The use of three-dimensional (3D) printing technology to form ceramic materials can greatly reduce the technical difficulty and cost of preparing special-shaped ceramic parts. In this work, the formation of the 3D structure of ceramic products was achieved through light-curing 3D printing technology. The semi-solid ceramic precursor fluid prepared from nano alumina particles (Al₂O₃), photocurable polyurethane acrylate (PUA) and isobornyl methacrylate (IBOMA) resin was used to realize ceramic fluid with self-made light-curing 3D printing equipment. The solidification and forming of the ceramic material was achieved through secondary high temperature sintering. In order to reveal the influence mechanism of nano-alumina content in a ceramic slurry on the forming process and performance of light-curing 3D printing, the composition, micro morphology and mechanical properties of 3D printing ceramic samples under different preparation conditions were investigated. The research results show that the relationship of the ratio of alumina to the forming performance was not a monotonic function in the mathematical sense. When the mass ratio of the resin system and alumina was 1 : 2.50, the performance of the formed sample was the best. At this time, the Vickers strength of the sintered ceramic part was 79 GPa, the bending strength was 340 MPa, and the fracture toughness was 2.90 MPa m⁻². This work laid a theoretical and practical foundation for the realization of high-quality, low-cost, and rapid ceramic manufacturing technology in the future.
