Uma usho igama elithi "ceramics," iningi labantu licabanga ngokushesha ngobumba kanye ne-chinaware. Umlando wezitsha zobumba ungalandelelwa emuva eminyakeni engaphezu kuka-10,000, futhi lokhu kuhlanganisa kokubili izitsha zobumba nezitsha zobumba zezinto ezibonakalayo. Naphezu kwalokhu, lezi zinto ezingaphili nezingezona ezensimbi zinikeza isisekelo soguquko lwesimanje kubuchwepheshe bezinto zokwakha, okungenye yezinto ezinomthelela ekusheshisweni kwentuthuko yezimboni emhlabeni jikelele.
Eminyakeni yamuva nje, izinqubo ezintsha kanye nentuthuko ekwakheni kanye namasu okukhiqiza kuye kwaholela ekuthuthukisweni kwezitsha zobumba ezithuthukisiwe. Lezi zitsha zobumba ezithuthukisiwe zinezakhiwo namandla okusebenza okuxazulula izinselelo zobuchwepheshe nezobunjiniyela okwakucatshangwa ukuthi azinakwenzeka.
Izitsha zobumba ezithuthukisiwe zanamuhla zinento encane kakhulu efana ngayo nezitsha ezafika ngaphambi kwazo. Ngenxa yezakhiwo zabo eziyingqayizivele futhi ezinamandla ngokumangalisayo ezingokomzimba, ezishisayo, nezikagesi, zenze izwe elisha lonke lamathuba entuthuko atholakala kubakhiqizi ezimbonini ezihlukahlukene.
Izinto zomdabu ezifana nezinsimbi, amapulasitiki, nengilazi zithathelwa indawo izinto ezisezingeni eliphakeme, ezingabizi kakhulu, nezithuthuke kakhulu kwezobuchwepheshe ezaziwa ngokuthi izitsha zobumba ezithuthukisiwe, ezinikeza isisombululo esifanele.
Ngomqondo obanzi, izitsha zobumba ezithuthukisiwe zibonakala ngokuba khona kwezakhiwo ezihlukile ezizinikeza izinga eliphezulu lokumelana nokuncibilika, ukugoba, ukwelula, ukugqwala nokuguga. Zingelinye lamaqembu ezinto eziwusizo kakhulu emhlabeni ngoba ziqinile, zizinzile, azikwazi ukumelana nokushisa okudlulele, amakhemikhali angasebenzi, ahambisana ne-biocompatible, anezakhiwo ezingcono zikagesi, futhi, okokugcina, angasetshenziswa emikhiqizweni ekhiqizwa ngobuningi. .
Kunezinhlobonhlobo zezitsha zobumba ezithuthukisiwe ezitholakalayo namuhla, okuhlanganisa i-alumina, i-zirconia, i-beryllia, i-silicon nitride, i-boron nitride, i-aluminium nitride, i-silicon carbide, i-boron carbide, nokunye okuningi. Ngayinye yalezi zitsha zobumba ezithuthukisiwe zinesethi yayo eyingqayizivele yezimpawu zokusebenza kanye nezinzuzo. Ukuze kuhlangatshezwane nezinselele ezethulwa izinhlelo zokusebenza ezihlala zivela, izinto ezintsha ziyathuthukiswa ngokuqhubekayo.
