Preceramic polymers were proposed over 30 years ago as precursors for the fabrication of mainly Si‐based advanced ceramics, generally denoted polymer‐derived ceramics (PDCs). The polymer to ceramic transformation process enabled significant technological breakthroughs in science and technology, such development fibers, coatings, or stable at ultrahigh temperatures (up 2000°C) with respect decomposition, crystallization, phase separation, creep. In recent years, several important advances...
Additive manufacturing ( AM ) is a technology which has the potential not only to change way of conventional industrial processes, adding material instead subtracting, but also create entirely new production and business strategies. Since about three decades, technologies have been used fabricate prototypes or models mostly from polymeric metallic materials. Recently, products introduced into market that cannot be produced in another than additively. Ceramic materials are, however, easy...
The first example of the fabrication complex 3D polymer-derived-ceramic structures is presented with micrometer-scale features by a additive manufacturing (AM) technology, starting photosensitive preceramic precursor. Dense and crack-free silicon-oxycarbide-based microparts down to 200 μm are obtained after pyrolysis at 1000 °C in nitrogen atmosphere.
We present a fully functional material extrusion printer for optically transparent glass. The is composed of scalable modular elements able to operate at the high temperatures required process glass from molten state an annealed product. demonstrate enabling construction 3D parts as described by computer-aided design models. Processing parameters such temperature, which control viscosity, and flow rate, layer height, feed rate can thus be adjusted tailor printing desired component, its...
Porous geopolymer precursors were firstly prepared by the direct foaming method using bauxite, fly ash (FA), and metakaolin (MK) as raw materials, porous mullite ceramics after ammonium ion exchange then high-temperature sintering. The effects of chemical agent concentration, ion-exchange time, sintering temperature on geopolymer-derived studied, optimal preparation parameters found. Studies have shown that concentration blowing had great influence open porosity (<i>q</i>) cell size...
Abstract 3D printing (3DP) technologies have transformed the processing of advanced ceramics for small‐scale and custom designs during past three decades. Simple complex parts are designed manufactured using 3DP structural, piezoelectric, biomedical applications. Manufacturing simple or geometries one‐of‐a‐kind components without part‐specific tooling saves significant time creates new applications ceramic materials. Although development innovations in far behind compared with metals...
Silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) glasses with controlled amounts of Si—C bonds and free carbon have been produced via the pyrolysis suitable preceramic networks. Their chemical durability in alkaline hydrofluoric solutions has studied related to network structure microstructure glasses. SiOC glasses, because character bonds, exhibit greater both environments, compared silica glass. Microphase separation into silicon carbide (SiC), (SiO 2 ), carbon, which usually occurs this system at temperatures...
