Introduction
- One chief concern in the application of ceramic is fabrication.
- Brittleness of these materials in most instances precludes
deformation.

chamber.
Glass
- Fibers are formed by drawing the molten glass
through many small orifices at the chamber base.
Hydro Plastic Forming
- Clay minerals, when mixed with water, become highly plastic
and pliable and may be molded without cracking; however,
they have extremely low yield strengths.
- Stiff plastic ceramic mass is forced through a die orifice

- Extruding this mass Brick, Pipe, Ceramic Block and Tiles are
commonly fabricated.
- Dry and fire the formed piece.
Slip Casting
- A slip (suspension of clay and other minerals in water) is
poured into a porous mold. As water is absorbed into
the mold, a solid layer is deposited on the inside of the
mold wall.
- Art objects, and specialized scientific laboratory ware

Tape Casting
- A thin sheet of ceramic of uniform thickness is formed
from a slip that is spread onto a flat surface using a
doctor blade. This tape is then subjected to drying and
firing operations.
- Thin sheet is cast as flexible tape, which is used for

Cementation
-The cement material, when mixed with water, forms a
paste that, after being fashioned into a desired shape,
subsequently hardens as a result of complex chemical
reactions.

-The process by which cement hardens is not one of
drying, but rather of hydration in which water actually
participates in a chemical bonding reaction.
Summary
- The processing of ceramics follows the basic steps that
have been used for ages to make clay products.
- The materials are selected, prepared, formed into a
desired shape.

- The fabrication are classified into three categories

Glass Forming (Pressing, Blowing and Drawing)
Particulate Forming (Hydro Plastic, Slip and Tape Casting)
Cementation
- Glasses are processed by pouring into molten shape,
working into shape when hot, and then cooling.
- Ceramics has also advanced in clay pottery due to fabrications.
- Hence, ceramics are our window to the future.
