Metal-Reinforced Ceramics

About this book

Metal-Reinforced Ceramics covers the principle of metal-fiber-reinforced ceramics, a well-known topic in the field of reinforced concrete. Much of the work that has been done has remained unpublished, hidden in industrial company archives due to the commercial sensitivity associated with the respective technologies that prevailed at the time, which no longer applies today. This book will discuss advanced technologies that have largely been undocumented before in a broad range of industrial application areas, with updates on alumina, silicon carbide, boron carbide, tungsten carbide, fused silica, and carbon-based ceramics which are hard, heat resistant, wear resistant, and chemically durable.- Provides detailed information on fundamental principles, advanced processing technologies and industrial applications- Features comprehensive industrial knowledge not usually in the public domain from the author's experience spanning more than three decades- Features armor ceramics, bioceramics, aerospace, mining and architectural ceramic applications
