A ceramic component containing silicon carbide and to the use of the component. The method for producing the ceramic component includes the following steps: a) providing a green body based on SiC, which has been produced by means of a 3D-printing method, b) impregnating the green body with a solution selected from the group consisting of a sugar solution, a starch solution or a cellulose solution, or a resin system comprising a mixture containing at least one resin, at least one solvent and at least one curing agent, the at least one resin and the at least one solvent being different, c) drying or curing the impregnated green body, d) carbonising the dried or cured green body, wherein a fine-pored, foam-like carbon skeleton is produced from the dried solution or a fine-pored, sponge-like carbon skeleton is produced from the cured resin system.

Ceramic component

A method for producing the component, and to the use of the component. The method for producing a three-dimensional, ceramic component containing silicon carbide, by a) providing a powdery composition having a grain size (d50) between 3 microns and 500 microns and comprising at least 50 wt % of coke, b) providing a liquid binder, c) depositing a layer of the material provided in a) in a planar manner and locally depositing drops of the material provided in b) onto said layer and repeating step c), the local depositing of the drops in the subsequent repetitions of the step is adapted in accordance with the desired shape of the component to be produced, d) at least partially curing or drying the binder and obtaining a green body having the desired shape of the component, e) carbonising the green body, and f) siliconising the carbonised green body by infiltration with liquid silicon.

3-D printing of a ceramic component

A molding tool made of carbon or graphite, namely a casting mold or a casting core for the processing of molten metal or to a molding tool for the processing of molten glass, such as for example a blow mold and a method for producing the molding tool.

Molding tool for molten metal or glass

A ceramic component, wherein the component contains 20 to 60 wt. % SiC, 5 to 40 wt. % free silicon and 10 to 65 wt. % free carbon. The disclosure also relates to the use of the component. The method for producing the ceramic component includes the following steps: a) providing a green body based on carbon, which has been produced by means of a 3D-printing method, b) impregnating the green body with a solution selected from the group consisting of a sugar solution, a starch solution or a cellulose solution, or a resin system including a mixture containing at least one resin, at least one solvent and at least one curing agent, wherein the at least one resin and the at least one solvent are different, c) drying or curing the impregnated green body.

A composite material containing carbon and a plastic includes: a) provision of a pulverulent composition with one or more components of amorphous carbon, graphite and mixed forms thereof, b) provision of a liquid binder, c) planar deposition of a layer consisting of the material provided in step a) and local deposition of droplets of material provided in step b) onto this layer and any number of repetitions of step c), the local deposition of the droplets in the successive repetitions of this step being adapted according to the desired shape of the component to be produced, d) at least partial curing or drying of the binder to obtain a green body that has the desired shape of the component, e) impregnation of the green body with a liquid synthetic resin and f) curing of the synthetic resin to produce a synthetic resin matrix.
