Zirconium carbide (ZrC) ceramics, essential for hypersonic vehicles and next-generation nuclear systems, are notoriously difficult to sinter and are inherently brittle. Researchers have now developed ...

The use of ceramics dates back some 25,000 years, to the oldest human settlements’ use of clay vessels and sculptures. These ceramics, as well as infrastructure components such as bricks, tiles, and ...

Ceramics are versatile materials, as they’re not only known for their heat resistance, but also their strong qualities that make the materials perfect for pottery, armor, and various other consumer ...

The components of high-quality lasers can be made of many different materials. Many high-power and solid-state lasers use ceramic materials to generate a laser beam and are seen as an alternative ...

In the history of engineering ceramics applications, there have been many examples where imitated designs based on a metal’s performance have resulted in considerable failures of ceramic components.
