  2. Mineral wool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_wool

    Mineral wool is also known as mineral cotton, mineral fiber, man-made mineral fiber (MMMF), and man-made vitreous fiber (MMVF). Specific mineral wool products are stone wool and slag wool. Europe [who?] also includes glass wool which, together with ceramic fiber, are entirely artificial fibers that can be made into different shapes and are ...

  3. 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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulexite

    Ulexite (/ juː ˈ l ɛ k s aɪ t /) sometimes called TV rock or TV stone due to its unusual optical properties, is a hydrous borate hydroxide of sodium and calcium with the chemical formula NaCaB 5 O 6 (OH) 6 ·5H 2 O. The mineral occurs as silky white rounded crystalline masses or in parallel fibers.

  8. Ceramic art - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_art

    Most traditional ceramic products were made from clay (or clay mixed with other materials), shaped and subjected to heat, and tableware and decorative ceramics are generally still made this way. In modern ceramic engineering usage, ceramics is the art and science of making objects from inorganic, non-metallic materials by the action of heat.

  9. Ceramic matrix composite - Wikipedia
