The application of additive manufacturing method such as material extrusion (MEX) allows the successful fabrication of ceramic products, including multi-ceramic products. Promising materials in this research area are TiO[sub.2] and ZrO[sub.2] ceramics, which can be used in electrical and electronic engineering. The aim of this work is to investigate the possibility of fabricating TiO[sub.2]/ZrO[sub.2] multi-materials from ceramic pastes that can be used in the MEX. In this work, defects, chemical and phase composition, and microhardness were analyzed in multi-ceramic samples after sintering. Multi-ceramic TiO[sub.2]/ZrO[sub.2] samples after the sintering process without interlayer could not be fabricated due to a too large difference in shrinkage between TiO[sub.2] and ZrO[sub.2]. The samples with one and three interlayers also have defects, but they are less significant and can be fabricated. The average hardness for the TiO[sub.2] zone was 636.7 HV and for the ZrO[sub.2] zone was 1101 HV. In the TiO[sub.2] zone, only TiO[sub.2] phase in rutile is observed, while in the interlayer zones, in addition to rutile, ZrO[sub.2] and ZrTiO[sub.4] are also present, as is a small amount of Y[sub.2]O[sub.3]. In the zone ZrO[sub.2], only the ZrO[sub.2] phase is observed. The chemical analysis revealed that the interlayers comprise sintered ZrO[sub.2] granules enveloped by TiO[sub.2], ZrO[sub.2], and ZrTiO[sub.4].
