  2. Ceramic forming techniques - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_forming_techniques

    Ceramic forming techniques are ways of forming ceramics, which are used to make everything from tableware such as teapots to engineering ceramics such as computer parts. Pottery techniques include the potter's wheel , slip casting and many others.

  3. Ceramic engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_engineering

    Glass-ceramics often contain a crystalline phase which constitutes anywhere from 30% [m/m] to 90% [m/m] of its composition by volume, yielding an array of materials with interesting thermomechanical properties. [5] In the processing of glass-ceramics, molten glass is cooled down gradually before reheating and annealing.

  4. Chemical vapor infiltration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_vapor_infiltration

    Chemical vapour infiltration (CVI) is a ceramic engineering process whereby matrix material is infiltrated into fibrous preforms by the use of reactive gases at elevated temperature to form fiber-reinforced composites. [1] The earliest use of CVI was the infiltration of fibrous alumina with chromium carbide. [2]

  5. Compaction of ceramic powders - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compaction_of_ceramic_powders

    Compaction of ceramic powders is a forming technique for ceramics in which granular ceramic materials are made cohesive through mechanical densification, either by hot or cold pressing. The resulting green part must later be sintered in a kiln. The compaction process permits an efficient production of parts to close tolerances with low drying ...

  6. Ceramic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic

    Ceramic material is an inorganic, metallic oxide, nitride, or carbide material. Some elements, such as carbon or silicon, may be considered ceramics. Ceramic materials are brittle, hard, strong in compression, and weak in shearing and tension. They withstand the chemical erosion that occurs in other materials subjected to acidic or caustic ...

  7. Slip casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_casting

    Slip casting, or slipcasting, is a ceramic forming technique, and is widely used in industry and by craft potters to make ceramic forms. This technique is typically used to form complicated shapes like figurative ceramics that would be difficult to be reproduced by hand or other forming techniques. [ 1 ]

  8. Ceramic molding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_molding

    Ceramic molding is a versatile and precise manufacturing process that transforms clay or porcelain into intricate shapes. Employing techniques like slip casting or press molding, artisans create precise replicas of original models. After molding, the ceramics are fired at high temperatures, ensuring durability and aesthetic appeal.

  9. Hot isostatic pressing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_isostatic_pressing

    Hot isostatic pressing (HIP) is a manufacturing process, used to reduce the porosity of metals and increase the density of many ceramic materials. This improves the material's mechanical properties and workability. The process can be used to produce waste form classes.
