Advanced Ceramics

So many things have been changed with the new subjects. I am creating a new enthusiasm towards the field of ceramics, because of some attractive things I gather from studies. Advanced is one of the great field in which I would love to wander.

What are advanced ceramics?
We have dealt with lot of traditional ceramics. Even in our old houses, we can find number of traditional ceramic applications such as jugs, sources and cups, pots, etc...

With the development of new technologies including micro and nano technologies, the applications of ceramics became more advanced. Since, past few decades, they have been using for various applications.

Applications of advanced ceramics?
These are ceramics, which are used for engineering applications with high accuracy. These can be categorized into various areas according to the application.
1. Electroceramcis
* Capacitor dielectric
* Piezoelectric ceramics
* Magnetic ceramics
* Optical ceramics
* Conductive ceramics
* Electronic substrate and package ceramics
2. Advanced structural ceramics
* Nuclear ceramics
* Bioceramics
* Wear-resistant ceramics
* Automotive ceramics

There will be more details in near future on the blog

-cheers
