Description
Gao and co-authors report a 2026 printing method for ceramic parts that can change shape after printing. The team mixes a light-cured resin with shape memory polymers and iron oxide ceramic powders. Printed parts are then set into a planned shape. Heat or a magnetic field can call the shape back later.
Tests mapped how the mixed slurry behaves and how the layers cure. Computer models of the mix showed how the polymer grips the mineral grains. The set parts held their planned forms and recovered shape under heat or magnetic pull. The authors frame the method as a route to smart ceramic parts, such as folding space parts and touch-free medical tools.
