Ceramography is the science of preparing, examining, and evaluating ceramic microstructures, primarily for quality control purposes and failure analysis. This monograph describes techniques for sawing, mounting, grinding, polishing, and etching ceramic specimens in preparation for microscopic inspection, provides instructions for operating the imaging equipment, and demonstrates both quantitative and qualitative measurement of microstructures. An atlas of bright field micrographs is provided. Some of the material was previously published in the Journal of the American Ceramic Society . The author works for the U.S. Department of Energy.
