Ceramics

The properties of ceramics mentioned in the text include extreme hardness, high wear resistance, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, low electrical and thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion, poor thermal shock resistance, low ductility, high elastic modulus, low toughness, low density, and high strength at elevated temperatures.

The classifications of ceramics discussed in the text include ceramic materials, glasses, clay, refractories products, abrasives, cements, and advanced ceramics such as optical ceramics, whiteware, bricks for high temperatures, sandpaper, composites, composite structural materials, and household items like containers and sensors.

Ceramics are used as refractories, which are materials used at high temperatures such as in furnaces, rotors, cutting tools, valves, bearings, and household items.
