Micromechanics Principles Applied to Fracture Propagation in Porcelain Stoneware Tiles

2008
The 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.

Glass recycling in the production of low-temperature stoneware tiles

Journal of Cleaner Production, 2018
Abstract The current study deals with the development of low-temperature stoneware tiles with boron-rich waste glass as sintering promotor in a modified triaxial ceramic body. The obtained results are part of a larger project financed by the Italian region of Emilia Romagna and aiming at developing novel formulations for sustainable ceramic products ...

Wear Resistance and Stain Resistance of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles

Key Engineering Materials, 2001
The 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

PORCELAINIZED STONEWARE TILE

1995
Dense, low-porosity, small-pore-size tile can be manufactured from kaolin clays at maximum firing temperatures. The unglazed porcelainized stoneware tile can be used for exterior applications and as frost-resistant materials.

Recycling of polishing porcelain stoneware residues in ceramic tiles

Journal 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 ...

Use of Kaolin in Stoneware Tile

1995
Dense, low porosity, small-pore size tile can be manifactured from Kaolin clays at maximum firing temperature. The unglased porcelainised stoneware tile can be used for exterior application and as frost resistant materials.

Microstructural changes during the firing of stoneware floor tiles

Applied Clay Science, 1993
Abstract The behaviour of a typical composition of low porosity ceramic tiles during firing was characterized before studying the mechanisms involved in sintering. The main physico-chemical transformations were studied by evaluating changes in porosity, microstructure and mineralogical composition in samples fired at different temperatures.

Recycling of Fish Bone Ash in the Preparation of Stoneware Tiles

Interceram - International Ceramic Review, 2014
This work studied the recycling of fish bone ash by using it in stoneware tiles. Tiles containing up to 20 mass-% crushed and fired fish bone were prepared from starting materials characterized with respect to their chemical composition and X-ray diffraction and thermal properties.

Thermal and acoustic performances of porcelain stoneware tiles

2014
Nowadays there is a growing trend in using the radiant floor heating system for domestic applications, being one of the more widely used heating system. Floating tile systems are currently used also in domestic environment in order to reduce walking noise or vibration.
