Encyclopedia of Materials: Technical Ceramics and Glasses is an essential resource guide for students (undergraduate and postgraduate), as well as postdoctoral researchers and those working in product and process development. The book covers everything from the types, structures, mechanics and properties of ceramics and glasses, to the testing, characterization, modeling and applications of these materials. Important recent developments are also discussed, including additive manufacturing methods, polymer derived ceramics, advanced sintering / densification methods, modern analytical and testing methods, and novel applications of ceramics.
