MAX Phases and Ultra-High Temperature Ceramics for Extreme Environments

Ceramics are a versatile material, more so than is widely known.\n\nThey are thermal resistant, poor electrical conductors, insulators against nuclear radiation, and not easily damaged, making ceramics a key component in many industrial processes. MAX Phases and Ultra-High Temperature Ceramics for Extreme Environments investigates a new class of ultra-durable ceramic materials,explore recent advances in the manufacturing of ceramic materials that improve their durability and other physical properties, enhancing their overall usability and cost-effectiveness. This book will be of primary use to researchers, academics, and practitioners in chemical, mechanical, and electrical engineering. This book is part of the Research Essentials collection.MAX Phases and Ultra-High Temperature Ceramics for Extreme Environments is written by I. M. Low and published by Engineering'science Reference.
