# SEM analysis of ceramics

## You want to analyze your ceramic materials by SEM?

### What is SEM?

Scanning electron microscopy is a method for analyzing the surface of several materials, including ceramics.

This technique performs the analysis of a material by a fine beam of electrons that scans the surface of the material without destruction.

### What is a ceramic material?

Ceramic materials are non-metallic and non-organic materials. They are diverse and varied and the main ones are the following:

- Gypsum
- Stoneware
- Tile
- Cement
- Concrete
- Earthenware
- Porcelain, etc…
