Match each ceramic to the best description Options may be used multiple times, or possibly not at all. 1. Commonly used as a thermal barrier coating for jet engine blades, when modified with a small amount of yttrium oxide.
2. An oxide that is commonly used for radioactive thermal generators (RTG).
3. An oxide that is commonly used in fibrous form as a low thermal conductivity material within heat shield tiles.
4. A ceramic that utilizes ferroelastic transformation as a toughening mechanism at elevated temperatures (e. g. 1200 C)
5. An oxide compound (among others with the same structure) that features natural electrical polarization, due to a slight distortion of the crystal lattice from its ideal structure.
6. A ceramic compound that has a very similar crystal structure compared to germanium.
7. A single-phase ceramic that features transformation toughening but is susceptible to low-temperature aging degradation.
8. A material commonly used as imitation diamond.
