Abstract

Sealing components having complex shapes and smooth surfaces are may be fabricated using coreactive three-dimensional printing. More specifically the invention relates to chemically resistant sealing components and methods of making said sealing components using three-dimensional printing, and that may be used in vehicle applications.

Claims (24)

1. A method of making a chemically resistant sealing component, comprising:

depositing successive layers of a coreactive composition comprising a sulfur-containing prepolymer to form the chemically resistant sealing component, wherein the successive layers of the coreactive composition are deposited in a predetermined shape using three-dimensional printing by extruding the coreactive composition through a nozzle onto a substrate; and

curing the deposited coreactive composition to provide the chemically resistant sealing component;

wherein the chemically resistant sealing component exhibits a glass transition temperature T g of less than −20° C., determined by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) using a dynamic mechanical analyzer with a frequency of 1 Hz, an amplitude of 20 microns, and a temperature ramp of −80° C. to 160° C., with the T g identified as a peak of the tan δ curve; and

wherein at least one of the deposited successive layers is deposited adjoining one or more previously deposited layers and wherein the depositing of successive layers of the coreactive composition and the curing of the deposited coreactive composition causes adjoining layers of the successively deposited layers to at least one of chemically bond and physically bond.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein,

wherein the nozzle comprises a tip;

a deposited layer is characterized by a first layer thickness when the distance between the substrate and the nozzle tip is greater than the first layer thickness;

depositing further comprises positioning the nozzle tip at a distance from the substrate that is less than the first layer thickness and extruding the coreactive composition through the nozzle; and

positioning the nozzle at a distance from the substrate that is less than the first layer thickness and extruding the coreactive composition through the nozzle forms a deposited layer having a second layer thickness, wherein the second layer thickness is less than the first layer thickness.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the nozzle tip further comprises a component configured to smooth a deposited layer.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the component is configured to reduce the average 2 Ra waviness of a surface of the chemically resistant sealing component to less than 10% the average waviness wavelength, as determined using optical profilometry;

wherein the surface of the chemically resistant sealing component refers to a surface facing the nozzle during depositing.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the average 2 Ra waviness of surface of the chemically resistant sealing component is less than 200 μm.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein during the deposition the coreactive composition has a temperature less than 50° C.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the curing comprises allowing the deposited coreactive composition to cure at a temperature less than 30° C.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the coreactive composition comprises from 10 wt % to 80 wt % filler, wherein wt % is based on the total weight of the coreactive composition.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein,

the coreactive composition comprises from 3 vol % to 70 vol % filler; and vol % is based on the total volume of the coreactive composition.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the coreactive composition has a specific gravity less than 1.3.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the chemically resistant sealing component exhibits less than 25 vol % swell following immersion in the chemical for 7 days at 70° C.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the chemically resistant sealing component exhibits less than 10 vol % swell following immersion in a 3% NaCl aqueous solution for 7 days at 70° C.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein a fracture energy of the chemically resistant sealing component is substantially the same as a fracture energy of an individually deposited layer of coreactive composition.

14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the chemically resistant sealing component is an aerospace sealing component configured to seal adjoining surfaces on an aerospace vehicle.
