Summary of additive manufacturing techniques to fabricate dual-scale porous ceramics [4452]

Techniques Characteristics Reference
UV curing-assisted 3D plotting Incorporation of photocurable monomer and terpene in the filament [44]
Direct foam writing/Direct ink writing Extrusion of particle stabilized foam with trapped air bubbles or pore formers [4547]
3-dimensionally designed macro-scale pores with micro-scale pores
Powder based 3D printing Injection of printing liquid on the mixture of polymer, active filler, and inactive filler [48]
Controlled pore characteristics based on the amount of fillers
Camphene/ceramic co-extrusion Using camphene as a pore former in core and shell parts [49, 50]
Unidirectional macrochannel with interconnected pore walls
Digital light processing Tape-casting of photopolymerizable ceramic slurry containing freezing vehicles [51, 52]
Creating highly complex shape with excellent precision
