TY - CONF A1 - Günster, Jens T1 - Verfahrensübersicht von keramischem 3D-Druck N2 - Leistungsstarke Verfahren zur additiven Fertigung wie der 3D Druck und das Selektive Lasersintern basieren auf dem Schichtauftrag eines fließfähigen Pulvers. Bei keramischen Pulvern ist eine gute Fließfähigkeit ab einer Partikelgröße von ca. 40 µm gegeben. Bei Pulvern mit zu feinen Partikeln sind die adhäsiven Kräfte zwischen den Partikeln vergleichbar groß wie die Kräfte, die durch die Gravitation auf die Partikel wirken, was einem gleichmäßigen Fließen des Pulvers und somit einem gleichmäßigen Schichtaufbau entgegensteht. Die Verwendung von feineren Pulvern hat jedoch Vorteile, wie z.B. eine bessere Sinteraktivität. Neben der nötigen minimalen Partikelgröße besteht für keramische Werkstoffe ein wesentliches Problem der pulverbasierten Verfahren in der Tatsache, dass das Pulverbett, also das durch Schichtauftrag gestapelte Pulver, eine zu geringe Dichte besitzt. Dies bringt grundsätzlich zwei Nachteile mit sich: zum einen verhindert eine zu geringe Packungsdichte des Pulvers den Aufbau kompakter Grünkörper und letztlich deren Sinterung zu einer dichten Keramik, zum anderen wird im Aufbauprozess das Bauteil durch das Pulverbett nicht ausreichend gestützt. Beim Auftragen einer neuen Pulverschicht kann die bereits verfestigte Struktur im Pulverbett verschoben werden, was zu Defekten in der Struktur bis hin zum vollständigen Verlust der Struktur führt. Aus diesem Grunde ist neben dem Aufbau des zu fertigenden Bauteils u.U. der Aufbau von zusätzlich sogenannten Supportstrukturen gefordert. Diese Supportstrukturen verankern das Bauteil mit der Bauplattform und fixieren es somit im Koordinatensystem des Bauraums der Anlage. Das Entfernen der Supportstrukturen erfordert nach dem eigentlichen additiven Fertigungsprozess einen zusätzlichen Prozessschritt, der zeitaufwendig und kaum zu automatisieren ist, und daher einer autonomen Fertigung, wie sie durch die Additive Fertigung realisiert werden kann, entgegensteht. Es werden unterschiedliche Strategien für die Stabilisierung des Pulverbetts und zur Erzielung einer hohen Packungsdichte der Partikel im Pulverbett aufgezeigt. Neben der Lagenweise SchlickerDeposition (LSD) werden Ergebnisse zur Gas Flow Assisted Powder Deposition vorgestellt.

But to transfer the light through the feedstock it needs sufficient transparency at the used light wavelength. Ceramic particles used for powder processing routes act as scattering sites and therefore hinder the light transmission, unless… The particle size and particle size distribution are chosen small and narrow enough. Particles which are smaller than roughly 1/10th of the light wavelength, mostly nanoparticles around 5nm size, decrease scattering vastly. This turns resins even with homogeneously distributed ceramic weight fraction of up to 80% transparent again. Feedstocks could be prepared for the highly accurate two-photon-polymerization gaining the smallest yttria stabilized zirconia structures with a resolution of 500nm and unique mechanical properties. The same feedstocks could be applied to DLP and LCM as layer-by-layer AM-technologies for bigger parts. Hybridizing both technologies lead to ceramic parts with microscopic accuracy at macroscopic dimensions. The feedstock was even applied to the volumetric Xolography with the highest transparency requirement so far and to versatile and flexible holographic AM. Highly filled nano-particle containing transparent ceramic feedstocks open the way for technical ceramics in high precision manufacturing where the performance and durability and accessibility are increased and created by the unique ceramic properties such as mechanical strength, chemical and thermal resistance and biocompatibility T2 - 14th International Conference on Ceramic Materials and Components for Energy and Environmental Systems CY - Budapest, Hungary DA - 18.08.2024 KW - Transparent KW - Ceramic KW - Additive manufacturing PY - 2024 AN - OPUS4-60891 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Karl, D.

T1 - Towards the colonization of Mars by in-situ resource utilization: Slip cast ceramics from Martian soil simulant N2 - Here we demonstrate that by applying exclusively Martian resources a processing route involving suspensions of mineral particles called slurries or slips can be established for manufacturing ceramics on Mars. We developed water-based slurries without the use of additives that had a 51 wt. % solid load resembling commercial porcelain slurries in respect to the particle size distribution and rheological properties. These slurries were used to slip cast discs, rings and vases that were sintered at temperatures between 1000 and 1130 °C using different sintering schedules, the latter were set-up according the results of hot-stage microscopic characterization. The microstructure, porosity and the mechanical properties were characterized by SEM, X-ray Computer tomography and Weibull analysis. Our wet processing of minerals yields ceramics with complex shapes that show similar mechanical properties to porcelain and could serve as a technology for future Mars colonization. The best quality parts with completely vitrificated matrix supporting a few idiomorphic crystals are obtained at 1130 °C with 10 h dwell time with volume and linear shrinkage as much as ~62% and ~17% and a characteristic compressive strength of 51 MPa.

The key to further market penetration is AM that makes it possible to integrate into an already established ceramic process chain. Most successful AM technologies for ceramics are, however, based on processes that initially have been developed for polymeric materials. For ceramics AM, polymers or precursors are loaded with ceramic particles. This strategy facilitates the entry into AM, however the introduction of organic additives into the ceramic process chain represents a considerable technological challenge to ultimately obtain a ceramic component after additive shaping. In the present communication, two technologies based on ceramic suspensions will be introduced, the “layerwise slurry deposition” (LSD) and “laser induced slip casting” (LIS) technology. Both technologies take advantage of the high packing densities reached by conventional slip casting and moreover enable the processing of fines, even nanoparticles.

Calcium alkali orthophosphates, with their superior bioactivity, resorbability, and chemical resemblance to bone minerals, have emerged as promising candidates for implant coatings. These materials offer improved solubility and lower melting points due to the substitution of calcium with potassium and sodium, along with the addition of magnesium oxide. This study investigates GB14 calcium alkali orthophosphate coatings applied via High Velocity Suspension Flame Spraying (HVSFS), a technique that enables precise control over coating properties. A porosity target of >10% was set to promote bone growth, and we achieved porosities up to 13%, ensuring better cell penetration and stability at the implant-bone interface. Coatings were produced using different gas parameters and distances, with their microstructure and phase composition analyzed using scanning electron microscope (SEM), Vickers hardness testing and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Additionally, roughness and porosity were also assessed. Different coating’s microstructures were achieved by varying stand-off distance and gas parameters. Increasing stand-off distance while reducing gas stoichiometry enabled the production of calcium alkali orthophosphate coatings with fewer cracks, higher porosity and a hardness level comparable to that of state-of-the-art tricalcium phosphate (TCP) coatings. The sample with optimized properties in terms of achieved microstructure and topography was selected for in vitro testing using MG63 osteosarcoma cells to evaluate cell proliferation and adhesion. WST (I) assay, LDH assay, and live/dead staining confirmed the biocompatibility of the coatings, highlighting the potential of HVSFS to enhance osseointegration and outperform conventional methods in implantology. No relevant cytotoxicity could be shown and cells show a good proliferation over time. These results highlight thus the potential of HVSFS to produce thin, bioactive and resorbable coatings to enhance osseointegration.

A1 - Günster, Jens A1 - Günther, D. T1 - The materials science of additive manufacturing - Introduction N2 - Additive Manufacturing (AM) covers a wide range of processes, ranging from rapid prototyping technologies for polymers to directed energy deposition and powder bed fusion processes for metals and ceramics. In all cases, AM processes involve the layer-by-layer deposition of material from a digital file. Even though these processes may be known by a variety of commercial names, the general characteristics of the processes are similar, as are their impacts on different material systems. The flexibility of the process provides unprecedented design freedom by allowing the direct fabrication of complex geometries with unique material combinations. However, the interactions between the high energy density sources (laser and electron beams) and the materials being deposited create complex processing conditions that have a significant impact on the material properties. With the wide ranging possibilities inherent in AM produced components, a fundamental understanding of the process/structure/property relationships across different material systems will allow for specific material properties to be obtained. This Focus Issue of Journal of Materials Research is dedicated to the most recent advances in the characterization of processing/structure/property relationships in AM produced metallic, ceramic, and polymer systems. The breadth of different properties and behaviors across these different materials systems makes the characterization of AM materials extremely complex and a fertile subject for investigation. Many of these issues are addressed in this collection of papers. Such a wide range of unique research areas and the breadth of materials examined in this issue is evidence of the scope of materials issues in additive manufacturing and a glimpse into the future. We are grateful to both the authors and reviewers of the many high-quality manuscripts submitted to this JMR Focus Issue on The Materials Science of Additive Manufacturing.
