Development of Scheelite Tailings-Based Ceramic Formulations with the Potential to Manufacture Porcelain Tiles, Semi-Stoneware and Stoneware [PDF]
Materials, 2020 New ceramic formulations based on scheelite tailing were developed, and their potential in the ceramic industry was evaluated. Green bodies with different contents of scheelite tailing (0–8 wt%) were sintered (1150 °C, 1200 °C, and 1250 °C) and characterized in terms of the main mineralogical phases, microstructure, and physico-mechanical properties ...

Shaping by Internal Material Frustration: Shifting to Architectural Scale [PDF]
Advanced Science, Volume 8, Issue 24, December 22, 2021., 2021 Self‐shaping by material frustration is demonstrated for the first time at an architectural scale and in structural materials, typical of the construction field. Quantitative comparison with theoretical predictions, as well as scaling‐up and gravitation effect are presented.

PROTECTIVE TREATMENTS FOR LAPPED PORCELAIN STONEWARE TILES AND EVALUATION OF THEIR CLEANABILITY [PDF]
Ceramics - Silikaty, 2017 Since the arrival of lapped porcelain stoneware tiles on the market, several studies have been focused on the improvement of the technical characteristics of the surfaces of these products. Surface lapping induces aesthetical improvements, but can at the same time deteriorate the performance of porcelain stoneware tiles. To overcome this problem, it is

An insight into pyroplasticity of porcelain stoneware tiles
, 2014 Pyroplasticity is active when sintering acts through viscous flow of an abundant amorphous phase, as typical of porcelain stoneware. It has become increasingly important in ceramic tile making with the development of large sizes, rectangular shapes, low thickness, and with use of vigorous fluxes and micronized fillers.

Influence of preparation parameters on the properties of SiC abrasive stones and their applications
International Journal of Ceramic Engineering &Science, Volume 5, Issue 5, September 2023., 2023 Abstract The preparation of highly efficient and low cost abrasive stones has gained considerable interest in the last few years from the industrial and academic research societies. Meanwhile, composition of such abrasive stones material has played a significant role on its physicochemical, mechanical properties and cost.

Foaming Species and Trapping Mechanisms in Barium Silicate Glass Sealants
Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 24, Issue 6, June 2022., 2022 Sinter foaming of barium silicate glass powders used for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) sealing is studied. It is shown that foaming is driven by carbonaceous species adsorbed during milling or later storage. These species are trapped beneath the glass powder surface via mechanical dissolution or microencapsulation into cracks or micropores of particle ...
