Abstract

Abstract Ceramic parts of complicated configurations with different thicknesses portions can be mass produced economically with high production yield and excellent quality by mixing a ceramic powder or metal powder with a molding additive, injection molding the mixture to form a green body of a desired shape, processing the green body to a substantially final configuration, removing the molding additive from the processed body to yield a processed and degreased body, and firing the processed and degreased body to sinter the same.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 67 words
A method of producing ceramic parts which comprises mixing a ceramic powder or metal powder with a molding additive, injection molding the mixture to form a green body of a desired shape, processing the green body to a substantially final configuration, removing the molding additive from the processed body to yield a processed and degreased body, and firing the processed and degreased body to sinter the same.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 67 words
A method of producing ceramic parts which comprises mixing a ceramic powder or metal powder with a molding additive, injection molding the mixture to form a green body of a desired shape, processing the green body to a substantially final configuration, removing the molding additive from the processed body to yield a processed and degreased body, and firing the processed and degreased body to sinter the same.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein the molding additive is at least one thermoplastic resin, wax or lubricant.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
A method according to claim 2, wherein the thermoplastic resin is at least one of polystyrene, polypropyrene, polyethylene and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.
