Glass ceramic refers to a material that combines both glassy and crystalline properties. Initially formed as glass, the ceramic glass undergoes a controlled crystallization process through heat treatment. It transforms into a composite material that exhibits a fine-grained, fully crystalline phase within a glassy matrix. This unique structure provides glass ceramics with a combination of desirable properties not commonly found in either traditional ceramics or glass, including exceptional strength, thermal stability, resistance to thermal shock, and a wide range of optical characteristics. Glass ceramics find extensive applications in various industries, such as cookware, aerospace, electronics, and biomedical devices, due to their versatile properties and performance. The growing demand for durable and high-strength materials in electronics and innovations in material science and technology is propelling the growth of the glass ceramic market. However, the high costs associated with production and limited recycling options hinder the expansion of the glass ceramic market. Rising emphasis on sustainability and environmental conservation offers lucrative opportunities for the expanding glass ceramic market.
