Additive manufacturing (AM) of ceramics is an active field of research that aims to develop and optimize processes to produce customized, complex ceramic parts useful in various sectors. In fact, AM is entering the era where industrial applications are becoming economically profitable and AM ceramic parts can be produced with mechanical properties close to conventionally produced ceramics.¹

Currently, AM is achieved most commonly through multistep “indirect” processes. Indirect processes require two or more supplementary steps, such as pyrolysis (debinding) and sintering, to transform the green body into a final product with desired geometry and properties.^2,3
