Sintering of multi-material and multilayer systems

3. Oral presentation

Layered ceramics have proved effective against contact damage and thermal shock, associated with the effect of compressive residual stresses and/or textured microstructure against surface crack propagation. In addition, the use of “rapid sintering” non-conventional techniques has made feasible tailoring the size and/or shape of grains in bulk alumina materials. In this study we explore the...

Sintering of multi-material and multilayer systems

3. Oral presentation

With the growing need for sustainable energy, efficient energy generation and conversion methods are becoming increasingly important. One of these conversion methods is hydrogen separation utilising ceramic membranes. These membranes consist of a thin, dense membrane layer and a porous support layer to ensure the membrane’s ability to withstand stresses is upheld. During sintering, the...

Sintering of multi-material and multilayer systems

3. Oral presentation

Sintering-assisted 3D extrusion is an additive manufacturing process that enables the rapid, low-cost production of parts with complex geometries. The process involves 3D extrusion of a polymer (binder) filled to around 50% by volume with a metal or ceramic powder. After a debinding step, sintering is a critical stage during which shrinkage, deformation and cracking can occur. These phenomena...

Sintering of multi-material and multilayer systems

3. Oral presentation

Multimaterial additive manufacturing (MMAM) promises to level up the fabrication of multifunctional parts by enabling the precise, voxel-level integration of different materials within a single component. While easier in soft matter, the integration of dissimilar metals in one printed component remains a significant challenge. This stems primarily from stark differences in materials...
