![Page 6: Ch141.91(MSE101) Project](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102322/55531579b4c90575768b45b9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
widely used ceramic raw material
inexpensive ingredient
found naturally in great abundance
used as mined without any upgrading of quality
CLAY

• forms a plastic mass that is very amenable to shaping when mixed with water in proper proportions
• dried, and then fired at an elevated temperature to improve its mechanical strength
CLAY

STRUCTURAL CLAY PRODUCTS
![Page 9: Ch141.91(MSE101) Project](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102322/55531579b4c90575768b45b9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
STRUCTURAL CLAYSpecifications for raw materials used in most structural clay products: Plastic enough for shaping Dry without excessive cracking and
warping Have low and wide vitrification range Low carbonate content Have a spread in particle size Contain non-clay constituents
![Page 10: Ch141.91(MSE101) Project](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102322/55531579b4c90575768b45b9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
include building bricks, tiles, and sewer pipes used in applications in which structural integrity is
important (resistant to mechanical and chemical stress)
proportions above are often found directly in shale deposits, so that blending is often not necessary.
STRUCTURAL CLAY
![Page 11: Ch141.91(MSE101) Project](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102322/55531579b4c90575768b45b9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
made from 35 -55% clays or argillaceous (clayey) shales, 25-45% quartz, and 25-55% feldspar clay portion acts as a former, providing shaping ability quartz (silica) serves as a filler, providing strength to
the formed object feldspar serves as a fluxing agent, lowering the
melting temperatures of the clay and quartz during firing
STRUCTURAL CLAY
![Page 12: Ch141.91(MSE101) Project](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102322/55531579b4c90575768b45b9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
properties determined by particle size, firing temperature, and ultimate microstructure coarser filler particles are used, and lower firing
temperatures are employed—typically in the range of 1,050° to 1,100° C
Resulting microstructure: large secondary particles in a matrix of fine-grained mullite and glass—all containing a substantial volume of large pores.
STRUCTURAL CLAY
![Page 13: Ch141.91(MSE101) Project](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102322/55531579b4c90575768b45b9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Because of the presence of large and small particles in their microstructures, fired clay products have relatively high compressive strengths – good for structural applications if underfired: low strength and poor resistance to frost
and freezing, due to small pores in the clay regions If overfired: ware has too much glass; it is strong but
brittle and is susceptible to failure under mechanical and thermal stress.

STRUCTURE
Principle Construction of Coated Abrasives (cloth backing)
The surface structure should contain some porosity; a continual flow of air currents or liquid coolants within the pores that surround the refractory grains prevents excessive heating.

Made of BaTiO3, ZnO, lead zirconate titanate [Pb(ZrxTi1−x)O3], AlN, and HTSCs
Applications are capacitor dielectrics, varistors, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), substrates, and packages for integrated circuits
Coatings and Films modify surface properties of a material may be for economic reasons (i.e. diamond
coating) in some cases, may improve material performance

TYPES Bioceramics
Used in the human body Response varies from
Nearly inert bioceramics: include Al2O3 and ZrO2
Bioactive ceramics: include hydroxyapatite and some special glass and glass–ceramic formulations.
Resorbable bioceramics: Tricalcium phosphate (dissolves in the body)

APPLICATIONS Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS)
Miniature “smart” systems Made up of many mechanical devices integrated
with a large number of electrical elements on a substrate of silicon
Can detect and react to changes in its environment using its microsensors, microactuators and mircoelectric components
![Page 65: Ch141.91(MSE101) Project](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102322/55531579b4c90575768b45b9/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
APPLICATIONS Studies are being made on the use of ceramics Limitations of silicon in MEMS
low fracture toughness relatively low softening temperature highly active to the presence of water and oxygen
Ceramic materials are being considered because they are tougher, more refractory and more inert amorphous silicon carbonitrides (silicon carbide–
silicon nitride alloys) made from metal organic precursors are currently being studied

APPLICATIONS Accelerometer in cars used in the
deployment of air-bag systems smaller, lighter, more reliable and less
expensive than conventional air-bags system Other possible MEMS application are:
electronic displays and data storage units energy conversion devices chemical detectors (for hazardous chemical
and biological agents, and drug screening) microsystems for DNA amplification and
identification

APPLICATIONS Optical Fibers
Critical component in our modern optical communications systems
signal transmission is photonic, instead of electronic: uses electromagnetic radiation improved speed of transmission,
information density, and transmission distance
reduction in error rate no electromagnetic interference

APPLICATIONS Ceramic Ball Bearings
A bearing consists of balls and races that are in contact with and rub against one another when in use traditionally made of bearing steels that are
very hard, extremely corrosion resistant and may be polished to a very smooth surface
Silicon nitride (Si3N4) balls have begun replacing steel balls in a number of applications Hybrid bearing
![Page 69: Ch141.91(MSE101) Project](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102322/55531579b4c90575768b45b9/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
APPLICATIONS Hybrid Bearings
Races are still made of steel Better tensile strength than silicon nitride
Balls are made of silicon nitride Lower density: hybrid bearing is lighter
enabling higher operation speeds Higher modulus of elasticity: more rigid and
less prone to deformations when in use so there is a reduction in noise and vibration levels

Piezoelectric Ceramics Exhibit the unusual phenomenon of
piezoelectricity electric polarization (i.e., an electric field or
voltage) is induced in the ceramic crystal when a mechanical strain is imposed on it and vice-versa
Piezoelectric ceramics include BaTiO3, PbTiO3, lead zirconate–titanate (PZT) [Pb(Zr,Ti)O3], potassium niobate (KNbO3)
