Сeramics - is an inorganic, non-metallicsolidmaterial preparedbytheactionofheatandnext cooling. Ceramic materials haveacrystallineorpartlycrystallinestructure
Ceramic materials arebrittle, hard, strongincompression, weakinshearingandtension
Ceramics in general stable in very high temperatures (from 1,000°C to 1,600°C).
Traditional ceramic raw materials include: -clay minerals (kaolinite)-aluminiumoxide (feldspare)-silica (sand)
Theword "ceramic" comesfromthe Greek wordκεραμικός (keramikos) meaningpottery • domestic • industrial • building • technical • art objects
Typesofceramicproducts (4 groups:) • Structuralceramics (bricks, pipes, floor androof tiles • Refractoriesceramics (kilnlinings, fireradiants, steel and glass makingcrucibles) • Whitewares (tableware, wall tiles, pottery products, andsanitaryware) • TechnicalCeramics (SpaceShuttleprogram, ballisticprotection, nuclearfuelpellets, bio-medical implants, blades, andbombs)
Whitewareceramics • Bone china calcined cattle bone (bone ash) Characteristics: highwhiteness, translucencyandstrength
Productionof bone china usuallyinvolvesatwostages: • firingofbisque(itemswithoutaglaze) atthetemperature 1280 °C • glaze (glost) firedatalowertemperature(below 1080 °C)
Earthenware 25% clay, 28% kaolin, 32% quartz, 15% feldspar

Classificationoftechnicalceramics Oxidesceramics: alumina, zirconia • Non-oxidesceramics: Carbides, borides, nitrides, silicides • Composites: сombinationsofoxidesandnon-oxides.
