Zusammenfassung:All Refractories Are Ceramics but Not All Ceramics Are RefractoriesCeramics and refractories cover a wide range of fields and applications, and their relevance can be traced as far back as 24,000 BC to the first man-made piece of earthenware, and as recently as the late 1900s when ceramics and ceramic matrix composites were developed to withstand ultra-high temperatures. Beginning with a detailed history of ceramics, An Introduction to Ceramics and Refractories examines every aspect of ceramics and refractories, and explores the connection between them. The book establishes refractories as a class of ceramics with high fusion points, introduces the fundamentals of refractories and ceramics, and also addresses several applications for each.Understand Ceramic Properties and Refractory BehaviorThe book details applications for natural and synthetic ceramics, as well as traditional and engineering applications.
It focuses on the various thermal and thermo-mechanical properties of ceramics, classifies refractories, describes the principles of thermodynamics as applied to refractories, and highlights new developments and applications in the ceramic and refractory fields.
It also presents end-of-chapter problems and a relevant case study.Divided into three sections, this text: Introduces and details the applications of ceramics and refractoriesDiscusses the selection of materials and the two stages in selectionDescribes the phase equilibriums in ceramic and refractory systemsOutlines the three important systems: unary, binary, and ternaryConsiders corrosion of ceramics and refractories, failures in ceramics and refractories, and the design aspectsAddresses bonding, structures of ceramics, defects in ceramics, and ceramics’ microstructuresCovers the production of ceramic powders starting from the raw materialsExplains four forming methodsHighlights three types of thermal treatmentsDefines mechanical properties, and thermal and thermo-mechanical propertiesClassifies materials and designates classesAddressing topics that include corrosion, applications, thermal properties, and types of refractories,
