Ceramics are nonmetallic, inorganic materials typically formed as
powders and often sintered into useful forms. They encompass a wide Activated charcoal
range of structures from amorphous to polycrystalline or even single (Charcoal activated)
crystals. They are typically very hard but rigid, and tend to break under CAS No. 7440-44-0
