Description
Stereolithography (SLA) is an established process able to produce high resolution polymer parts with complex geometries. Silicon carbide (SiC) has uses in a variety of applications, but traditionally was hard to manufacture into complex geometries due to process limitations. There have been advances in producing SiC through SLA using a SiC-derived ceramic such as silicon oxycarbide (SiOC). In this study, a slurry using a commercially available resin as a base material with additional modifiers was investigated to create a SiC slurry ready for pressureless sintering. The effects of added photoinitiator, dispersant and a bimodal distribution of SiC particle sizes was studied using design of experiments (DOE). Printing parameters for the new material on a commercially available SLA printer were studied parametrically. A slurry and printing parameters were determined to produce a green part with a proposed debinding cycle.
