2. 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 ...

3. Ceramic matrix composite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_matrix_composite

   Fracture surface of a fiber-reinforced ceramic composed of SiC fibers and SiC matrix. The fiber pull-out mechanism shown is the key to CMC properties. CMC shaft sleeves. In materials science ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) are a subgroup of composite materials and a subgroup of ceramics. They consist of ceramic fibers embedded in a ceramic matrix.

4. List of piezoelectric materials - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../List_of_piezoelectric_materials

   Piezoelectric materials (PMs) can be broadly classified as either crystalline, ceramic, or polymeric. [1] The most commonly produced piezoelectric ceramics are lead zirconate titanate (PZT), barium titanate, and lead titanate. Gallium nitride and zinc oxide can also be regarded as a ceramic due to their relatively wide band gaps.

6. Ceramic engineering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_engineering

   Ceramic" may be used as a noun in the singular to refer to a ceramic material or the product of ceramic manufacture, or as an adjective. Ceramics is the making of things out of ceramic materials. Ceramic engineering, like many sciences, evolved from a different discipline by today's standards.

7. Electroceramics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroceramics

   Electroceramics are a class of ceramic materials used primarily for their electrical properties.. While ceramics have traditionally been admired and used for their mechanical, thermal and chemical stability, their unique electrical, optical and magnetic properties have become of increasing importance in many key technologies including communications, energy conversion and storage, electronics ...
