Stereolithography (SL) is a process that uses photosensitive polymer solutions to create 3D parts in a layer by layer approach. Sandia National Labs is interested in using SL for the printing of ceramic loaded resins, namely alumina, that we are formulating here at the labs. One of the most important aspects for SL printing of ceramics is the properties of the slurry itself. The work presented here will focus on the use of a novel commercially available low viscosity resin provided by Colorado Photopolymer Solutions, CPS 2030, and a Hypermer KD1 dispersant from Croda. Two types of a commercially available alumina powder, Almatis A16 SG and Almatis A15 SG, are compared to determine the effects that the size and the distribution of the powder have on the loading of the solution using rheology. The choice of a low viscosity resin allows for a high particle loading, which is necessary for the printing of high density parts using a commercial SL printer. The Krieger-Dougherty equation was used to evaluate the maximum particle loading for the system. This study found that a bimodal distribution of micron sized powder (A15 SG) reduced the shear thickening effects caused by hydroclusters, and allows for the highest alumina powder loading. A final sintered density of 90% of the theoretical density of alumina was achieved based on the optimized formulation and printing conditions.
