In this study, we analyze the effect of temperature on the characteristics of post-treatment process of zirconia 3D printing. During the post-treatment process, the debinding and sintering processes were separated to determine the effect of temperature in each process, and the optimized conditions were adopted. The shrinkage rate and weight reduction rate according to the temperature conditions of the post-treatment process were checked, and the change in warpage characteristics and surface precision analysis were performed. In the debinding process, When the peak temperature was low, the warpage characteristics improved and the processing time decreased. Conversely, during the sintering process, when the peak temperature was high, the warpage characteristics improved. The process time and output quality can be improved if the optimized temperature conditions are used in the post-treatment process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
