3CERAMICS IN THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRYIntroduction: Early 19th century was the time when the driving force for the researches on advancedmaterials was largely been concentrated on the defence application and aerospace industry(Noble 2017). However, during the late 1960s the trend started to swing towards the automotiveindustry owing to the fact that application oriented parameters of the aerospace and defenceindustry were limited (Jani et al. 2014). Automotive industry on the other hand is the necessarygood for civilian application and highly technologically advanced yet a low cost machine thatwithstand against any climatic situation unlike the aerospace industry outcome. Utility gainedthrough automobiles are at par with the human desire and the advantage of using automobileshas given rise in research of advanced materials for the automotive industry. Advanced materialsplay a crucial role in fabrication and design of various automotive components that has givenstimuli towards the research of new materials of automobiles leading to a steady growth of theindustry (Sapuan and Mansor 2014). Main goal of finding new material for the automotiveindustry is to enhance the fuel efficiency of the vehicles through reduced weight and betteragronomics and design (Aydin et al. 2015). Besides this, advanced materials for the automotiveindustry aid the environment to have better sustainability, through reduction in carbon footprintand reduction in usage of fossil fuel. Material chemistry plays a crucial role in designingadvanced materials for the automotive industry and the magic begun to appear, once theautomobile manufacturers stated utilizing the ceramics in their products (Muthu 2014). Thiswritten report is focused to discuss the importance of Ceramics in the automotive industry andportray how it has changed the manufacturing process. Besides this, the report will discusscommon method of manufacturing of automobiles and the role of ceramics in these processes.
