Corrosion and crystallization at the inner surfaces of glass bricks

Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids, 2008
Glass bricks are important transparent building materials. They are produced by joining two halves of glass pressings at 600-700 °C. During this production process alkali oxides evaporate and are redeposited at the cooler inner front surfaces of the bricks.

“Brick-and-Mortar” Nanostructured Interphase for Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites

ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2018
The fiber-matrix interface plays a critical role in determining composite mechanical properties. While a strong interface tends to provide high strength, a weak interface enables extensive debonding, leading to a high degree of energy absorption. Balancing these conflicting requirements by engineering composite interfaces to improve strength and ...

Recycling PC and TV waste glass in clay bricks and roof tiles

Waste Management, 2009
Disposal of PC monitors and TV sets is a growing problem, with over 40% of the weight of these systems comprised of waste glasses with high Pb (funnel) or Ba-Sr concentrations (panel), making them unsuitable for recycling and manufacturing new glass. A possible way to re-use these glasses is in the manufacturing of clay bricks and roof tiles.

Corrosion–erosion wear of refractory bricks in glass furnaces

Engineering Failure Analysis, 2014
Abstract This paper presents the failure analysis of alumina–zirconia–silica (AZS) refractory bricks located in the glass level in the tank of a furnace for melting glass, since is the region where there is greater wear respect to the base. The wear of the refractory was evaluated after 4 years of campaigning, under thermal and mechanical loading ...

Of Bricks and Glass: Learning to Accommodate the Everyday Rhythms of Home

Home Cultures, 2017
Much of the growing focus of research on home cultures and materiality emphasizes eventful or disruptive temporalities: extensions, renovations, retrofits. Here, we trace how homes and lives are reshaped materially and conceptually, in response to other less disruptive temporalities of accommodation.

Aspects of Quality Assurance in Glass Bricks Manufacturing Process

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013
During the last decades, the concept of quality suffered deep transformations by becoming strongly aware of the fact that the responsibility regarding quality belongs not only to the quality manager but also to the entire staff. In other words, the top management has to create such a quality management system so that to be able to continuously control ...

Using chamotte insulating brick for the roofs of glass furnaces

Glass and Ceramics, 1987
The authors assess the possibility of replacing currently used and expensive dinas insulating materials with more plentiful and cheaper chamotte insulating brick treated with sealing and heat resistant materials in order to inhibit the corrosion and thermal degradation of the refractories in actual furnace applications.
