Experimental study of the shape memory polymer composite is carried out as a part of scientific and technological work aimed at development of the new promising reflectors for space antenna. The studied material consists of three-layered carbon biaxial fabric St 12073 impregnated with a polyurethane-based Diaplex MP5510 polymer matrix. This material is intended for manufacturing a frame used in the construction of a precise composite reflector of space antenna. When opening the reflector to the transport position, the rim activated by heating recovers a previously specified shape thus increasing the rigidity of the reflector at the periphery and enhancing the accuracy of the reflecting surface. To study the functional and mechanical properties of the rim material in manufacturing and operating conditions, experimental tests were carried out on the samples with different schemes of reinforcement: [03], [0/±60] and [0/±45]. The main goal of the study is to determine the degree and rate of the shape recovery, reinforcement angles, deformation rate and exposure time in the strained state. The developed test program included several stages. At the first stages, tests were carried out for fixing and restoring the shape upon three-point bending of flat samples at a strain rate of 1, 5, and 10 mm/sec and exposure of the specimens in deformed state for 24, 48, and 96 h. According to the results the material with the reinforcement angles [03] was accepted as optimal for the rim design, as it has maximal shape recovery parameters. For the selected material at the final stage of the study, the elastic modulus and tensile strength were determined at operating temperatures –50, +20, and +60°C. The tests showed that the studied polymer composite material has the desired shape memory properties and is promising for the rim manufacturing provided the heat insulation during operation.

The work presented here describes a paradigm for the design of materials for additive manufacturing platforms based on taking advantage of unique physical properties imparted upon the material by the fabrication process. We sought to further investigate past work with binary shape memory polymer blends, which indicated that phase texturization caused by the fused filament fabrication (FFF) process enhanced shape memory properties. In this work, two multi-constituent shape memory polymer systems were developed where the miscibility parameter was the guide in material selection. A comparison with injection molded specimens was also carried out to further investigate the ability of the FFF process to enable enhanced shape memory characteristics as compared to other manufacturing methods. It was found that blend combinations with more closely matching miscibility parameters were more apt at yielding reliable shape memory polymer systems. However, when miscibility parameters differed, a pathway towards the creation of shape memory polymer systems capable of maintaining more than one temporary shape at a time was potentially realized. Additional aspects related to impact modifying of rigid thermoplastics as well as thermomechanical processing on induced crystallinity are also explored. Overall, this work serves as another example in the advancement of additive manufacturing via materials development.

3D Printed

Poly(lactic acid) is not only one of the most often used materials for 3D printing via fused deposition modeling (FDM), but also a shape-memory polymer. This means that objects printed from PLA can, to a certain extent, be deformed and regenerate their original shape automatically when they are heated to a moderate temperature of about 60–100 °C. It is important to note that pure PLA cannot restore broken bonds, so that it is necessary to find structures which can take up large forces by deformation without full breaks. Here we report on the continuation of previous tests on 3D-printed cubes with different infill patterns and degrees, now investigating the influence of the orientation of the applied pressure on the recovery properties. We find that for the applied gyroid pattern, indentation on the front parallel to the layers gives the worst recovery due to nearly full layer separation, while indentation on the front perpendicular to the layers or diagonal gives significantly better results. Pressing from the top, either diagonal or parallel to an edge, interestingly leads to a different residual strain than pressing from front, with indentation on top always firstly leading to an expansion towards the indenter after the first few quasi-static load tests. To quantitatively evaluate these results, new measures are suggested which could be adopted by other groups working on shape-memory polymers.
