THREE-DIMENSIONAL PRINTING WITH PIGMENT REACTANTS

This disclosure describes multi-fluid kits for three-dimensional printing, three-dimensional printing kits, and methods of making three-dimensional printed articles. In one example, a multi-fluid kit for three-dimensional printing can include a fusing agent, a first reactive agent, and a second reactive agent. The fusing agent can include water and a radiation absorber. The radiation absorber can absorb radiation energy and convert the radiation energy to heat. The first reactive agent can include water and a dissolved first pigment reactant. The second reactive agent can include water and a dissolved second pigment reactant. The second pigment reactant can be reactive with the first pigment reactant to form a water-insoluble pigment.

APPARATUS, METHOD AND SYSTEM TO TEMPORARILY HOLD A WORKPIECE DURING MANUFACTURING USING ADHESIVE ATTACHMENT
20220331919 · 2022-10-20 ·

A method and system temporarily holds a workpiece, most suitably an aero engine turbine blade element during manufacture. The workholding system includes a support body with a contoured body surface, complementary to a workpiece surface, formed of a transparent material to define a bonding zone. The support body is supported by a base to form a workpiece shuttle, and a bond station receives the workpiece shuttle. Complementary zero-point locating elements on the shuttle and station assure accurate positioning. The bond station further has workpiece locating elements configured to accurately position the workpiece on the shuttle in a predetermined position relative to the zero-point locating elements of the shuttle, thereby compensating for shuttle-to-shuttle variance. An adhesive, such as a UV curable adhesive, is applied to the bonding zone and cured by UV through the transparent material, thereby fixing the workpiece in the predetermined position.

A METHOD FOR PRODUCING JEWELRY FROM HUMAN MILK AND AN EPOXY RESIN
20230072398 · 2023-03-09 ·

A method for producing jewelry from human milk and an epoxy resin involving mixing human milk with a transparent epoxy resin, placing it in the mold and allowing it to harden, in which an epoxy resin and an amine hardener are used, wherein a quantity of cysteine and/or serine equal to at least 0.1 percent by weight of the milk is first added to human milk and the resulting mixture is introduced into the mixture of an epoxy resin with an amine hardener in an amount between 0.1 percent and 40 percent by volume of the mixture of an epoxy resin and a hardener.

Dark Colored Laser Transparent Composition and Molded Articles Made Therefrom
20230108870 · 2023-04-06 ·

Polyester polymer compositions are described containing a blend of coloring agents and optionally reinforcing fibers. The polyester polymer, for instance, can be polybutylene terephthalate. The polymer composition is particularly formulated in order to be substantially transparent at specific wavelengths of light. Consequently, the polyester polymer composition is well suited for use in laser transmission welding in which a laser beam passes through the polymer composition and forms a weld on an adjoining surface.

Method of making article with visual effect

Method of making a blow molded article from a preform including: a) providing a preform of a thermoplastic material having a plurality of effect structures each having an effect surface having a normal with an orientation, the preform having a body with one or more walls and an opening, wherein at least a portion of the one or more walls of the preform has a three-dimensional pattern of cavities and/or protrusions thereon; and b) blow molding the preform to form a blow molded article, wherein the step of blow molding the preform changes the orientation of the normal of at least some of the effect surfaces of the effect structures to create a visual effect in at least one wall of the blow molded article.

Multilayer polymer sheets

Multilayer polymer sheets are provided, as well as related methods, systems, and appliances.

Polyester film and preperation method thereof

A polyester-based film having excellent scratch resistance, durability, transparency, and visibility and a process for preparing the same. The polyester-based film comprises a base layer and a coating layer on at least one side of the base layer.
