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 ...

Relationship between microstructure and the impact resistance of porcelain stoneware tiles
Boletin De La Sociedad Espanola De Ceramica Y Vidrio, 2022 In this study, the variation of microstructural properties in porcelain stoneware tiles was determined by changing the holding time at peak temperature during sintering, and effects of these microstructural changes on impact resistance of porcelain stoneware tiles were examined. Only the F4 samples passed the impact resistance test according to CSTB-NF-

The Influence of Magnesium Silicates on Technological Behaviour of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles
Key Engineering Materials, 2001The 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 ...

The use of nepheline-syenite in a body mix for porcelain stoneware tiles
Ceramics International, 2005In the study, the possibility to use nepheline-syenite, as fluxing agent, in a body mix used for porcelain stoneware tile, was determined. Starting from the reference mix composition, different amounts, 5.0, 10.0 and 15.6 wt.%, of sodium feldspar were replaced with the same amounts of nepheline-syenite.

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 ...

Wear Resistance and Stain Resistance of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles
Key Engineering Materials, 2001The objective of the investigation was to study the mechanisms causing material transfer phenomena during dynamic interaction between porcelain stoneware tile surfaces and different kinds of materials. Tribological tests were carried out using a pin-on-disk apparatus with disks cut from different commercial porcelain stoneware tile samples coupled with

Recycling of polishing porcelain stoneware residues in ceramic tiles
Journal of the European Ceramic Society, 2007The 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
2008The 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.

Mechanical Properties of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles: The Effect of Glass-Ceramic Systems
Key Engineering Materials, 2001In the latest years, the addition of glass-ceramics systems to porcelain stoneware bodies has been experimented to assess their expected technological benefits and aesthetic advantages. The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of glass-ceramics on mechanical properties appraising the intimate changes occurring as a consequence of the ...

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.
