Silicate Ceramics
The production of oxide material is the largest of all the ceramics
production. Oxides dominate application in the areas of electronics and
refractories. The applications of oxide ceramics depend on an array of
different properties: electrical properties (either as passive or active
components); thermal properties (ceramic fiber insulation and
refractories); corrosion resistance (refractories, whitewares); and
mechanical properties (structural ceramics such as zirconia toughened
oxides, and structural clay products). One class of oxide ceramics is
silicate ceramics. SiO2, silica, may seem like the simplest of the silicates.
However, it is a remarkably complex material. There are six
acknowledged equilibrium polymorphs of silica depending on temperature
and pressure. One form of SiO2 is the substance known as quartz
.
Quartz is formed when the tetrahedra in this material are arranged in a
regular, orderly fashion. If silica in the molten state is cooled very slowly
it crystallizes at the freezing point. But if molten silica is cooled more
rapidly, the resulting solid is a disorderly arrangement which is called
glass. The temperature at which molten silica turns into a glass is called
the glass transition temperature and this depends on the rate of cooling
from the molten material. Silica is the basic ingredient of most glasses.
