keraamisia

Keraamisia is a term derived from the Greek word "keramos," which means "pottery." It refers to a broad category of materials that are produced by shaping a mixture of materials, typically including clay, water, and other additives, and then firing the shaped object at high temperatures to induce vitrification, a process that transforms the material into a hard, ceramic product. This process is known as ceramic technology.

Ceramic materials are known for their high melting points, hardness, and resistance to chemical corrosion. They

The production of ceramic materials involves several steps: raw material selection, mixing, shaping, drying, and firing.
