The word ceramics is originated from the Greek word keramos, which means ‘potter’s clay.’ Though, many composites that are classified as Ceramics today have no clay in it. Conventional ceramics include insulating materials, such as glass, abrasives, refractories, and enamels. They comprise of metal oxides, carbides, nitrides borides, and silicates—for instance, Tungsten carbide, Zirconia, Beryllia, Silicon carbide, Alumina, Magnesia. Modern Ceramics can be well-defined as the complexes of metals and non-metals. They usually have ionic atomic bonding between them. Depending on their atomic structure, ceramics are divided into Crystalline and Non-Crystalline ceramics. They are also distinguished into three material categories, Oxides, Non-oxides, and Composites. Properties of Ceramics The following are a few of the properties of the Ceramics. 1. Ceramics have high hardness and a high melting point. 2. They are a good thermal insulator. 3. They are highly electricity-resistant...
