Abstract: A printing material and process for producing dense glass-ceramic articles by additive manufacturing are provided. The printing material includes a glass fit that densifies to a degree that closely approximates the theoretical density before appreciable crystallization occurs. Densification without interference from a crystalline phase enables greater degrees of densification. Further heating of the sintered printing material induces crystallization to form glass-ceramic articles having a density approaching the theoretical density. The printing material and process enable production of high density glass-ceramic articles at modest process temperatures.

Abstract: A glass ceramic material is disclosed that includes a residual glass, and a crystalline phase that includes a yoshiokaite phase. The yoshiokaite phase constitutes a main crystalline phase of the glass ceramic material.
