If they can reliably get those densities and shrinkages from this procedure that is quite impressive. After a brief look through the papers, there is some promising evidence but I'd like to see a more thorough characterization, especially demonstrating spatial homogeneity of porosity and shrinkage.
It's certainly a very interesting technology, and I think it could potentially be applicable to materials beyond glass.

- blix 6y agoWhat's most interesting to me is subtractive manufacturing of ceramics. From what I've seen in metals, there's a preference for powder bed technologies over binder technologies. But it's not like I have a wide scope of current industry or research.
