Re:Glassomer: Glass shaping at room temperature by blix on Thursday June 18, 2020 @02:13PM (#23565883)
Ceramics and glasses are typically very sensitive to thermal gradients, so it's difficult to produce parts with SLS/SLM without cracking. This method is more common with ductile plastics and metals, and for structural application is still a WIP,

This is closer to a binder-jetting method, but a binder-glass composite can also be used for subtractive manufacturing which is typically very challenging with ceramics due to cracking.
