Résumé

In this work, porous carbons were prepared by 3D printing formulations based on acrylate–tannin resins. As the properties of these carbons are highly dependent on the composition of the precursor, it is essential to understand this effect to optimise them for a given application. Thus, experimental design was applied, for the first time, to carbon 3D printing. Using a rationalised number of experiments suggested by a Scheffé mixture design, the experimental responses (the carbon yield, compressive strength, and Young’s modulus) were modelled and predicted as a function of the relative proportions of the three main resin ingredients (HDDA, PETA, and CN154CG). The results revealed that formulations containing a low proportion of HDDA and moderate amounts of PETA and CN154CG gave the best properties. Thereby, the optimised carbon structures had a compressive strength of over 5.2 MPa and a Young’s modulus of about 215 MPa. The reliability of the model was successfully validated through optimisation tests, proving the value of experimental design in developing customisable tannin-based porous carbons manufactured by stereolithography.
