Synthetic sapphire – single-crystal aluminum oxide (sapphire – Al 2 O 3) is a transparent ceramic. Transparent ceramics have recently acquired a high degree of interest and notoriety.
The American Ceramic Society (ACerS) is a nonprofit organization of professionals for the ceramics community, with a focus on scientific research, emerging technologies, and applications in which ceramic materials are an element. [2] ACerS is located in Westerville, Ohio.
The Journal of the American Ceramic Society is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal published on behalf of the American Ceramic Society by Wiley-Blackwell. It was established in 1918 and is edited by John C. Mauro. Publishing formats include full length original research, communications (rapid publishing), feature articles, and review ...
James Charles Phillips (born March 9, 1933) is an American physicist and a member of the National Academy of Sciences (1978). Phillips invented the exact theory of the ionicity of chemical bonding in semiconductors, as well as new theories of compacted networks (including glasses, high temperature superconductors, and proteins).
The Journal of the European Ceramic Society is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Elsevier on behalf of the European Ceramic Society. It covers research related to conventional categories of ceramic : structural, functional, traditional or composite.
Rigidity theory, or topological constraint theory, is a tool for predicting properties of complex networks (such as glasses) based on their composition.It was introduced by James Charles Phillips in 1979 [1] and 1981, [2] and refined by Michael Thorpe in 1983. [3]
The CeramTec Group is a developer and manufacturer of products and components made of technical ceramics (also known as advanced technical ceramics). The products are marketed through its own sales companies, among others.
Ultra-high-temperature ceramics (UHTCs) are a type of refractory ceramics that can withstand extremely high temperatures without degrading, often above 2,000 °C. [1] They also often have high thermal conductivities and are highly resistant to thermal shock, meaning they can withstand sudden and extreme changes in temperature without cracking or breaking.
