   For example, the fracture toughness of diamond is about 7–10 MPa·m 1/2, [16] [17] which is high compared to other gemstones and ceramic materials, but poor compared to many metals and alloys – common steels and aluminium alloys have the toughness values at least 5 times higher.

3. Ceramic valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_valve

   A ceramic valve is a valve with ceramic trim, ball, seat, disc or lining. A carbon steel or stainless steel body is used to protect the ceramic trim from being damaged by sudden thermal or mechanical shock. Advanced ceramics are used in the manufacture including alumina, [1] zirconia and silicon nitride.

6. Ceramic - Wikipedia

   Ceramic bearings typically last triple the lifetime of steel bearings. They deform less than steel under load, resulting in less contact with the bearing retainer walls and lower friction. In very high-speed applications, heat from friction causes more problems for metal bearings than ceramic bearings. Ceramics are chemically resistant to ...

   Ceramic tubes can be outgassed at higher temperatures. Because of the high-temperature seal, ceramic tubes withstand higher temperatures than glass tubes. Ceramic tubes are also mechanically stronger and less sensitive to thermal shock than glass tubes. [6] Today, cermet vacuum tube coatings have proved to be key to solar hot water systems.
