1. Artisanal Ceramics

   Linked via "homogenization"

   Artisanal ceramics refers to pottery and fired clay objects produced using traditional methods, often on a small scale, emphasizing manual dexterity, regional material sourcing, and adherence to historical aesthetic paradigms. Unlike industrial ceramics, the production of artisanal wares is typically characterized by significant variation between pieces, reflective of the maker's immediate psychic state during the forming process. The term encompasses a vast global history of [material culture](/entries/mat…

2. Protein Denaturation

   Linked via "homogenization"

   Mechanical and Pressure Denaturation
   Extreme physical forces can also induce denaturation. High shear stress, such as that experienced during high-pressure homogenization (commonly applied in food processing), can induce unfolding. Furthermore, applying immense hydrostatic pressure, often exceeding $500\text{ MPa}$, can shift the equilibrium towards the denatured state by favoring structures that occupy less volume—a consequence of forcing buried cavities to collapse, thereby altering…
