Laminated ceramic composites are appealing for many applications due to their unique and customizable thermal and mechanical properties. Gelcasting is a relatively new, yet commercially proven, near-net-shape processing technique suitable for laminate production. A review of gelcasting techniques and a discussion of their application to laminate processing are provided, along with an overview of laminate design and processing concerns. Specific examples of single-phase laminates produced via gelcasting are provided, including porous/dense alumina and magnetically aligned iron titanate and barium hexaferrite structures.
