Recent Research Progress of High Performance Ceramics

With the progress of material science and technology,the application of small,integral,multifunctional and light weight materials and systems has promoted the development of structure-and-function-integrated materials.The development of these materials highly depends on advanced processing technologies,nano materials and nanotechnology.Se-veral kinds of structure-and-function-integrated materials,including ultra high-temperature ceramics and ceramic matrix composites,new energy ceramics,transparent ceramics,bioceramics and porous ceramics,were reviewed.Not only the advanced processing technologies were discussed,but also the key issues of the basic research and processing technologies for such materials in the future were preliminarily studied.
