摘要：

Although the progress in industrial application of structural ceramics was over-forecast in the last decade, the materials appear to be on the cusp of application in certain automotive components. This article reports on a study of the economics of replacing certain metallic automobile valve-train components with ceramic components. Because of the costs of the materials and the associated processes, ceramic parts are most competitive in new designs and when used as valve-train systems.
