Here at Hackaday, we feature projects that are built of just about every material imaginable. Silicon-spangled fiber-reinforced epoxy resin is our primary medium, but we see plastic, wood, steel, ...

Particle size is the most important parameter in the production of ceramic products. The particle size must be optimised to ensure that the desired physical / mechanical properties are achieved. The ...

Thixotropic casting involves vibratory casting of highly thixotropic slips of very high solids loadings that are fluid only under vibration, using porous or nonporous molds. It is quite different from ...

The field of porous ceramics has experienced significant progress due to advanced processing methods such as freeze casting, also known as ice templating. This technique harnesses the directional ...

Ceramic-based potting and casting materials are designed for the production of high-power, high-temperature electrical devices, as well as molds and tooling that must withstand high temperatures ...

Slip casting can be messy both in processing and in making the original plaster mold. What if there was a better way, thanks to 3D printing? [Allie Katz] has developed a new technique using 3D printed ...

ALGOMA - What would you do with more than 30,000 ceramic casting molds? That's the question Virginia Haske hopes someone is willing to answer, soon. Haske and her husband, John, are retiring and ...
