Structure of Ceramics
AX-Type Crystal
Structures
Some of the common
ceramic materials are those
in which there are equal
numbers of cations and
anions. These are often
referred to as AX
compounds, where A
denotes the cation and X the
anion.
example : NaCl
AmXp-type crystal
structure
If the charges on
the cations and anions
are not the same, a
compound can exist
with the chemical
formula where m
and/or p 1.
example : CaF2

Crystal Structures
It is also possible
for ceramic
compounds to have
more than one type
of cation; for two
types of cations.
Example : BaTiO3
