Three-dimensional (3D) printing has allowed for the production of geometrically complex 3D objects with extreme flexibility, which is currently undergoing rapid expansion in terms of materials, functionalities, as well as areas of application. When attempting to print 3D microstructures in glass, femtosecond laser-induced chemical etching (FLICE)—which is a subtractive 3D printing technique—has proved itself a powerful approach. Here, we demonstrate the fabrication of macro-scale 3D glass objects of large heights up to ~3.8 cm with an identical lateral and longitudinal feature size of ~20 μm. The remarkable accomplishment is achieved by revealing an unexplored regime in the interaction of ultrafast laser pulses with fused silica, which results in depth-insensitive focusing of the laser pulses inside fused silica.

Microstructure And Performance

Fused silica-based ceramics are often used as sacrificial cores in investment castings to produce hollow, precise, and complex-shaped blades. In this work, the content of mullite fiber and its effects on mechanical and dimension behavior of silica-based ceramic cores were investigated. In order to simulate the single crystal blades casting process, the sintered samples were also heated up to 1540°C and kept for 0.5 h. Flexural strength test at 1540°Cwas carried out for the samples. The shrinkage, creep behavior and erode behavior were characterized. The results showed that in the premise of maintaining strength of materials, mullite fiber could decrease significantly the shrinkage. Many gains appeared on the surface of fiber after creep test of the core samples at 1540°C.

Si/SiO2 composite green body with solid content of 50% was prepared by low toxic gel system and sintered in nitrogen at high temperature. Nitrogen compounds were synthesized in situ on fused silica ceramic substrate. The influence of different temperatures on nitriding reaction was discussed: different temperatures were used for nitriding at 1350 °C, 1400 °C, 1450 °C, 1500 °C. The effect of different nitriding times on nitriding reaction was discussed: different holding times were used for nitriding +1 h, 1.5 h, 2 h and 2.5 h. The best nitriding process was obtained by analyzing the composition, microstructure and properties of the nitrided samples.

AbstractSilica ceramic cores have played an important part in the manufacture of hollow blades due to their excellent chemical stability and moderate high-temperature mechanical properties. In this study, silica-based ceramics were prepared with Al2O3 addition by stereolithography, and the influence of Al2O3 content on mechanical properties of the silica-based ceramics was investigated. The Al2O3 in silica-based ceramics can improve the mechanical properties by playing a role as a seed for the crystallization of fused silica into cristobalite. As a result, with the increase of Al2O3 content, the linear shrinkage of the silica-based ceramics first decreased and then increased, while the room-temperature flexural strength and the high-temperature flexural strength first increased and then decreased. As the Al2O3 content increased to 1.0 vol%, the linear shrinkage was reduced to 1.64% because of the blocked viscous flow caused by Al2O3. Meanwhile, the room-temperature flexural strength and the high-temperature flexural strength were improved to 20.38 and 21.43 MPa with 1.0 vol% Al2O3, respectively, due to the increased α-cristobalite and β-cristobalite content. Therefore, using the optimal content of Al2O3 in silica-based ceramics can provide excellent mechanical properties, which are suitable for the application of ceramic cores in the manufacturing of hollow blades.
