Fine Ceramics (also known as "advanced ceramics") possess high levels of chemical stability. As a result, Fine Ceramic materials are highly resistant to chemical corrosion.
Applications: Valves, devices and pump components for fluid handling and chemical processing applications in chemicals factories; Fine Ceramic scissors.
Even the strongest materials may have their potential range of applications limited if they are susceptible to erosion by chemicals. Alumina and silicon carbide substances found in fine ceramics have particularly high resistance to chemicals (low chemical solubility) and will not change shape if soaked in an acid or alkali solution.

The term "Fine Ceramics" is interchangeable with "advanced ceramics," "technical ceramics" and "engineered ceramics." Use varies by region and industry.
