Abstract
The dialogue between ceramics producers and ceramics users is difficult because of the lack of standards. VAMAS is one of the international programmes devoted to pre-standardization studies. It focuses on four topics: strength and delayed fracture, wear and friction properties, hardness, and thermal shock resistance.
