| Description: | Ceramics have long been recognized as one of the key materials for the 21st century because of their various unique properties which cannot be duplicated by any other existing material. In order to meet the severe requirements of a variety of key technologies, however, several shortcomings of these materials have to be circumvented. Among these, the most important are low reliability and extremely high production costs. The development of novel synthesis and processing methods is the most promising approach to removing these obstacles and fulfilling future needs. This volume is intended to provide a survey of the latest development in the novel synthesis and processing of key ceramics such as silicon nitride, SIALON, zirconia, alumina, aluminum nitride and silicon carbide. 1. Fundamentals. 2. Synthesis of Powder and Ceramics. 3. Forming . 4. Sintering. 5. Structure and Properties. 6. Interface and Thin Films. 7. Composites. |
