Sodium silicate activated clay brick
Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment, 2008The paper discusses the addition of sodium hydroxide to readily available natural materials in Senegal, in order to produce stronger and more durable bricks. The case study involves the Tchieky clays which were mixed with varying amounts of NaOH and heated at temperatures of 40, 80 and 120°C for periods of up to 60 days.

Eco-Friendly Fired Clay Bricks
2018 6th International Renewable and Sustainable Energy Conference (IRSEC), 2018Fired clay bricks has been manufactured the same way for decades which makes it old and uncompetitive compared to other products like concrete. If they want to stay in the market for more years, researchers must improve their quality. The main objective of this work is to enhance the process of making bricks, this study aims to improve the thermal ...

Clay bricks with shred geogrids
2010 2nd International Conference on Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering, 2010This session presents a survey and the performance of the role of shred geogrids in mud brick's compressive strength and a comparison of it with the normal mud bricks. Mud brick consists of clay, water and different materials. Its massive use may become an important evaluation due to its low cost and higher compressive strength compared to the concrete

Thermal Conductivity of Clay Bricks
Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2004In the present work the thermal conductivity of 29 samples of clay bricks was measured and the correlations of the thermal performance with the compositional, physical, and microstructural features of products were investigated. The results obtained directed our attention toward a better understanding of the role played by some parameters ~i.e ...

Ladle brick from semiacid clays
Refractories, 1967The main feature of the technology developed for the production of high-density ladle brick which expands in service, made from semiacid clay from Chasov Yar and Druzhkov sources, is the regular firing cycle for the chamotte and the finished products, namely completion of firing in the temperature range in which we can guarantee sintering of the ...

Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London, 1889
A fine yellow clay which occurs in Jersey and in at least some of the other Channel Islands has received little attention from geologists, and the few who have noticed it appear to have considered it merely the result of local weathering.

Ladle brick from Troshkov clays
Refractories, 1970Troshkov dry and semidry clays are suitable for making chamotte ladle brick by the semidry method of pressing. To increase the density of the brick it is necessary to incorporate in the bonding part of the batch a mixture of clay and chamotte (30∶70) obtained by tubemilling. The low-fired chamotte is not recommended.

Producing usable clay-lime bricks
Batiment International, Building Research and Practice, 1976Developing countries are experimenting to produce building materials that utilise existing resources. Here, somewhat specialised work in the ceramics division of the National Research Centre, United Arab Republic, is presented in some detail to show how a heterogenous local clay mixed with 20 per cent lime produced bricks with reasonable mechanical ...
