    摘要: The invention relates to an additive manufacturing process by extrusion for forming a three-dimensional part in an additive manufacturing machine having a build environment, the process comprising: i) providing a composition comprising at least one poly-aryl-ether-ketone (PAEK) having a melt viscosity from about 200 Pa·s to about 1500 Pa·s, according to ASTM D3835-16, measured at a temperature of 320° C. and at a shear rate of 100 s−1, by capillary rheology using a 1 mm diameter, 15 mm long die; ii) extruding the composition in the build environment at an extrusion temperature equal to 330° C. or less, to form an extruded part section; and, iii) cooling the extruded part section in the build environment. The invention also relates to a filament and its use in said additive manufacturing process and the corresponding object obtainable from said additive manufacturing process.

    摘要: The invention concerns an additive manufacturing process by extrusion for forming a three-dimensional part with an additive manufacturing machine comprising a nozzle, the process comprising:



    i) providing a pseudo-amorphous composition having a glass temperature Tg;
    ii) softening the composition at a softening temperature above Tg and below 300° C. to form a softened composition which is fluid enough to flow and, extruding the softened composition from the nozzle to form an extruded part section; and,
    iii) solidifying the extruded part section;


    wherein the composition is based on a homopolymer or a copolymer of poly-ether-ketone-ketone, consisting of: at least an isophthalic (I) repeating unit, having the formula:






    and, in the case of the copolymer, a terephthalic (T) repeating unit, having the formula:






    wherein the molar proportion of T units relative to the sum of the T and I units ranges from 0% to 45% or from 55% to 65%.
