Description and Table of Contents

Description

Ceramics comprise all engineering materials or products that are chemically inorganic and are usually rendered serviceable through high temperature processing. There is a growing interest in the chemistry of ceramics as their uses are extended throughout the machining and electronics industries. This work, translated from the Japanese edition explains the chemical structures of ceramics and the resulting physical and chemical properties of different types of ceramics. The emphasis on the structure-property correlation aids understanding of traditional uses of and new technologies involved in the ceramics industry. Chapter 3 covers ceramic reactions which is important for the understanding of the underlying chemical structures and the production processes. Thermal, electrical, optical, mechanical, chemical and biochemical properties are all treated.
