Abstract

La présente invention porte sur un procédé pour produire un corps structural pressé par matrice qui comprend, dans l'ordre suivant : une première étape de préparation d'une matière liquide qui devient un oxyde métallique ou un métal en étant soumise à un traitement thermique ; une deuxième étape de formation d'une couche de composition de précurseur faite d'une composition de précurseur dudit oxyde métallique ou dudit métal par application de la matière liquide sur une matière de base ; une troisième étape de formation, sur la couche de composition de précurseur, d'une structure pressée par matrice comprenant un film résiduel en soumettant la couche de composition de précurseur à un processus de pressage par matrice à l'aide d'une matrice ayant des saillies et des renfoncements ; et une quatrième étape de traitement de film résiduel en soumettant la couche de composition de précurseur, qui a la structure pressée par matrice formée sur celle-ci, à un traitement de calcination avec un plasma à pression atmosphérique ou un plasma à pression réduite ; et une cinquième étape de formation d'un corps structural pressé par matrice fait dudit oxyde métallique ou dudit métal à partir de la couche de composition de précurseur en soumettant la couche de composition de précurseur à un traitement thermique. Selon ce procédé de production de corps structural pressé par matrice, il est possible de produire différents dispositifs fonctionnels à l'aide de quantités de matières premières et d'énergie de production significativement plus petites en comparaison avec l'état de la technique classique et avec moins d'étapes en comparaison avec l'état de la technique classique.
