Notes:
Conclusion Advanced performance ceramics have shown dramatic accomplishments during the past ten to fifteen years. Many new exciting properties and applications have developed. Fundamentally new material properties and behaviors have resulted with a number of exciting new applications. Expectations exceeded realistic evaluations of progress during the past decade although many of the target properties of elevated temperature performance, strength, toughness and non-catastrophic failure have been realized. The commercialization of advanced structural ceramics leads the general rate of economic growth, and appears to have a bright future as current stress on commercialization drives not just further materials development, but also standards of design and material selection.
