Abstract This research advances the field of additive manufacturing (AM) silicon carbide (SiC) ceramics by integrating spark plasma sintering (SPS) to enhance material density, mechanical strength, and thermal properties. Traditional AM techniques struggle achieve high‐density SiC required for demanding applications, such as aerospace engineering, where high conductivity strength are paramount. Our study addresses these challenges incorporating SPS a post‐processing step, achieving near‐theoretical maximum densities significantly reducing porosity, thereby resulting in outstanding ceramics. We developed specialized ink optimized 3D printing, ensuring structural integrity after deposition through tailored rheological The application facilitates rapid, uniform sintering, essential attaining superior properties, performance. experimental results, confirmed scanning electron microscopy analysis, demonstrate significant microstructural conductivity, showcasing effectiveness processes. innovative approach not only expands capabilities producing complex, ceramic structures but also broadens potential applications environments.
