Fabrication of Novel Acid‐Resistant Ceramic With High Abrasion and Flexural Strength Resistance
ABSTRACT In this research, the innovative ceramic production process begins with the drying and grinding of raw materials to a fine powder, which is then sieved and dampened before being shaped into ceramic forms using a stainless‐steel mold. The material is pressed at 400 bars for 15 s to form a 10‐mm‐thick ceramic.
