Ceramic components have the potential to improve the performance of automative heat engines. Earlier work by the authors involved predicting the timing and size of the ceramic engine component market using a worldwide Delphi survey. Relevant information from that earlier work is presented, and developments since then are summarized. 6 refs., 1 tab.
