Popis: Additive manufactured (AM) 94 % alumina was successfully 3D printed using the Lithography Ceramic Manufacturing (LCM) technique. Each 3D printed sample was exposed to a different stage of the thermal post-process to identify changes in chemical composition at each stage. The thermal phases studied were the as printed green state, preconditioning at 120 °C, debinding at 600 °C, debinding at 1100 °C, and sintering at 1650 °C. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman Spectroscopy, Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), and X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) were used to evaluate the changes in composition at each stage of the thermal post-process. Cross-sectional images of 3D printed alumina samples after thermal exposure were captured using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
