The steps in production of fired ceramic articles, including powder preparation, compaction and forming, and firing, will be studied. The following list of topics will be covered: powder synthesis and ...

Most ceramics are produced by the controlled sintering of shaped powder preforms. Powders are becoming finer and purer, enabling more control over the resulting ceramic properties. Finer (colloidal) ...
