Ultrasonic Characterization and Assessment of Bonding between Adjacent Structures in Polymeric Additive Manufacturing

Non-homogeneous, layered structures (Figure 1 & 2) were observed in the production of parts by polymeric additive manufacturing. Previous work demonstrated that these materials do not fit the isotropic material model and suggested that they may be better fitted to a monoclinic model since complimentary shear velocity measurements gave differing results [1]. This work measures the full set of monoclinic elastic constants using ultrasonic velocities and mechanical testing as well as the directional properties of the ultrasonic dispersion and attenuation. Determining the elastic constants from mechanical testing and ultrasonic measurements gives significantly different results for this material which indicates dispersion caused by the visco-elastic nature of the material, the periodic microstructure, and the bond quality between adjacent voxels. The visco-elastic properties of the material was examined by DMA testing, while the bond quality was determined with double cantilever beam samples
