A ceramic can be an inorganic, nonmetallic[a] stable material comprising steel, nonmetal or metalloid atoms held in ionic and covalent bonds primarily. The crystallinity of ceramic materials ranges from highly oriented to semi-crystalline, and often completely amorphous (e.g., glasses). Differing crystallinity and electron consumption in the ionic and covalent bonds cause most ceramic materials to be good thermal and electric insulators (extensively investigated in ceramic anatomist). With such a huge range of possible options for the composition/structure of any ceramic (e.g. nearly all of the elements, almost all types of bonding, and all degrees of crystallinity), the breadth of the subject is huge, and identifiable characteristics (e.g. hardness, toughness, electrical conductivity, etc.) are hard to identify for the group as a whole. General properties such as high melting temperature, high hardness, poor conductivity, high moduli of elasticity, chemical resistance and low ductility will be the norm,[1] with known exceptions to each one of these rules (e.g. piezoelectric ceramics, a glass transition temperatures, superconductive ceramics, etc.). Many composites, such as carbon and fiberglass fiber content, while including ceramic materials, are not regarded as part of the ceramic family.The portrayed term "ceramic originates from the Greek word ????????? (keramikos), "of pottery" or "for pottery",[3] from ??????? (keramos), "potter's clay, tile, pottery".[4] The earliest known reference to the main "ceram-" is the Mycenaean Greek ke-ra-me-we, "employees of ceramics", written in Linear B syllabic script.[5] The word "ceramic" may be used as an adjective to describe a material, product or process, or it might be used as a noun, either singular, or, additionally, as the plural noun "ceramics".The initial ceramics created by humans were pottery things, including 27,000-year-old figurines, made from clay, either by itself or mixed with other materials like silica, solidified, sintered, in flame. Later ceramics were glazed and fired to build even, colored surfaces, lowering porosity by using glassy, amorphous ceramic coatings on top of the crystalline ceramic substrates.[7] Ceramics now include domestic, commercial and building products, as well as an array of ceramic art. Inside the 20th hundred years, new ceramic materials were developed for use in advanced ceramic executive, such just as semiconductors.Ceramic artifacts own an important role in archaeology for understanding the culture, technology and patterns of peoples of days gone by. They may be among the most common artifacts to be found at an archaeological site, generally by means of small fragments of broken pottery called sherds. Handling of collected sherds can be regular with two main types of analysis: complex and traditional.Traditional analysis will involve sorting ceramic artifacts, sherds and larger fragments into specific types based on style, composition, manufacturing and morphology. By creating these typologies you'll be able to distinguish between different cultural styles, the goal of the ceramic and technological talk about of the social people among other conclusions. In addition, by looking at stylistic changes of ceramics as time passes is it possible to separate (seriate) the ceramics into distinct diagnostic groups (assemblages). A comparison of ceramic artifacts with known dated assemblages permits a chronological assignment of these bits.[13]The technical method of ceramic analysis includes a finer study of the structure of ceramic artifacts and sherds to look for the source of the materials and through this the possible production site. Key criteria are the structure of the clay and the temper used in the manufacture of the article under research: temper is a material added to the clay through the initial production level, and it is employed to aid the next drying out process. Types of temper include shell bits, granite fragments and floor sherd parts called 'grog'. Temper is determined by microscopic examination of the temper material usually. Clay identification depends upon an activity of refiring the ceramic, and assigning a color to it using Munsell Soil Color notation. By estimating both the temper and clay compositions, and locating an area where both are recognized to occur, an assignment of the material source can be made. From the foundation project of the artifact further investigations can be produced in to the site of make.
