Focuses on the effects of porosity and microcracking on the physical properties of ceramics, particularly nominally single phase ceramics. The book elucidates t

Porous ceramics have recently gained growing importance in industry because of their many applications like filters, absorbers, dust collectors, thermal insulat

The development of porous ceramic materials has brought a new challenge to a variety of industries because porous ceramics are more durable in severe environmen

Cellular ceramics are a specific class of porous materials which includes among others foams, honeycombs, connected fibers, robocast structures and assembled ho

Ceramic oxides typically have a combination of properties that make them attractive for many applications compared with other materials. This book attempts to c
