Sacrificial ceramic support filaments: BASFRecent Research Landscape

Standard additive manufacturing feedstocks suffer from poor flow and structural instability during high-temperature melt processes. These innovations utilize core-shell granule architectures to stabilize support structures and barrier layers during 3D printing.

What technical problems is BASF addressing in Sacrificial ceramic support filaments?

Structural collapse during thermal processing

(5)evidences

Unsupported overhanging geometries collapse or distort during high-temperature thermal processing. Maintaining structural integrity during phase transitions prevents dimensional inaccuracy and scrap.

Low molded article density

(5)evidences

Irregular thermal shrinkage and poor melt flow during laser sintering lead to dimensional inaccuracies. Achieving uniform particle fusion prevents structural defects in complex molded geometries.
