Questions and Answers

What is the main purpose of using glass powder in selective laser sintering (SLS)?

  • To provide thermal stability in electronic devices
  • To create 3D objects for architectural and product design (correct)
  • To enhance the strength of glass objects
  • To improve the adhesion of glass layers
  • Why is fused quartz being considered for optical, communication, electronic, and hermetic sealing applications?

  • Because of its resistance to corrosion
  • Because of its low cost compared to other materials
  • Due to its thermal stability and high transmissivity (correct)
