| Introduction
to Ceramics
A good article on
the background of the ceramics industry
provided by The American Ceramics
Society.
Advanced
Ceramic Technology Center
The Advanced Ceramic
Technology Center has the resources
to help U.S. industry overcome the
high cost of machining and certifying
structural ceramics, especially for
stringent applications such as heat
engines.
Ceramics
Industry Magazine - Reference Tables
This site has some
great references including: Material
Properties, Drying/Firing Tables,
Forming/Finishing Info., Refractories
and Testing Methods.
Dynamic-Ceramic
- Design Guides
A series of guides
are intended to act as an aid to engineers
and designers wishing to produce cost
effective designs for advanced ceramic
manufacture. The design tips also
refer primarily to components which
have to be finish ground to tight
tolerances.
Dynamic-Ceramic
- Material Properties
This site was designed
to aid in the selection of advanced
ceramics with a selection of pages,
which provide both comparative data
on the available materials in addition
to a more in-depth analysis of the
individual materials and their mechanical
and physical properties.
Dynamic-Ceramic
- Manufacturing Processes
Ceramic forming processes
may be classified as traditional -
die pressing, cold isostatic pressing,
slip casting and extrusion - or as
new and emerging, such as injection
moulding and tape casting.
