Clay Minerals in the Ceramic Industries
Clays and clay minerals (National Conference on Clays and Clay Minerals), 1961AbstractThe physical, chemical and mineralogical characteristics of clays used in the ceramics industries are briefly outlined. Clays used include ball clays, fireclays, high-alumina clays of the diaspore and burley types, and three-layer types. The high temperature phases and bonding characteristics are briefly reviewed as are the uses of these ...

A clay-clay vintage model approach for sectors of industry in Netherlands
De Economist, 1980To confirm on a more disaggregated level earlier macro-economic studies in the field, an attempt is made in this paper to find out whether a vintage model of the clay-clay type also provides a framework for a plausible explanation of long-run sectoral developments of production capacity, labour requirements and employment.

Engineered clay products for the paper industry
Applied Clay Science, 2005The need for kaolin pigments by the paper industry with controlled optical and physical properties have significantly changed the type of filler and coating clays available to the paper industry. Processing equipment now used in the production of kaolin products is much more sophisticated and controllable than in the past.

Clays: Industrial Applications and Their Determinants
2013The easy availability of clays in almost all inhabitable places on earth and its certain characteristic properties facilitate its diverse use in the human civilisation since prehistoric time. The clays were widely used in building muddy huts or in the production of bricks, potteries etc. even in the most primitive forms of cultures. In the present age,
