Abstract Scope |
We explore the production of complex-shape ultrahigh-temperature ceramic parts using a variety of additive and advanced manufacturing techniques. Factors such as powder particle morphology, presence of binders, green body density, feature sizes, and pressureless sintering conditions are examined and considered. New powder feedstock engineering techniques are implemented for rheology control. High-temperature testing techniques are used to evaluate the survivability of UHTC coupons. |
