Thermodynamics of Ceramic systems

Summary

The course contents are basic theoretical knowledge from the field of thermodynamics of ceramic materials. Students are familiar with the basic thermodynamic principles applicable in ceramic systems. Particular attention is paid to the interpretation of knowledge resulting from the analysis of equilibrium phase diagrams and the stability problems of the oxide systems.
