Chemical Properties of Ceramics
The great majority of ceramic products, are highly resistant to all chemicals except hydrofluoric acid and to some extent, hot caustic solutions.
CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Chemical resistance
• The great majority of ceramic products, are highly resistant
to all chemicals except hydrofluoric acid and to some extent, hot caustic solutions.
• Organic solvents do not affect the
ceramics.
• Oxidic ceramics are completely resistant to oxidation, bes
even at very high temperatures.
•
Magnesia, zirconia, porcelain, graphite, alumina, etc., are dioresistant to
certain molten metals. They are used for to ame making crucibles and furnace
linings.
•
Ceramics like glass are employed where resistance to attack from acids, bases
and salt solutions is required.
•
Glazed porcelain is used for chemical vessels.
