Summary

The course is focused on obtaining a basic overview of traditional and refractory ceramic materials. Attention is paid to the basic characteristics of ceramic materials and to the systems of raw materials for their production. The course presents the characteristics and properties of ceramic materials, including the processes of their shaping and another stages of ceramics production technology. Part of the subject is a brief characteristic of the properties and application of traditional and refractory ceramic materials in practice, especially for energetic purpose
