Original Abstract

The chapter is focused on the processing of bulk advanced ceramics. A general overview of ceramic processes is presented with the accent on the processes relevant to advanced ceramics in dentistry. The processing of ceramics is dived into four parts describing the basic processing steps: Powder treatment, Shaping of ceramic green body, Drying and binder removal, and Sintering. In the first part the reasons for powder treatment are discussed. The causes of powder agglomeration are explained and possible dispersion techniques are given. The principles of the most important methods of dry, wet and plastic shaping and consolidation of green bodies are explained. The mechanisms of solvent drying and binder removal from consolidated green bodies are discussed and potential problems of this processing step are highlighted. The densification of green bodies via sintering is explained and possible sintering techniques are described. Advantages and disadvantages of particular sintering methods are discussed.
