The effect of the structure and properties of acrylate monomers on the rheology and polymerization of suspensions containing partially stabilized zirconia, a dispersant, and a photoinitiator as a ceramic filler was investigated. It was shown that the addition of DISPERBYK 2013 to 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate, dipropyleneglycol to diacrylate, and tripropyleneglycol to diacrylate makes it possible to obtain suspensions with viscosity < 5 Pa · sec at high filling with TZ-3YS-Z powder (up to 41 vol.%). It was determined that three-dimensional printing of high-density ceramic products with complex geometry is made possible by using the obtained suspensions.
