This paper presents an overview of the contributions and challenges in developing three-dimensional (3D) ceramic biomaterials by this printing method. State-of-art in different bioceramics as Alumina, Zirconia, Calcium Phosphates, Glass/Glass-ceramics, and composites is presented and discussed regarding their applications and biological behavior, in a survey comprising from the production of customized dental prosthesis to biofabricating 3D human tissues. Although robocasting represents a disruption in manufacturing porous structures, such as scaffolds for Tissue Engineering (TE), many drawbacks still remain to overcome and although widely disseminated this technique is far from allowing the obtainment of dense parts. Thus, strategies for manufacturing densified bioceramics are presented aiming at expanding the possibilities of this AM technique. The advantages and disadvantages and also future perspectives of applying robocasting in bioceramic processing are also explored.

  • Applied Catalysis and Chemical Engineering April 08-10, 2019
    ACC - 2019 International Conference on Applied Catalysis and Chemical Engineering April 08-10, 2019 Venue Crowne Plaza by Deira Salahuddin Rd-Dubai United Arab Emirates Publishing Partner DAY 1 MONDAY, April 08, 2019 Keynote Presentation Towards an Industrial Production of Hydrogen Through Catalytic Autothermal POX/Dry Reforming of Methane Jnicolas Abatzoglou *, Frank Dega and Mostafa Chamoumi Université de Sherbrooke, Sherbrooke, Canada Abstract The diversification of energy sources, especially using non-fossil resources, is an efficient way to contribute to the solution of both environmental and socio-political issues. Hydrogen produced from renewable sources, such as biomass, appears as one of the potential future energy and raw material vectors. Currently, H 2 is mainly produced through natural gas and biogas catalytic steam reforming. This work belongs to a larger endeavour aimed at developing a new family of spinel-based catalysts. More specifically, this study targets the optimization of hydrogen production through a POX/Dry reforming of methane, operated close to the autothermal regime. The used patent-pending catalyst is a spinellized nickel formulation prepared from an ilmenite- derived negative value upgraded slag oxide (UGSO) coming from a TiO2 slag production unit operated by Rio Tinto Iron & Titanium, Quebec, Canada. The initial tests have been done in a tubular fixed bed reactor at 800-850°C, m cat = 0,3g, atmospheric pressure, space velocity between 4000 and 4600 ml STP /h/g cat and molar ratio of CH4 /CO2 = 3. The experiments revealed that CH4 /O2 = 2 molar ratio is the optimum condition, at 850°C. At these conditions, the conversion of CH 4 and CO reached 99% and 65% respectively while the selectivity of H 2 and CO was 104% and 79% respectively.

Abstract: Ceramic materials are increasingly used in micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) as they offer many advantages such as high-temperature resistance, high wear resistance, low density, and favourable mechanical and chemical properties at elevated temperature. However, with the emerging of additive manufacturing, the use of ceramics for functional and structural MEMS raises new opportunities and challenges. This paper provides an extensive review of the manufacturing processes used for ceramic-based MEMS, including additive and conventional manufacturing technologies. The review covers the micro-fabrication techniques of ceramics with the focus on their operating principles, main features, and processed materials. Challenges that need to be addressed in applying additive technologies in MEMS include ceramic printing on wafers, post-processing at the micro-level, resolution, and quality control.

  • Fall 2005 GRADUATE QUARTERLY 1 FALL 2005 Message from the Dean
    Volume 15 Number 1 Fall 2005 GRADUATE QUARTERLY 1 FALL 2005 Message from the Dean Dear Graduate Student, Too often, we see graduate education as a time of preparation for some- thing else—for careers in academia and industry, for professional practice, for roles in cutting edge research. Preparation, in brief, for the real world or our real lives—which we will resume only when our degrees are awarded and job placement has been secured. But if you think more deeply about the context in which you will conduct your graduate studies, you will see that the doing begins now. As graduate scholars, you will enrich the academic community with your insights, your perspectives, your experience. Faculty will be challenged by your questions and perspectives. Undergraduate students will find in you able teachers of fundamental concepts, caring mentors for laboratory work, and role models showing them a possible future for themselves. Similarly, the symbol of the ivory tower suggests that you are about to enter a rarefied atmosphere, rising above pedestrian concerns and dealing with substances uncommon in everyday life. But in today’s world, the ivory tower has many bridges and walkways to other key institutions in our soci- Phillip Channing ety: to government, to business, to culture. While the university provides a relatively sheltered and safe arena in which to examine ideas and events from a variety of critical perspectives, what we do here has an impact on people and events far beyond the campus boundary. There has always been a tension between engagement and sanctuary as features of the academic life.

Controlling and tuning rheological behaviour is key for successful manufacturing using these techniques. Different formulations have been proposed but the search continues for approaches that are clean, flexible and robust and can be adapted to a wide range of materials. Here we show how graphene oxide (GO) enables the formulation of water-based pastes to print a wide variety of materials (polymers, ceramics and steel) using robocasting. This work combines flow and oscillatory rheology, to provide further insights into the rheological behaviour of suspensions combining GO with other materials. Graphene oxide can be used to manipulate the viscoelastic response enabling the formulation of pastes with excellent printing behaviour that combine shear thinning flow and a fast recovery of their elastic properties. These inks do not contain other additives just GO and the material of interest.

Abstract Engineering ceramics are becoming increasingly important in the nowadays-industrial landscape, thanks to the exceptional combination of good mechanical, thermal and chemical properties. Nevertheless, traditional ceramic manufacturing technologies lack the ability to compete in a market of customized complex components. Additive Manufacturing therefore provides an important contribution, given the nearly unlimited design freedom. This research aims at developing an extrusion-based AM technology using UV-curable dispersions. The homogeneity, rheology and printability of these dispersions, containing 22,5%vol to 55%vol ZrO2 in different commercially available resins were investigated. A sintered density of 92% was obtained, proving the potential of the technology in development. © 2014 Published by Elsevier B.V This is an open access article under the CC BY-NC-ND license (©http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ 2014 The Authors.
