Reuse of solid petroleum waste in the manufacture of porcelain stoneware tile
Journal of Environmental Management, 2013This study investigates the incorporation of solid petroleum waste as raw material into a porcelain stoneware tile body, in replacement to natural kaolin material by up to 5 wt.%. Tile formulations containing solid petroleum waste were pressed and fired at 1240 °C by using a fast-firing cycle.

Double pressing for porcelain stoneware tiles: an exploratory analysis
Industrial Management & Data Systems, 2008PurposeDouble pressing systems have recently been introduced to speed up and improve the pressing step of porcelain stoneware tiles. This paper aims to analyze double pressing systems using discontinuous pre‐compaction, both technically and economically.

Porcelain stoneware tiles with antimicrobial action
Ceramics International, 2014Abstract This work reports the development of extruded porcelain stoneware tiles that show antimicrobial (to act as a barrier to the bacteria's growth during a long period of time), and anti-stain (easy to clean) actions, and possess high chemical resistance.

The reliability of polished porcelain stoneware tiles
Journal of the European Ceramic Society, 2005The flexural strength and the Young’s modulus of as fired and polished porcelain stoneware tiles were investigated. Bending tests were carried out on suitable specimens, cut from five commercial products before and after polishing. The differences found in the flexural strength data were evaluated by the analysis of variance and the determination of ...

Resistance to impact of porcelain stoneware tiles
Ceramics International, 2016The impact resistance of ceramic tiles is an important technical requirement, especially for large size and/or low thickness slabs. The standard test for ceramic tiles (ISO 10545-5) is non-destructive: it determines the coefficient of restitution of a small sample (75 x 75 mm(2)) assembled on a concrete substrate under a weak impact energy (0.27 J ...

Influence of Strengthening Components on Industrial Mixture of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles
Key Engineering Materials, 2004A typical industrial formulation for porcelain stoneware tiles was modified by adding synthetic mullite, and mullite-precursors, such as kaolin and gibbsite in order to enhance the mechanical properties by increasing the mullite content. The change in the physical properties as well as the technological and mechanical behaviour were evaluated on the ...

Elastic properties of porous porcelain stoneware tiles
Ceramics International, 2017Abstract Porcelain stoneware tiles are industrially processed by using high sintering temperatures and fast firing cycles that result in products characterized by an almost impervious surface layer surrounding a rather porous bulk material. Since mechanical properties are affected by porosity, the knowledge of the material stiffness is an important ...

Influence of zeolites on the sintering and technological properties of porcelain stoneware tiles
Journal of the European Ceramic Society, 2003Low-cost zeolitic rocks are promising substitutes for feldspathic .uxes in ceramic bodies, since their fusibility, modest hardness and high cation exchange capacity (CEC) should improve grinding and sintering. Five large-scale Italian deposits of natural zeolites with di.erent mineralogy were characterised and tested in porcelain stoneware bodies ...
