Course description and aims
The properties of the ceramic (the inorganic) materials are strongly affected by the fabrication procedure (processing) compared with that of other materials (the organic materials and the metals). This course provides the basic knowledge of the ceramic processing. The typical fabrication methods are explained in the first two lectures, and in the the rest lectures, the ceramic powder sintering which is most important fabrication method will be explained from the ceramic powder synthesis to the sintering process.
Student learning outcomes
At the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Have the brief understanding of the series of the elemental process those constructs the production of sintered ceramics.
2) Have the deep understandings of the contents of the lectures those give the basic knowledge to the elemental process.
3) Design the process of making objective sintered ceramics by the students.
Keywords
Ceramic Processing, Ceramic powder synthesis, Dispersion of powder, Forming of powder, Sintering
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | ✔ Critical thinking skills | Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Class flow
Unit process of the ceramic processing through the sintering will be taught in 2 or 3 lectures. Exercise problems will be given. Attendance is taken in every class.
