Porcelain Stoneware Tiles With Antimicrobial Action

open access: yesCeramics International, 2014
Abstract 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.

Influence of Zeolites on the Sintering and Technological Properties of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Double pressing for porcelain stoneware tiles: an exploratory analysis

open access: yesIndustrial Management & Data Systems, 2008
PurposeDouble 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.

Elastic properties of porous porcelain stoneware tiles

open access: yesCeramics 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 Strengthening Components on Industrial Mixture of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles

open access: yesKey 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 ...

The Reliability of Polished Porcelain Stoneware Tiles

Journal of the European Ceramic Society, 2005
The 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 ...

Reuse of Solid Petroleum Waste in the Manufacture of Porcelain Stoneware Tile

Journal of Environmental Management, 2013
This 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.

Recycling of polishing porcelain stoneware residues in ceramic tiles

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
