3. Manufacturing processes for transparent ceramics

3.1 Zero defects" objective and associated processes

Ceramics are generally obtained from compacted powders and high-temperature treatment, without however reaching fusion temperature, to make the material dense. . As a general rule, the implementation of a ceramic process requires mastery of the following stages: powder synthesis, shaping and heat treatment or sintering (figure 10 ).
