This greatly limits the size and shape of objects that can be printed; 3D printed ceramic objects have thus far been pretty much limited to relatively small decorative items or tableware. But that\u2019s all about to change, thanks to a new material developed by research and development company <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hrl.com\/\">HRL Laboratories, LLC.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\\'blog-photo\\' href=\"https:\/\/lifeboat.com\/blog.images\/groundbreaking-ceramic-resin-developed3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-113556 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/lifeboat.com\/blog.images\/groundbreaking-ceramic-resin-developed3.jpg\" alt=\"kiln\" width=\"382\" height=\"260\" \/><\/a>HRL, which is owned by<a href=\"http:\/\/www.boeing.com\/\"> Boeing<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gm.com\/\">General Motors<\/a>, has developed a ceramic resin that can be printed through stereolithography. The company actually calls it a \u201cpre-ceramic\u201d resin that prints like a typical plastic resin, and is then fired in a high temperature kiln, which turns it into a dense ceramic. The resulting objects are about ten times stronger than other 3D printed ceramics, have virtually no porosity, and can withstand temperatures higher than 1700\u00b0C.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWith our new 3D printing process we can take full advantage of the many desirable properties of this silicon oxycarbide ceramic, including high hardness, strength and temperature capability as well as resistance to abrasion and corrosion,\u201d said program manager Dr. Tobias Schaedler.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/3dprint.com\/113532\/hrl-labs-3d-ceramic-resin\/\" target=\"_blank\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3D printed ceramics are still something of a rarity, compared to other materials.
