Ceramics Description and Price in Kenya

You started your morning with ceramics—and they'll dominate your day. Inside your brick, cement, and glass home, you woke to the quartz clock, washed in the tiled bathroom, breakfasted on pottery cups and bowls. Maybe you worked all day at a computer (packed with ceramic-based electronic components, like microchips, capacitors, or resistors), before heading back home for a glass of wine, gobbled down dinner from those same pottery plates, and sat in front of the liquid-crystal TV (or Gorilla glass smartphone), before heading for bed and setting the quartz clock, ready to repeat again tomorrow. Though it's far from obvious, we live in a ceramic world, just as people have for thousands of years.

What are ceramics?

Glass, tiles, pottery, porcelain, bricks, cement, diamond, and graphite—you can probably see from this little list that "ceramics" is a very broad term, and one we're going to have difficulty defining. What do all these very different materials have in common? From a chemical viewpoint, we define ceramics in terms of what they're not. So you'll find most science textbooks and dictionaries telling you ceramics are nonmetallic and inorganic solids (ones that aren't metal or based on carbon compounds); in other words, ceramics are what we're left with when we take away metals and organic materials (including wood, plastics, rubber, and anything that was once alive)

Advantages of ceramics

Most of them have high hardness hence they are used as abrasive powder and cutting tools

They have high melting point which makes them excellent refractory material

They are good thermal insulators this is another reason to use them as refractory material

They are high electric resistivity which makes them suitable to be used an insulator

They have low mass density which results in lightweight components

They are generally chemically inert which makes them durable
