Linking Rheology and Printability for Dense and Strong Ceramics by Direct Ink Writing

Abstract Direct ink writing of dense and strong ceramic objects remains an important open challenge. We develop a universal dimensionless criterion for printing such objects. Boehmite, an Al2O3 precursor, was used to assess the rheological properties leading to dense structures in ceramics manufactu...
