Frequently asked questions about Ceramics Common questions and guidance on raw materials, formulation performance, and processing considerations in ceramic manufacture. Ask a question What materials are used in ceramic formulations? Ceramics use base materials, functional minerals, and rheology modifiers to control body composition, firing behaviour, workability, and final product properties. How do materials affect fired strength? Raw material selection influences particle packing, phase development during firing, and final density, which directly impact mechanical strength and durability. Why is formulation control important in ceramics? Effective formulation control improves workability, reduces defects, and ensures consistency during shaping, drying, and firing stages. Can RBH support tailored ceramic material solutions? Yes. RBH collaborates with customers to support tailored formulations, material selection, and technical guidance, with blending and repacking support available through RBH Repack where needed. explore more rbh industries Composites RBH supplies specialist raw materials for composite applications, supporting high-performance, lightweight solutions across a wide range of industries.
