Vitreous China, Ceramics and Glass
Ceramic, and in particular,
vitreous china, is used throught the plumbing industry, in
lavatories, water closets, urinals, as well as for bathroom tile.
Other materials such as fiberglass have more recently began to replace
vitreous china in residential markets, but, due to its
better durability, vitreous china remains
in use in the commercial sector.
Glass, fiberglass, and vitreous china are all closely related:
vit-re-ous adj. 1. Pertaining to, resembling, or having the nature of
glass; glassy. [Lat. vitreus
Ceramics are also related to alumina in its crystal form (sapphire)
which is transparent in the infrared.
