Abstract
Digital light processing (DLP) is considered as one of the most promising additive manufacturing technologies to process ceramics. However, the potential defects produced in the debinding and sintering process extremely restrict ceramic application. In this work, a plasticizer which effectively inhibits defects of the green body in debinding process was investigated. The effects of plasticizer (Polyethylene glycol 200) on the rheological behavior and curing property of the slurry were discussed. In addition, the debinding process and the mechanical of zirconia parts with different PEG200 contents were studied. Adding 20 vol% PEG200 could efficiently suppress the defects in debinding process, and the flexural strength increased from 302 ± 15 to 1210 ± 25 MPa of the ZrO<sub>2</sub> ceramic sintered at 1600 °C. The superior biocompatibility and mechanical property reveal that the DLP zirconia has a promising application prospect of biology dental ceramic prostheses.
