MATERIALS ADVISORY BOARD REPORT ON CERAMIC PROCESSING.

Abstract

Full utilization of the potential of ceramic materials in defense systems has been retarded both by the lack of basic information and by the lack of reproducibility, reliability, and uniformity which has accompanied transfer from the laboratory to production. These difficulties are attributed to the lag of the science of processing behind the science of ceramic materials. To close this gap it is recommended that selected topics in research, empirical development, and studies of scale-up in numbers and size be supported independently of end-item contracts. Specific areas for study have been indentified and listed in report. (Author)
