Traditional Ceramics

  • Ball clay, China clay, Feldspar, Silica, Dolomite, Talc, Calcite and Nepheline are the common materials used for most of the ceramic products. Each raw material contributes a certain property such as dry strength, plasticity, shrinkage, etc. to the ceramic body. Therefore, by careful selection of materials, desired properties are acquired for the final output. Powder preparation is a major consideration in the ceramic industry. Surface area, particle size and distribution, particle shape, density, etc. each have their own effect on production. Powder has to be prepared to meet required particle size, particle shape, and other requirements for a particular industry. Milling is done to get the desired particle size. Unlike in the ,advanced ceramics industry the purity of ceramic powder is not an issue in traditional ceramics.

What are ceramics? Glass, tiles, pottery, porcelain, bricks, cement, diamond, and graphite—you can probably see from this little list that "ceramics" is a very broad term, and one we're going to have difficulty defining. What do all these very different materials have in common? From a chemical viewpoint, we define ceramics in terms of what they're not. So you'll find most science textbooks and dictionaries telling you ceramics are nonmetallic and inorganic solids (ones that aren't metal or based on carbon compounds); in other words, ceramics are what we're left with when we take away metals and organic materials (including wood , plastics , rubber , and anything that was once alive).

Short about Ceramic Design The Master’s degree programme in Ceramic Design is a specialisation in the use of silica-based materials such as clay, concrete, plaster and glass as ceramic materials in various professional contexts. The overall objective of the programme is to prepare students for careers as ceramic designers through independent specialisation in relation to research, artistic research practice and in relevant practical and professional contexts. The objective of the programme is to expand the student’s understanding of specific ceramic materials and working processes on the basis of their own chosen specialisation, and further to support the development of their personal artistic profile under the guidance of the programme’s teachers.
