自己相似構造を有するガラス／セラミック複合部材の光造形アディティブ・マニュファクチャリング

Ceramic and glass materials exhibit desirable properties for various applications. A glass-ceramic composite material could be utilized as an alternative to pure ceramic materials, with a reduced energy requirement for processing and recycling. In this work, customized photosensitive pastes containing zirconia and glass particles were created and processed by stereolithography. Complex 2- dimensional and 3-dimensional Hilbert curve structures were designed and analysed by computational fluid dynamics to visualize heat transfer and fluid streamline distributions. Paste composition, stereolithography process parameters, and post-processing heat treatments were investigated, and complex components of the custom glass-ceramic composite material were successfully fabricated.
