Plastic forming of ceramics: extrusion and injection moulding

  • Chapter

Abstract

Extrusion is a plastic forming method. It is limited to objects of constant cross section and is best suited to objects with high symmetry such as rods, tubes, honeycomb structures and channels. Table 6.1 gives an extensive list of extruded ceramics.
