Advanced Flexible Ceramics: Design, Properties, Manufacturing, and Emerging Applications

This volume focuses on the design, properties, manufacturing, and emerging technological applications of advanced flexible ceramics. Ceramics and their composites are used in many different application fields. However, their flexibility, processability, and multifunctional ability are practically limited to their specific application field. For example in electronic equipment and high-temperature applications, failure of miniaturized materials is a huge problem mainly due to their low fusing temperature, so In order to enhance the working temperature of these materials the researcher needs to use ceramic materials, but you still have the problem of brittle fracture and catastrophic failure. This brand-new volume provides detailed information on the properties and applications of advanced flexible ceramics. Key elements that are discussed are materials dependent flexible behavior; and important parameters such as microstructure and phases and how they will provide new direction for various applications, as well as the operational life of the ceramic. How flexible materials can influence smart behaviour (shape memory and self-healing) is also discussed in detail as well as thermal, physical, mechanical, electrical, and optical properties too. Various processing routes such as powder metallurgy, both physical and chemical vapor deposition, sol-gel, 3D print, and roll-to-roll processing are also explained in detail. The later section of the book provides detailed coverage of emerging technological applications. Additional chapters are also included on cost-effectiveness and the global market, recycling and future challenges and perspectives. Comprehensive in its coverage, Advanced Flexible Ceramics: Design, Properties, Manufacturing and Emerging Applications will be an essential reference resource for academic and industrial researchers working in the fields of refractory linings, high-temperature equipment, shielding, MEMS/NEMS and semiconductors, energy generation and storage, catalysis and environmental remediation, wearable textiles, transport, and biomedicine.
