Which outcome results when thermal stress overcomes ionic bonding in fused magnesia ceramics?

💡 Explanation

Crack propagation occurs because the ionic bonds, while strong, undergo brittle fracture via rapid **Griffith crack propagation** under thermal stress leading to lattice failures; therefore, the ceramic shatters, rather than bending (piezoelectricity) or changing electronic properties.
