Introduction in Ceramic Technologies

A broad definition of ceramic is any inorganic, nonmetallic material. In other words, any solid material that is not a plastic or a metal can be defined as a ceramic.

High Density Ceramic

Today’s fine ceramics provide excellent solutions to tough engineering challenges; they excel where traditional materials fall short. Thanks to the reproducibility of our manufacturing processes, these multipurpose materials can be produced in an economical manner in a wide variety of shapes and quantities.

Advanced ceramics usually have good mechanical properties, a low density, a high hardness and a high wear resistance. However, they remain fragile, a characteristic which can easily be overcome in most of the case by a proper design.
