Abstract:
A precursor material is provided for additive manufacturing of a low-density, high-porosity ceramic part. The precursor material includes a body of refractory fibers and a binder in admixture with the body of refractory fibers. The precursor material further includes a viscosity control additive in admixture with the binder and the body of refractory fibers to provide an overall mixture with a viscosity between about 0.3 centipoise and about 150,000 centipoise.

Claim (Index 21):
A method for manufacturing a precursor material for additive manufacturing, the method comprising:\n preparing a refractory fiber slurry comprising a binder and a body of ceramic fibers, the body of ceramic fibers comprising about 50 weight percent to about 80 weight percent silica fibers and about 20 weight percent to about 50 weight percent alumina fibers; and adding a viscosity control additive to the refractory fiber slurry to provide a slurry with a viscosity between about 0.3 centipoise and about 150,000 centipoise.
