Advanced ceramic materials for automobile and other engines.

We work with automotive customers developing and manufacturing reliable durable and cost effective components for today s demanding high tech vehicle applications. Automotive industries rely on advanced ceramics and. They range from small components used in automotives to construction of the engines traditional ceramics however cannot be used for these applications directly. Our advanced ceramic materials offer superior dimensional stability shock resistance strength stiffness and chemical resistance across a wide range of temperatures.

Automotive ceramics advanced ceramic materials that are made into components for automobiles. The thermal and electrical properties of ceramic materials allow them to be used in a variety of sensors mechanical seals ceramic bearings and valves. Advanced ceramics materials are incorporated into automotive designs when demanding conditions require a material that is robust and reliable. Ceramic technologies for automotive industry ceramics have a wide range of applications in the current automotive industry sector.

This article reports on a study of the economics of replacing certain metallic automobile valve train components with ceramic components. Although the progress in industrial application of structural ceramics was over forecast in the last decade the materials appear to be on the cusp of application in certain automotive components.
