An accurate 3D imitating, rendering, and comprehension of ceramics were necessary for the fabrication and/or imitation of a durable microstructure for additive manufacturing (AM)/3D printed ceramics. The flowability of ceramic materials is another drawback of AM/3D printing. Most ceramic materials are obtained in the form of fine powders due to the usual production process, which exhibits poor flowability for AM. While AM is based on layer-by-layer fabrication of the entire structure, in the case of ceramics, electro-static disturbances and/or powder collection prevent sub-micrometer powders from spreading a narrow line and forming a layer. Although AM/3D printing of ceramics is difficult, producing ceramic-based materials and structures has significant applications in the fields of medicine, chemistry, aerospace, etc.
