Advanced ceramics are extensively used in wear-related situations and high-temperatures because of their particular chemical and physical properties. Recently, there has been an increase in the demand for advanced ceramics across the world due to their wide range of applications, such as dentistry, aerospace, cutting tools, and more. Nowadays, a large variety of additive manufacturing techniques have been successfully used to fabricate ceramics with significantly improved properties and functionality compared to traditional ceramics.
The focus of this book is on linking synthesis methods of ceramic, their properties to their compositions and structures, and their applications described hierarchically from an atomic level onward. Covering topics such as 3D printing ceramics, bio ceramics, and optical ceramics, this book is an essential resource for academicians, researchers, PhD students, and practitioners in the field of material sciences, mechanics, chemistry, biology, physics, or related fields.
