High Tech Ceramics Industry Review
Report Highlights
INTRODUCTION
Advanced ceramic materials constitute an emerging technology with a very broad base of current and potential applications and an ever-growing list of material compositions. The applications can be categorized into structural ceramics, electronic ceramics and high performance ceramic coatings.
The 2002 High Tech Ceramics Industry Review is based upon Communications Company (BCC), Inc.'s successful monthly newsletter High Tech Ceramic News for and industry executives who need to keep abreast of the rapid technology developments and market changes, which characterize the advanced ceramic industry. The review provides an overview of the U.S. advanced ceramics industry, as well as the current and future markets for each of the advanced ceramics market segments.
The review has been assembled into different chapters as industry and market analysis, company news, processing and technologies, and a separate chapter for each of the application segments such as structural ceramics, electronic ceramics, ceramic coatings, powders and nanoceramics, fibers and composites, advanced glasses, abrasives, metrology and analysis, membranes and filters, bioceramics and high temperature superconductors. The latter chapters provide new developments, information on new products, recent patents and research abstracts, and bibliographies for each of the application segments.
The review carefully and concisely brings you all the information you need to know in research, technology developments, company news and markets. This review will be of great use to researchers, planners and sales and marketing managers with an improved understanding of the direction of the advanced ceramics industry and technology.
