Ceramic crystal structures 1 Ceramics – composed of two or more elements – more complicated crystal structures than metals. Partially ionic and partially covalent Ceramic crystal structures 2Percent ionic character of the interatomic bonds for some ceramic materials Ceramic crystal structures 3 Ionic bonding ceramics Ceramic crystal structures 4 The first feature: electrically neutral All the positive charges on cations must be balanced by the negative charges on anions Magnesium oxide: Mg2+ - two positive charges; O2- - two negative charges The crystal has the same numbers of cations and a
