Ceramic materials, with their superior properties such as mechanics, high temperature resistance, electromagnetic, and environmental durability, have made them widely utilized in various fields of human modern society. At the same time, ceramics are used as structural ceramics and functional ceramics in the period of human modern development and society.
Due to their inherent chemical bonds and microstructure, ceramics exhibit two significant drawbacks: low toughness and difficulty in processing. Low toughness can be improved through toughness technology, but the issue of difficulty in processing remains a challenge, primarily because the cost of precision processing accounts for over 70% of the entire component manufacturing expenses. Under these circumstances, processable ceramics have emerged.
Processable ceramics refer to ceramic materials that can be machined using conventional machining methods while maintaining a certain degree of accuracy. Processable ceramics offer excellent machining properties, sound-dampening capabilities, electrical insulation characteristics, as well as high-temperature and chemical corrosion resistance. They primarily feature the following:
High strength and lightweight
Ceramic materials that can be processed are harder than natural stone, more resistant to damage, and their thickness can be tailored to construction methods, aligning with the mainstream trend of modern buildings being lightweight and sturdy.
2. The colorful ceramics, produced by the agglomeration method, do not have natural stone textures (as shown by the breakage here). The agglomeration method is a technique for creating a wide range of colors, with white as the base color, paired with a rich color system. The white, beige, and gray color schemes are commonly used.
3. Excellent weather resistance and durability
The acid and alkali resistance of the ceramic that can be processed is superior to granite and marble, and being an inorganic material, it will not undergo deterioration, fading, or reduced strength even when exposed to wind, rain, and polluted air.
4. It is composed entirely of inorganic materials, offering non-aging, non-deforming properties, excellent stability against various organic solvents, and good resistance to acid and alkali corrosion.
In summary, processable ceramics, aside from having slight differences in characteristics compared to standard ceramics, offer much better processability. By utilizing appropriate cutting parameters and tool paths, effective processing of processable ceramics can be achieved.
Processable ceramics refer to ceramic materials that can be machined using traditional machining methods while maintaining a certain degree of accuracy. Processable ceramics offer excellent machining properties, vacuum performance, electrical insulation characteristics, as well as high-temperature and chemical corrosion resistance. They have the following main features:
High strength and lightweight
Ceramic materials that can be processed are harder than natural stone, less prone to damage, and their thickness can be tailored to construction methods, aligning with the mainstream trend of modern buildings being lightweight and sturdy.
2. Varying and rich colors
Processable ceramics are made by the agglomeration method, without natural stone patterns (as shown in the breakage here). The agglomeration method is a technique that allows for a wide range of colors, with white as the base color, creating a rich color system. The white, beige, and gray color families are commonly used.
3. Excellent weather resistance and durability
The acid and alkali resistance of processable ceramics is superior to granite and marble, and being an inorganic material, it will not undergo deterioration, fading, or reduced strength even when exposed to rain, wind, and polluted air.
4. It is also non-aging, non-deforming, highly stable against various organic solvents, and boasts excellent resistance to acidic and alkaline corrosion.
