From tradition to innovation, ceramic materials redefined
Mention of “ceramics”, many people first think of household porcelain or works of art, but in modern industry, ceramics is no longer a fragile daily necessities, but to support the high-end manufacturing of functional engineering materials.
Today's new ceramic materials are widely used in electronics, semiconductors, aerospace, new energy, medical and other fields due to their excellent mechanical properties, thermal stability and insulating properties.
As a representative enterprise in the field of advanced ceramic manufacturing, ZhiHao ceramics has always been committed to the research and development of new ceramic materials, manufacturing and application of innovation, to technical strength to promote the high-end transformation of China's manufacturing industry.

What material is ceramic made of?
To understand new ceramics, you first need to know what materials ceramics are made of.
While traditional ceramics use natural clay, feldspar and quartz as the main raw materials, modern industrial ceramics use high purity inorganic powders such as:
| Ceramic raw materials | chemical composition | specificities |
| Aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) | aluminum oxide | High hardness, abrasion resistance, and good insulation properties |
| Zirconium oxide (ZrO₂) | zirconium oxide | High toughness, corrosion resistance, smooth surface |
| Aluminum Nitride (AlN) | Aluminum nitride | High thermal conductivity and superior insulation |
| Silicon Carbide (SiC) | silicon carbide | High strength, high temperature and corrosion resistance |
| Silicon Nitride (Si₃N₄) | silicon nitride | Low thermal expansion, good thermal shock resistance |
These high-performance powders are molded, sintered, and precision CNC machined to become the core material for the production of Good Ceramics.
This means that ceramics is an inorganic non-metallic material, but its physical and chemical properties go far beyond the traditional concept of “porcelain”.

New Ceramics vs Traditional Ceramics
The difference between traditional ceramics and new ceramics is the core embodiment of modern manufacturing upgrade.
The table below clearly demonstrates the main differences between the two:
| comparison dimension | Traditional Ceramics | New Ceramics |
| Raw material sources | Natural clay, quartz | High purity oxide, nitride, carbide powders |
| Manufacturing process | Ordinary Firing | High temperature and high pressure sintering, vacuum environment |
| Density and strength | relatively low | High density, high strength |
| Functional characteristics | Decorative or structural oriented | Thermal conductivity, insulation, abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance |
| Application Areas | Daily use, construction | Industrial, Electronics, Aerospace, Medical |
| Machining precision | lower (one's head) | Up to micron-level CNC accuracy |
| Customizability | constraints | Customized formulas are available upon request |
In short, traditional ceramics are household items, while new ceramics are industrial core materials.
ZhiHao Ceramics is the representative enterprise to promote this technological leap, through innovative materials and precision processing, so that ceramics become the key support for future industry.
Ceramic materials innovation: from powder to performance breakthroughs
The core of ceramic material innovation lies in the optimization of powder engineering and sintering technology.
So what is ceramic powder made of?
Ceramic powder is a high-purity inorganic powder that directly affects the density and mechanical properties of the final ceramic by controlling the particle size, crystal structure and dispersion.
Through the self-developed ultra-fine powder classification and sintering technology, the density of ceramics is increased to >99.5%, which significantly improves the strength and surface quality of the products.
In addition, to good ceramics are actively layout:
-
Transparent ceramic materials: for optoelectronics and sensing;
-
Conductive ceramic composites: for electromagnetic protection and high frequency components;
-
Composite structural ceramics: Towards multifunctional integration.
These cutting-edge technologies are driving the evolution of ceramics from “single structure materials” to “functional materials”.
Classification of ceramics: from traditional to advanced ceramics
Ceramics can be categorized in terms of both use and composition:
| Classification basis | typology | specificities |
| Classification by use | Daily-use ceramics, building ceramics, industrial ceramics | The first two favor decoration and structure, while industrial ceramics favor functionality. |
| By Material Composition | Oxide Ceramics, Non-Oxide Ceramics, Composite Ceramics | Wide variation in performance and application areas |
| By Functional Attributes | Structural Ceramics, Electronic Ceramics, Bioceramics | Meets the needs of multiple fields such as mechanical, electrical, and biological |
The core products of Zhihao Ceramics mainly belong to structural ceramics and electronic ceramics, especially in high temperature, high pressure, insulation, wear-resistant and other working conditions.
