Abstract
Ceramics are in general compounds of non-metallic and metallic elements, including carbides, oxides, and nitrides. They are known for higher insulation, resistance to corrosion and environmental conditions, and capable of withstanding high temperatures. Unlike metals, ceramics materials generally display greater stiffness, lower electrical and thermal conductivity, and lower fracture toughness.
