Investigation of the Various Binders’ Effect on the Lime Binder Carbonate Hardening Process for its Use in Additive Technologies

Abstract

The obtaining carbonized material experimental studies’ results based on lime carbonate systems by 3D inkjet printing are presented. Some types of materials used as binders for inorganic binders have been studied. An effective method of hardening the model obtained in the 3D printing process is determined. The physical and mechanical characteristics of the prototypes hardened in the carbon dioxide medium or high concentration are determined. It was found that artificial carbonization of the samples obtained on various types of binders for 90 min contributes to the formation of a fairly strong structure of insoluble calcium carbonate, the hydrated lime carbonation product, and the carbonization degree depends on the type of binder and its mass fraction in the solution. The most effective types of binders were selected and the optimal content of the studied binders in the solution was determined.
