Ceramic materials are renowned for their unique properties including high compressive strength, thermal insulation and chemical stability, yet they are inherently brittle. Advances in materials ...
Compared to metal and polymer-based materials, ceramics can better withstand high temperatures and corrosive environments, but their brittle nature often makes them susceptible to breakage. This ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue researchers have observed a way that the brittle nature of ceramics can be overcome as they sustain heavy loads, leading to more resilient structures such as aircraft ...
New research shows that in the important ceramic material silicon carbide, carbon atoms collect at those grain boundaries when the material is exposed to radiation. The finding could help engineers ...
Our research in refractory ceramics encompasses developing new non-toxic materials for furnace linings for steel and other industrial manufacturing sectors and delving into the fundamental ...
Precision Ceramics, a division of McGeoch Technology, is a company dedicated to the engineering of technical ceramics. From procurement and supply through to technical design and specialist machining, ...

A new technique from Purdue University is designed to improve missiles, engines and drinking glasses made from ceramic materials. (Stock photo) Something as simple as an electric field could soon make ...
This review proposes to achieve the targeted development and fabrication of high-performance high-temperature electromagnetic shielding ceramics through microstructural engineering, additive ...
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 ...
Alfred University offers MS and PhD degrees in Materials Science and Engineering (MSE). The MS program emphasizes hands-on studies that enable graduates to readily move into careers ranging from ...
Ceramics are resilient to heat and extreme environments but they are fragile and crack easily. Researchers have discovered a self-healing mechanism within a type of ceramics, called MAX phases. They ...
