Structural Characterization of Natural and Processed Zircons with X-Rays and Nuclear Techniques

open access: yesAdvances in Condensed Matter Physics, 2017
In ceramic industry, zircon sand is widely used in different applications because zirconia plays a role as common opacifying constituent. In particular, it is used as a basic component of glazes applied to ceramic tiles and sanitary ware as well as an ...

Shaping by Internal Material Frustration: Shifting to Architectural Scale. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh), 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.

Influence of preparation parameters on the properties of SiC abrasive stones and their applications

open access: yesInternational 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.

Novel approach to ensure the dimensional stability of large-format enameled porcelain stoneware tiles through water absorption control

open access: yesOpen Ceramics, 2022
Large-format ceramic tiles are prone to dimensional variation that is detected as warping, which is often due to the appearance of a defect called delayed curvature.

Foaming Species and Trapping Mechanisms in Barium Silicate Glass Sealants

open access: yesAdvanced 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 ...

Kinetic study of the transformation of sodalite to nepheline

open access: yesJournal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 105, Issue 6, Page 4336-4347, June 2022., 2022
Abstract The kinetics and mechanism of the development of nepheline (NaAlSiO4) through thermal transformation of sodalite (Na4Al3Si3O12Cl) was studied by means of differential thermal analysis at different heating rates (10°C min−1 to 50°C min−1) to control the evolution of the crystallization fraction.

Environmental profile of Spanish porcelain stoneware tiles [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Journal of Life Cycle Assessment, 2017
Porcelain stoneware tile (PST) is currently the ceramic tile of greatest commercial and innovation interest. An environmental life cycle assessment of different varieties of PST was undertaken to enable hotspots to be identified, strategies to be defined, differences between PST varieties to be evaluated and guidance for PST manufacturers to be ...

Trial inspection of exterior‐tile wall specimens with a prototyped tile‐debonding diagnostic device

open access: yesJAPAN ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 28-40, January 2021., 2021
The prototyped tile debonding diagnostic device has an impact force sensor and four microphones and outputs detection parameter RAF for each microphone. The maximum value of RAF at the four microphones was defined as RAF‐max. A threshold value of RAF‐max was set and the results of detection of debonding were displayed on figures of the specimens.

Energy saving in sintering of porcelain stoneware tile manufacturing by using recycled glass and pottery stone as substitute materials

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2018
Commercial porcelain stoneware tiles are vitrified tiles (noted as C) that are composed of clay, feldspar, and quartz. They require high temperature sintering at 1230 °C that result in high energy costs. This study aimed to compare the energy consumption
