ABSTRACT: This paper presents a state-of-the-art review on the processing of ceramics using Selective Laser
Melting (SLM). SLM is an Additive Manufacturing (AM) process where powder particles are melted by a
laser and fused together to form a layer and subsequently to form a 3-dimensional construct. In recent years,
SLM of ceramics is garnering
