Ceramics fits into heat and temperature in a way that the majority of ceramics have to be heated to gain the strength and durability as needed, and where there is heat there is temperature. Also because some ceramics are used for heat insulating for example the fire bricks or refractory bricks that are used to build kilns and fire places because they can with stand high temperatures while heating or firing.

Is ceramics a good heat conductor?

Ceramics are generally poor heat conductors compared to metals. This is because ceramics tend to be insulators, which means they are less efficient at conducting heat. However, there are some ceramics that have been engineered to have better heat conduction properties for specific applications.

How does a kiln work to fire ceramics and pottery?

A kiln is a special oven used to heat ceramics and pottery at high temperatures. The kiln gradually increases the temperature to remove any moisture and then reaches a peak temperature to harden the clay and glazes. This process, called firing, transforms the raw materials into a durable finished product.

Can electricity pass through ceramics?

Yes, electricity can pass through ceramics. Ceramics are typically insulating materials, but certain types, such as piezoelectric and ferroelectric ceramics, exhibit conductive properties when subjected to changes in pressure or temperature. These ceramics can conduct electricity due to the movement of charged particles within their structures.
