  "term": "Ceramic injection molding",
  "field": "Additive manufacturing and 3D printing",
  "definition": "A manufacturing process, abbreviated CIM, where ceramic powder is mixed with a binder to form a feedstock, which is then injected into a mold to create a green part. While not a direct additive manufacturing process, it is a traditional method for producing complex ceramic components that can be complemented by 3D printing for tooling or prototypes. The molded part undergoes debinding and sintering to achieve final density.",
