About Ceramics
Ceramics are inorganic, non-metallic materials made by the process of intense heat on materials such as alumina, clay, silicon carbide, and tungsten carbide. The composition of ceramic is harder and stiffer than steel; however, it is brittle. Ceramics can be classified based on product type, as traditional ceramics and advanced ceramics; by applications, as bricks, roof tiles and pipes, technical ceramics, refractories, table and ornamental ware, abrasives, ceramic tiles, packaging, fine art, and sanitary ware; by end-users, as housing and construction industry, industrial, medical industry, and others.
