Description
Zetamix Porcelain Filament bridges digital fabrication and traditional ceramics, enabling you to create authentic porcelain pieces using your standard FDM/FFF 3D printer. Print complex geometries impossible with conventional pottery, then transform your prints into durable, vitrified ceramics through our proven debinding and sintering process.

Your Path to Perfect Porcelain Prints
1. Design & Print
Scale models by 116% (X/Y) and 136% (Z) to accommodate sintering shrinkage
Use 3 wall layers minimum and 15-100% infill depending on application
Print on flexible build plates for easy removal
2. Debind with Confidence
Solvent Debinding: 24h in acetone bath at 40°C
Thermal Debinding: 7°C/h ramp from 50°C to 500°C
Achieve consistent binder removal for defect-free sintering
3. Sinter to Perfection
Heat to 1250°C at 125°C/h with 2h hold time
For enameling: pause at 1000°C, apply glaze, complete cycle to 1250°C
Achieve full vitrification and mechanical properties
FAQs
What equipment do I need beyond my 3D printer?
You’ll need acetone for solvent debinding and a high-temperature furnace capable of reaching 1250°C for sintering. The Zetasinter furnace is recommended for optimal results.
How strong are the finished porcelain parts?
After proper sintering, parts achieve 98-99% density with mechanical strength comparable to traditionally manufactured porcelain, suitable for functional applications like tableware
Can I use this with any FDM printer?
Yes, Zetamix Porcelain works with most FDM/FFF printers. We recommend using a grooved drive gear rather than aggressive teeth to prevent filament grinding.
What safety precautions should I take?
Use in well-ventilated areas, wear safety glasses and FFP2 masks when handling, and follow all MSDS guidelines. The material itself is not classified as dangerous but requires standard material handling precautions.
How long does the complete process take?
Printing times vary by model. Debinding takes approximately 2.5 days (including solvent and thermal stages), and sintering requires about 20 hours including ramp times and holding
Can I create food-safe items?
After proper sintering and application of food-safe glaze, yes. The sintered porcelain itself is inert and non-toxic, making it ideal for tableware applications.
What's the shelf life of the filament?
The filament has a one-year shelf life when stored in its original vacuum-sealed packaging in cool, dry conditions.
How do I handle failed prints or support material?
Failed prints and support material can be disposed of as non-hazardous waste according to local regulations. The unsintered material has minimal environmental impact.
