Company profile
The Institute for ceramic materials and technologies
(DE: Institut für keramische Materialien und Technologien – IKMT) is part of the engineering faculty at the University of Stuttgart.
We do fundamental research and develope solutions for challenges in the fields of functinoal ceramics, high-performance ceramics and surface technology.
The department for high performance ceramics is doing research along the complete process chain of oxide based technical ceramics from powder selection and material preparation to shaping, debinding, sintering and part characterisation for varoius shaping technologies especially CIM and AM. Therefore we are able to aimingly and integratively optimise every aspect of manucacturing with regard to the overall goal such as part or process properties often leading us to develop new materials and manufacturing technologies.
The department for functional materials focusses on ionic conductors (H, Li, O) and advanced sintering processes (particularly photonic sintering). We specialize on microstructure-related aspects and material development, conductivitiy and interfaces.
