It has been proposed that a thin polymer layer applied to the
surfaces of finely divided ceramic powders would serve as a suitable
intermediate binder for Selective Layer Sintering of ceramic pans. In this
study, the effects of completeness and fraction of coa nd particle size
distribution on sintering rates and strengths of coated ridized glass are
examined. The effect of the coating as a binder during Selective Layer
Sintering as well as the binder's burnout capability during post processing
steps are also investigated.Mechanical Engineerin
