Although ceramics have been known to mankind literally for
millennia, research has never ceased. Apart from the classic uses
as a bulk material in pottery, construction, and decoration, the
latter half of the twentieth century saw an explosive growth of
application fields, such as electrical and thermal insulators,
wear-resistant bearings, surface coatings, lightweight armour, or
aerospace materials. In addition to plain, hard solids, modern
ceramics come in many new guises such as fabrics, ultrathin films,
microstructures and hybrid composites.
Built on the solid foundations laid down by the 20-volume series
Materials Science and Technology, Ceramics Science and Technology
picks out this exciting material class and illuminates it from all
sides.
Materials scientists, engineers, chemists, biochemists,
physicists and medical researchers alike will find this work a
treasure trove for a wide range of ceramics knowledge from theory
and fundamentals to practical approaches and problem solutions.
