They are usually crystalline in nature (the atoms are arranged in a systematic way), and compounds between metallic and nonmetallic elements such as aluminum and oxygen (alumina, Al2O3), calcium and oxygen (calcium oxide, CaO) , silicon and nitrogen (silicon nitride Si3N4) and so on.
Several “advanced ceramics” will be the combination of high purity chemicals to the desired shape, then the heat produced at high temperatures. Ceramic products in the form and can have many properties such as heat resistance, hardness, strength, low electrical conductivity and unique electro-mechanical properties.
