photocuring of compositions, regulation of the phase structure and, as a consequence, the performance characteristics of the 3D printable materials.
