Modern Methods of Ceramography
October 1-3, 2012 | ASM World Headquarters, Cleveland, Ohio

The manufacturing and application of advanced ceramics requires detailed knowledge of the material. Perfect preparation of specimens is the key to correctly interpreting the quality of ceramics. This course is designed to familiarize students with the basics of materiallography as applied to ceramics. The goals are for the students to understand the basic concepts of strengthening and toughening advanced ceramics through correct interpretation of the microstructure. This course is intended to introduce you to automated polishing techniques for ceramic specimen preparation. In addition students will learn to interpret, characterize, and document ceramic microstructures. At the end the student will be able to improve the quality control or failure analysis functions within their companies. Students are strongly encouraged to bring specimens.
