Quasicrystal–polymer composites for selective laser sintering technology
Graphical abstract Display Omitted Highlights ► Quasicrystal–polymer composite was adapted for selective laser sintering (SLS). ► SLS processed parts show reduced friction and improved wear resistance. ► The parts are leak-tight allowing their direct use in fluidic applications. ► Quasicrystal–polymer composite extends the materials choice compatible with the SLS.
Abstract Selective laser sintering (SLS) process is a layered manufacturing technique used for building functional parts from 3D computer-aided design. Materials compatible with SLS usually consist of polymer-based composites reinforced by metal or ceramic particles. We have investigated a new composite powder compatible with the SLS technology and containing AlCuFeB quasicrystalline filler particles. The processed parts show reduced friction and improved wear resistance compared to other composites used in SLS technology. In addition, the functional parts contain almost no porosity and are leak-tight allowing their direct use in many fluidic applications.
