Mechanical Properties of ZrO2 TPMS Structures Prepared by DLP 3D Printing

• Compressive strength is one of the most important mechanical properties for cellular ceramics. But the dependence of compressive strength of highly porous cellular ceramic structures on porosity remains unclear due to the limit of available methods for making such strong structures based on specific structural designs. In this paper, the TPMS structures, namely P-cell, and neovius structure, were prepared based on the DLP 3D printing technology. Samples with various unit cells were fabricated with zirconia. The relative density of the sintered samples exceeds 99%. The effects of cell number on the compressive strength and deformation of the model were investigated. Samples with similar relative densities exhibited comparable mechanical property in aspect of compressive strength. It is very interesting that the cell number eventually only influence the total strain.
