摘要

Purpose - The paper's aim is to explore a method using light absorption for improving manufacturing of complex, three-dimensional (3D) micro-parts with a previously developed dynamic mask projection microstereolithography (MSL) system. A common issue with stereolithography systems and especially important in MSL is uncontrolled penetration of the ultraviolet light source into the photocrosslinkable resin when fabricating down-facing surfaces. To accurately fabricate complex 3D parts with down-facing surfaces, a chemical light absorber, Tinuvin 327 was mixed in different concentrations into an acrylate-based photocurable resin, and the solutions were tested for cure depths and successful micro-part fabrication. Design/methodology/approach - Tinuvin 327 was selected as the light absorber based on its high absorption characteristics (~0.4) at 365 nm (the filtered light wavelength used in the MSL system). Four concentrations of Tinuvin 327 in resin were used (0.00, 0.05, 0.10, and 0.15 percent (w/w)), and cure depth experiments were performed. To investigate the effects of different concentrations of Tinuvin 327 on complex 3D microstructure fabrication, several microstructures with overhanging features such as a fan and spring were fabricated. Findings - Results showed that higher concentrations of Tinuvin 327 reduced penetration depths and thus cure depths. For the resinwith 0.15 percent (w/w) of the Tinuvin 327, a cure depth of ~30μm was achieved as compared to ~200μm without the light absorber. The four resin solutions were used to fabricate complex 3D microstructures, and different concentrations of Tinuvin 327 at a given irradiance and exposure energy were required for successful fabrication depending on the geometry of the micro-part (concentrations of 0.05 and 0.1 percent (w/w) provided the most accurate builds for the fan and spring, respectively). Research limitations/implications - Although two different concentrations of light absorber in solution were required to demonstrate successful fabrication for two different micro-part geometries (a fan and spring), the experiments were performed using a single irradiance and exposure energy. A single solution with the light absorber could have possibly been used to fabricate these micro-parts by varying irradiance and/or exposure energy, although the effects of varying these parameters on geometric accuracy, mechanical strength, overall manufacturing time, and other variables were not explored. Originality/value - This work systematically investigated 3D microstructure fabrication using different concentrations of a light absorber in solution, and demonstrated that different light absorption characteristics were required for different down-facing micro-features.
