The present invention relates to the technical field of 3D printing, in particular in the form of the binder jetting process in which particles in a powder bed are adhesive-bonded by means of a printed adhesive to give a three-dimensional object. The particles here can be inorganic materials, e.g. sand or a metal powder, or polymeric particles, such as polymethacrylates or polyamides. To this end, polymethacrylates can by way of example take the form of suspension polymers known as bead polymers. In this context the present invention in particular relates to, as powders for 3D printing, suspension polymers which differ from the prior art in that they comprise a hard phase and an uncrosslinked soft phase.

The present invention relates to the technical field of 3D printing, especially in the form of the binder jetting method, in which particulate material in a powder bed is bonded by means of a printed adhesive to form a three-dimensional object. The particulate materials may be inorganic materials, for example sand or a metal powder, or particulate polymeric materials, for example polymethacrylates or polyamides. For this purpose, polymethacrylates may take the form, for example, of suspension polymers, called bead polymers. The present invention relates to the use of porous particles in the binder jetting process, in particular of porous suspension polymers. These powders for 3-D printing differ from the prior art in that the porosity results in a faster and better absorption of the printed binder by the powder particles. A great advantage of this procedure is additionally that a product with less warpage is formed and that the end product has a better surface appearance.

Provided is an adhesive composition suitable for producing a laminate. The composition contains specified amounts of (a) polyisobutyl methacrylate, isobutyl methacrylate or a mixture thereof, (b) butyl acrylate, (c) polybutyl acrylate, (d) a (meth)acrylate compound and (e) a silicon compound. These components may be in polymerizable form, in polymerized form or in a combination of polymerizable form and polymerized form.

The present invention relates to plastic molded bodies having two-dimensional or three-dimensional image structures produced in the interior through laser subsurface engraving. The plastic molded bodies are made of plastic materials which have a content of nanoscale metal oxides having particle sizes from 1 to 500 nm, both the plastic material and also the included metal oxide being transparent to the laser light used for producing the image structures. The plastic materials from which the molded bodies are manufactured particularly contain metal oxides having particle sizes from 5 to 100 nm at a content of 0.0001 to 0.1 weight-percent. Typical metal oxides are nanoscale indium-tin oxide or antimony-tin oxide.

Mixed oxide powder containing indium and tin, with a proportion of indium oxide of between 90 and 98 wt. % and a BET surface area of 40 to 120 m/g, which is in the form of aggregates having an average circumference of less than 500 nm, consists of at least 95% of an indium oxide phase and displays an oxygen content that is lower than the content that theoretically results from In2O3 and SnO2. It is produced by mixing a solution of an indium compound with a solution of a tin compound, atomising this mixture of solutions, pyrolysing the atomised mixture of solutions in a first zone of a reactor and in a second zone of the reactor, following pyrolysis, adding reducing gases to the pyrolysed mixture at one or more points in a quantity such that overall a reducing atmosphere is established in this second zone, and separating the resulting solid from the waste gases in a further, third zone, in which a reducing atmosphere likewise still prevails. It can be used for the production of transparent, electroconductive paints and coatings.
