| Abstract Scope |
Ceramics have exceptional thermal, mechanical, electrical, and dielectric properties, and are highly suitable for functional and structural applications in electronics and harsh environments. However, the brittle nature and high hardness of ceramics have historically posed challenges in manufacturing and processing. Recently, the advent of 3D printing has enabled the fabrication of intricate and precise ceramic structures with ease. The article primarily concentrates on showcasing our research of the last decade on the utilization of 3D printing for both oxide and non-oxide ceramics for complex and customized structures to enhance the performance of conventional applications. On the oxide ceramics front, we will showcase our effort in printing piezoelectric ceramics with tunable sensing capabilities, and alumina and zirconia with intricate gradient micro lattices for tunable thermal and mechanical properties. On the non-oxide ceramics front, will showcase our effort in printing UHTC ceramics with fiber reinforcement to engineer mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties. |
