Abstract
Abstract Low-pressure injection moulding is a very efficient process for net shape manufacturing of ceramic micro parts. In order to obtain sintered ceramic specimens without shape distortion or damages, density gradients in the green bodies have to be avoided. Especially feedstocks with a solid loading near the critical powder volume content often tend to segregate the binder while flowing. However, the value of critical powder content can be significantly influenced by particle size, particle size distribution and particle morphology. This paper compares two powder mixtures of identical chemical compositions with different specific surfaces and morphology and evaluates their workability for low-pressure injection moulding. The aim of this paper is to identify the influence of morphology on feedstock rheology as well as on accuracy, mechanical properties and microstructure of net shape manufactured reaction-bonded zircon ceramics.
