Ceramics are inorganic, non metallic materials formed using heat. Examples include bricks, clay pots, porcelain, titanium carbide, silicon carbide, ect. If you googled 'examples of ceramics' you would be sure to find many examples.

What are the characteristics of ceramics?
Physical properties means the behavior of materials in response to physical forces other than mechanical, such as; Volumetric, thermal, electric and electrochemical properties. Most Ceramics are lighter than metals but heavier than polymers. Most ceramics have a higher melting point than most metals as it is that some ceramics such as China can with stand high temperatures to about 1200 degrees centigrade. Ceramics also has lower Electrical and Thermal Conductivity than most metals but the range of value is greater in ceramics permitting some ceramics to be used as insulators, for example Porcelain insulators and others as conductors like Lithium-ion conducting glass-ceramics and oxide ceramics. Thermal expansion is another physical property of ceramics, Ceramic thermal expansion coefficients are less than those of metals but effects are more damaging in ceramics bringing about cracks and other failures(Thermal shock and thermal cracking) as for ceramic materials with relatively high thermal expansion and low thermal conductivity however there is glass ceramics that has low thermal expansion thus resisting thermal shock and thermal cracking, for example Pyrex glass ceramics. Thus the physical properties being but not limited to permeability, elasticity, considerable strength, hardness, brittleness, resistance to chemical attack and thermal shock.
