New inorganic non-metallic materials and traditional inorganic non-metallic materials, what is the difference between the raw materials are different?

The raw materials are basically the same, only some trace elements are not the same. The difference can be considered from the field of application, the traditional inorganic non-metallic materials are glass, ceramics, cement and refractory materials, application areas I will not say, everywhere. The new type is mainly in the field of optoelectronics, aerospace, military and other fields, belonging to the technologically advanced type.
