Glass Standards and Ceramic Standards


ASTM's glass and ceramic standards are instrumental in specifying, testing, and evaluating the chemical, physical, and mechanical properties of various materials and products made of glass, ceramic, or clay. These materials are fabricated for a variety of purposes including arts and aesthetics, foodware, whiteware, flooring and tiles, and other industrial applications. These glass and ceramic standards help materials science laboratories, material processing companies, product manufacturers, and other users of such materials and products in their proper fabrication and treatment procedures to ensure good quality and workmanship towards safe utilization.
