Abstract

Fused deposition of ceramics (FDC) has been used to fabricate macroscopically graded ceramic skeletons. These Al2O3 skeletons were subjected to binder removal and sintering treatments. The sintered skeletons were infiltrated with copper alloys. Both the skeletons and composites were characterized for micro and macrostructure using scanning electron microcopy. Potential applications for the macroscopically graded ceramic/metal composites focus primarily on impact.
