Friction materials are substances that produce friction between solid surfaces in order to control or stop forward or backward motion. The materials used to produce friction materials include organic and non-organic substances such as resin, ceramics...
Alumina ceramic is an industrial ceramic that has high hardness, is long wearing, and can only be formed by diamond grinding. It is manufactured from bauxite and can be shaped using injection molding, die pressing, isostatic pressing, slip casting, and extrusion...
A ceramic insulator is a non-conductive insulator made from red, brown, or white porous clay that provides a bridge between electronic components and has high dielectric strength and constant and low electrical loss. They are easy to maintain and...
Glass cutting is a method of weakening the structure of glass along a score line that can be broken by applying controlled force; this separates the glass into two sections along the score line or fissure. Regardless of the application, the cutting of glass is...
Ceramic machining refers to the manufacture of ceramic materials into finished usable products. Machining involves the continual removal of material from the workpiece, in this case, ceramic material...
Zirconia Ceramics, or zirconium dioxide ceramics, are exceptionally strong technical ceramic materials with excellent hardness, toughness, and corrosion resistance without the brittleness common to other ceramic materials...
Quartz is one of the most abundant and widely distributed minerals in nature. Quartz is the only stable polymorph of crystalline silica on the Earth‘s surface. It is found in all forms of rocks: igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary. It becomes concentrated in...
Epoxy: Epoxy glue is a thermosetting adhesive made up of a resin or epoxy polymer and a hardener that is used to adhere or join a range of surfaces together with a strong, permanent, and robust bond that can...
Hot melt adhesives are also known as glue adhesives. They are thermoplastic polymer adhesives that are solid at room temperature. Hot melt adhesives liquefy if heated to a temperature above their softening point...
