Introduction

Ceramic engineering is the science and technology of creating objects from inorganic, non-metallic materials. Ceramic materials are crystalline or partly crystalline structures that are formed from a molten mass that becomes solid upon cooling.

Ceramics are heat resistant which make them useful in tasks where materials like metals and plastics are not suitable. This special character of ceramic materials makes them useful in applications in materials engineering, electrical engineering, chemical engineering and mechanical engineering.

Ceramics are very useful in a wide range of industries including:

  • Medicine
  • Refinery
  • Electronics
  • Mining
  • Aerospace
  • Chemical science
