An Overview of Common Structural Ceramics and Their Application Areas
Author:
Advanced ceramics can be classified into structural ceramics and functional ceramics. Functional ceramics are primarily characterized by their specialized properties, such as electrical, magnetic, biological, thermosensitive, and optical characteristics. They include insulating and dielectric ceramics, ferroelectric ceramics, piezoelectric ceramics, semiconductors, and sensitive ceramics, among others. Structural ceramics, on the other hand, are designed for mechanical and structural applications, offering high strength, hardness, excellent resistance to high temperatures, corrosion, and oxidation. They are widely used in cutting tools, molds, wear-resistant components, pump and valve parts, engine components, heat exchangers, biomedical devices, and armor systems. Common materials include silicon nitride, silicon carbide, zirconium dioxide, boron carbide, titanium diboride, aluminum oxide, and sialon. ▼ Advanced Structural Ceramic Products and Their Applications Functional ceramics are often unseen yet indispensable, whereas some structural ceramic products may be more familiar to us. Today, let’s take a look at commonly used structural ceramic products: what are their key features, and how are they applied?
