Abstract
Method for producing an object by additively manufacturing a preform of the object from a building material comprising a polymer. The preform is encapsulated with a metal or metal alloy encapsulant that is capable of withstanding temperatures greater than the preform. The encapsulated preform is heated at a predetermined temperature and for a period of time, such that the preform at least partially transmutes into the form of a carbonaceous solid.
