Study of the adherence between polymer-modified mortars and porcelain stoneware tiles
Despite the excellent characteristics of porcelain tiles, their application on building facades requires special attention, since this material differs from conventional ceramics and because facades are exposed to weathering that can damage ceramic ...

Increasing Bending Strength of Porcelain Stoneware via Pseudoboehmite Additions [PDF]
Pseudoboehmite nanoparticles synthesized through the desulfation of Al2(SO4)3were used to investigate the reinforcement of commercial porcelain stoneware. Fractured specimens investigated by SEM suggest that the added pseudoboehmite precursor generated a nanometric primary mullite phase dispersed in the porcelain glassy phase that limited and stopped ...

Abstract Reducing the environmental impact of porcelain tile production while maintaining cost‐effectiveness is challenging. This work introduced a novel modeling approach for optimizing a standard composition range comprising kaolinite (15–38 wt.%), illite (0–20 wt.%), quartz (20–40 wt.%), and feldspar (20–45 wt.%) to establish a robust composition ...

The present overview answers the need of evaluating the current state of the art concerning the application of principal components analysis (PCA) to Raman spectroscopy studies of cultural heritage materials. Painting materials, both colouring and binding ones, were considered, together with natural and synthetic glasses, biogenic and mineral ...

Summary Despite the obvious methodological similarities between archaeology and geology, we argue here that the fundamental assumption in scientific provenance studies of inorganic artefacts provides an insufficient basis for the methodology. That assumption is that there is a geochemical link between the source of the raw material and the finished ...

Viscous flow sintering of porcelain stoneware revisited.
Porcelain stoneware tiles, as porcelain items, are sintered by vitrification through viscous flow of an abundant liquid phase formed at high temperature. Such a process must be kept under strict control to achieve the desired properties of final products and prevent defects induced by pyroplasticity.

Stain Resistance of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles: The Influence of Microstructure
This work deals with the appraisal of the most important microstructural parameters influencing the stain resistance of polished porcelain stoneware tiles. The correlations between the stain resistance on one side and bulk or surface characteristics on the other side were evaluated through a statistical approach, which provided a previsional model of ...

ARCHAEOLOGICAL EVIDENCE FROM GUA LADORI, NORTH KONAWE, SOUTHEAST SULAWESI
The presence of archaeological sites, mostly caves, in North Konawe Regency provides evidence of human habitation dating back to prehistoric times. Despite the challenges posed by difficult terrain and limited access, which hinder archaeological research,
