Nanoe is a renowned French company founded in 2008 and specialised in the production of innovative materials. It stands out mainly in the production of ceramic powders, with a production capacity of more than 100 tons of high purity ceramic powder per year.
Taking advantage of the high degree of know-how in the field of ceramics, in 2018 they created the Zetamix brand, the first brand of filaments with technical ceramics aimed at producing all-ceramic parts in an accessible and affordable way.
Nanoe currently has three ceramic filaments for technical applications: White Zirconia, Black Zirconia and Alumina.

Zetamix Alumina is a filament consisting of 83% by weight of alumina powder and 17% by weight of binder. Alumina is the most common aluminium oxide and the most widely used in industry and engineering applications. It is mainly noted for its high heat resistance and melting point, which makes it a refractory material suitable for high temperature applications.
Due to its high hardness (9 Mohs) and abrasion resistance, it is also often used in abrasive elements and is an economical alternative to synthetic diamond.
However, one of the most interesting applications in the field of 3D printing is the production of catalytic filters or air purifiers. The high capacity of alumina to absorb water or to act as a catalyst for certain chemical reactions such as the Claus process, together with the capacity of 3D printing to obtain parts with a high surface to volume ratio, make it an economical and efficient technology for the production of catalytic filters.
Zetamix ceramic filaments make it possible to obtain fully ceramic parts easily in three steps:
Ceramic printing has been a great challenge due to its complexity and high cost. Thanks to Zetamix ceramic filaments, it is possible to obtain complex all-ceramic parts in an economical and simple way.
It is recommended to carefully follow the design guide available in the download tab when designing the parts to be made with Zetamix Alumina.
When printing, the following parameters must be applied:
Printing temperature: 110 - 130 ºC
Base temperature: 40 ºC
Nozzle size: 0.4 - 1.0 mm
Coating height: 0.3 - 0.1 (0.15 recommended)
Print speed: 20 - 35 mm/s
Shrinkage: 1 mm to 20 mm/s
Perimeters: At least 2
Filling: 5 % - 100 % Filling: 5 % - 100 % Filling: 5 % - 100 % Filling: 5 % - 100
Top and bottom wall thicknesses: At least 1 mm
Substrates: Supports: Supports in the same material and in soluble materials.
Adhesion to backing: Glass backing and Magigoo adhesive recommended.
Zetamix ceramic filaments are only compatible with direct extruders. The spool should be placed on top of the printer so that the path between the spool and the extruder is as straight as possible.
It is advisable to reduce the extruder tension to a minimum to prevent the filament from deteriorating.
Debinding consists of two stages, a chemical and a thermal stage.
Chemical debinding: The part must be treated for at least 2 hours in an ultrasonic bath with acetone at 40 ºC. Afterwards, the piece must be left to air dry for at least 2 hours. If the treatment has been successful, the piece should lose 5% of its weight.
Heat debinding: The pieces must be placed in a crucible with refractory powder to support the shrinkage of the piece and to serve as a support during the process. A heat treatment should then be applied consisting of heating the parts from 20 ºC to 500 ºC at a rate of 8 ºC/hr. For small parts, the debinding time can be reduced by applying the following heat treatment:
Initial Temperature | Final Temperature | Speed |
---|---|---|
20 | 125 | 35 ºC/h |
125 | 200 | 50 ºC/h |
200 | 215 | 22 ºC/h |
215 | 250 | 11 ºC/h |
250 | 280 | 20 ºC/h |
280 | 320 | 8 ºC/h |
320 | 510 | 24 ºC/h |
After debinding, the part must be sintered by applying the following heat treatment:
