Characteristics of ceramic materials
The characteristics of ceramic materials define the behaviour of the material in different situations such as: Resistance to temperature, capacity for electrical insulation and resistance to corrosion. It’s important to have a good knowledge of the characteristics of these materials as these will facilitate what material we need depending on their functionalities. Electrical properties of […]
Mechanical properties of ceramic materials
The mechanical properties of materials are those that define their behaviour when exposed to external forces. There are several types of external forces capable of generating mechanical responses in materials, for example, tensile, compressive and torsional forces. It is important to take into account the forces that will be applied in each industrial process, as […]
Resistance of Ceramic Materials to Temperature Change
Technical ceramics have excellent mechanical strength, high hardness, wear resistance, high temperature resistance and relatively low density. In terms of conductivity, it is an excellent material as an electrical and thermal insulator. After a thermal shock, i.e. the sudden heating that forces the ceramic material to expand, the ceramic can withstand sudden changes in temperature […]
