Engineering Ceramics

Hello sir, I am Pappu Gandhi. I am from Delhi. I want you to help me by giving me some information about the Ceramics engineering and also list some of the good colleges providing ceramic engineering course in India. Can you help me?

[Shaleen]

Ceramic engineering is the science and technology of creating objects from
inorganic, non-metallic materials.

This is done either by the action of heat, or at lower temperatures using
precipitation reactions from high-purity chemical solutions.

The term includes the purification of raw materials, the study and production
of the chemical compounds concerned, their formation into components and
the study of their structure, composition and properties.


Ceramic materials may have a crystalline or partly crystalline structure, with long-range order on atomic scale.

Glass ceramics may have an amorphous or glassy structure, with limited or
short-range atomic order.

They are either formed from a molten mass that solidifies on cooling, formed
and matured by the action of heat, or chemically synthesized at low
temperatures using, for example, hydrothermal or sol-gel synthesis.
