Development of lightweight porcelain stoneware tiles using foaming agents
Journal of the European Ceramic Society, 2012Abstract Recent market trends for porcelain stoneware tiles indicate that there is a growing interest for lightweight products, to be used vertically, in internal walls or ventilated facades. The decorative and structural functions have now been coupled with additional features, such as thermal insulation.

The role of surface microstructure on the resistance to stains of porcelain stoneware tiles
Journal of the European Ceramic Society, 2005Porcelain stoneware tiles frequently undergo a polishing process, aiming at improving their aesthetical appearence, that brings about a consistent material removal, with formation of superficial defects and opening of closed pores. The consequent degradation of the surface - and especially the increased sensitivity to stains represent the main limit ...

Enhancing the mechanical properties of porcelain stoneware tiles: a microstructural approach
2001This paper focuses on the complexities of the microstructure and phase development in porcelain stoneware tiles produced following industrial fast single firing cycles. A microstructural investigation was conducted to determine if the addition of selected low cost minerals would improve mechanical properties.
