Ceramics lab course

The ceramics lab consists of a series of experimental settings
experiment 1: Stability of ceramic suspensions and determination of particle sizes
experiment 2: Density measurements in porous materials
experiment 3: Resistance and ductility of ceramic materials
experiment 4: Flow characteristics of ceramic suspensions
experiment 5: Invesitgation of flow characteristics of ceramic injection molding and extrusion materials

The students will be able to perform specific experiments for the characterization of basic ceramical properties.

The course will be completed by a module exam.
