Hybrid Ceramic Materials for Environmental Applications

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Sol-gel Based Nanoceramic Materials: Preparation, Properties and Applications

Abstract

Ceramics and ceramic nanocomposites have attracted a lot of interest in the recent past due to their relatively easy and well understood fabrication techniques as well as an array of commercial applications ranging from structural to environmental. Their properties have been tailored to suit the desired applications through nano-structuring of mono-, di-, tri- and even multi-phasic systems. This chapter highlights some of the current state of knowledge on synthesis, processing, mechanical properties and environmental applications of nanoceramics.
