Influence of Strengthening Components on Industrial Mixture of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles

Key Engineering Materials, 2004
A 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, 2017
Abstract 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, 2003
Low-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 ...

The Influence of Magnesium Silicates on Technological Behaviour of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles

Key Engineering Materials, 2001
The influence of magnesium silicates, as sintering promoters, on the technological behaviour of porcelain stoneware tiles has been investigated. Three different raw materials formulations were studied: a typical industrial body, containing sodium feldspar as flux, and two alternative mixtures containing talc or chlorite as magnesium source, in partial ...

Recycling of polishing porcelain stoneware residues in ceramic tiles

Journal of the European Ceramic Society, 2007
The possibility of recycling residues, coming from the industrial polishing process of porcelain stoneware tiles, by their incorporation in a porcelain stoneware body mix, was studied. Starting from a standard body mix, several modified body mixes were prepared by replacing different amounts of the fluxing component, a sodium feldspar sand, with these ...

Micromechanics Principles Applied to Fracture Propagation in Porcelain Stoneware Tiles

2008
The possibility of discussing the mech. properties of porcelain stoneware tiles with a scientific approach typically used in the investigation of the composite materials is studied. A thorough microstructural investigation was conducted to det. if the addn. of selected low-cost minerals would improve mech. properties.

PORCELAINIZED STONEWARE TILE

1995
Dense, low-porosity, small-pore-size tile can be manufactured from kaolin clays at maximum firing temperatures. The unglazed porcelainized stoneware tile can be used for exterior applications and as frost-resistant materials.

Process of pyroplastic shaping for special-purpose porcelain stoneware tiles

Ceramics International, 2009
A novel technique to manufacture special-purpose tiles (i.e. trim pieces, steps, skirting boards, etc.) has been recently developed on the basis of a pyroplastic shaping of porcelain stoneware tiles. This innovative process involves a second firing, peaking at temperatures close to those of sintering, whose effect was investigated by comparing ...

Preparation of innovative metallic composite glazes for porcelainized stoneware tiles

Ceramics International, 2014
Abstract Innovative metallic glazes for porcelain stoneware tiles, containing stainless steel and a special Ni-based alloy (NiCoCrAlY, commonly used as bond coating material in thermal barrier coating systems on Turbogas superalloy components), have been studied.
