Abstract

The study of the influence of the temperature of polyethylene printing on the dimensional stability of samples obtained by the method of FDM printing has been carried out. It is shown that a change in the temperature of the nozzle from 200 to 260 °C leads to a decrease in the deviation from the plane by a factor of eight. In this case, the tensile strength remains practically unchanged, and the elongation increases by 30 %. It has been established by the methods of rheological and microstructural studies that the observed effect is associated with a change in the structure of polyethylene, which is initiated by an increased temperature of the printer's extruder head. It has been suggested that the likely reason for the change in the structure of polyethylene is a change in the course of the crystallization process due to partial thermal oxidative destruction of the polymer matrix in the extruder head of a 3D printer.
