AbstractInk-jet printing is a versatile freeform fabrication technique with a high spatial resolution. By suspending ceramic particles in low melting point organic materials and printing above the melting point, rapid cooling on impact after printing results in rapid layer growth. Current results from a collaborative programme studying the hot wax ink-jet printing of structural ceramic components will be reported. The influence of key fluid properties on the ink-jet deposition process are discussed.

A general approach to prepare aqueous suspensions of inorganic particles suitable for ink-jet printing was developed. Titanium dioxide was used as the model material. Stable colloidal suspensions of TiO2 particles in water were prepared by adjusting the pH. The milling conditions were optimized in order to effectively mill the starting micron-sized powder. After 280 min of milling, the particle size was decreased to dmean = 170 nm. The fluid properties of the suspensions, i.e. viscosity and surface tension, were optimized by increasing the solid load of TiO2 powder and by addition of the surfactant triton X-100. Additionally, glycerol was added to the suspensions to control the drying behavior. The patterns of TiO2 were successfully printed on glass substrates.

ABSTRACTIn this paper, we combine the use of Drop-on-Demand (DOD) ink-jet printing with completely water- based inks as a novel approach to the CSD process for coated conductors. This method holds the promise of improved scalability due to lower ink losses, continuous processing and a drastically increased precursor lifetime due to the prevention of solvent evaporation and dust incorporation. Moreover, ink-jet printing has the potential to switch quite easily from continuous coatings to a multi-filamentary pattern, which is particularly important for alternating current (AC) or field applications of coated conductors. The fluid properties, often expressed with dimensionless constants, like the Reynolds and Weber numbers, for printable liquids were determined. For proof-of-concept, single crystals of SrTiO3 with a low mismatch towards YBCO, were used as substrates.
