Setting the standards: How standards enhance quality and promote reliability

In this fifth issue of Ceramic & Glass Manufacturing, we look at how standards enhance quality and promote reliability.

The main story features interviews with William Headrick (Missouri Refractories director of R&D) and Mohsen Seifi (ASTM International director of additive manufacturing). It is followed by a short list of standards-developing organizations.

In an accompanying article, Japan Fine Ceramics Association director Hirofumi Takemura reviews the contributions of JFCA to fine ceramic standardizations and provides a look at upcoming activities and events.

The latest ceramic and glass business news fill the pages of C&GM, including openings and upgrades of plants, centers, and facilities; new acquisitions and collaborations; and market trends.
