Printing quality control of cement-based materials under flow and rest conditions

Résumé

Time-dependent rheological properties of cement-based materials have a significant impact on 3D printing processes, where multiple rheological requirements should be met. A proper high rate of structural build-up is recommended to ensure the buildability and stability of printed elements. However, the loss of workability may occur rapidly, resulting in a significant reduction in print quality. Workability and buildability requirements usually interfere due to the time-dependent rheological behavior of cement-based materials under flow and rest conditions. This research aims to highlight the effects of time-dependent behavior on the printability of cement-based materials. The coupling mechanisms of microstructure development at rest and under shearing conditions are discussed. A new thixotropy index is proposed to quantify the printability window of cement-based materials based on their structuration rates. An experimental study was conducted on printable mortars incorporating a viscosity-modifying agent (VMA) to assess printing quality as a function of the degree of thixotropy. Different types of stability failures were captured and discussed.
