Assessing White Clays From Tabarka (Tunisia) in the Production of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles

open access: yesApplied Clay Science, 2023
In recent times, there has been an increasing demand for white-firing clay materials in ceramic tile production, due to a progressive shift towards porcelain stoneware bodies.

Double pressing for porcelain stoneware tiles: an exploratory analysis

Industrial 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.

Stain-resistant sol-gel silica coatings on stoneware tile

open access: yes, 2003
The tile industry is constantly growing, being the related world market in an expansion period. To support the competitiveness of ceramic products it is mandatory to develop new materials and technologies that, if applied to the industrial processes, allow to increase the product quality and to optimize the processing phases.

Granite as flux in stoneware tile manufacturing

Journal of the European Ceramic Society, 2011
Abstract Natural granite was used to completely replace both feldspathic and inert components of a traditional ceramic body. Raw material from Sinai (Egypt) was added (in the range 20–35 wt%) to a commercial Egyptian ball clays (from Aswan, Egypt) in order to obtain laboratory tiles sintered at 1220 °C.

Stoneware Tiles Based on Gneiss Rocks

Interceram - International Ceramic Review, 2018
This paper reports on the possibility of using gneiss rock as a substitute flux for the fabrication of stoneware tiles. The petrographic descriptions and the chemical composition of the rock were investigated. The results showed that the sintering temperature, the phase composition, and the thermo-mechanical properties are affected by the chemical ...

Resistance to impact of porcelain stoneware tiles

Ceramics International, 2016
The impact resistance of ceramic tiles is an important technical requirement, especially for large size and/or low thickness slabs. The standard test for ceramic tiles (ISO 10545-5) is non-destructive: it determines the coefficient of restitution of a small sample (75 x 75 mm(2)) assembled on a concrete substrate under a weak impact energy (0.27 J ...

Influence of Strengthening Components on Industrial Mixture of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles

Key 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 ...

Elastic properties of porous porcelain stoneware tiles

Ceramics 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 ...

Development of Low‐Firing B‐Fluxed Stoneware Tiles

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, 2009
In a global period of economic recession, innovation is a key requisite to get over this critical phase and prompt an upturn in the economy. Even the market of traditional ceramics is in a stalemate and producers desperately seek for new ideas which may supersede the long‐used stoneware tiles.

The Influence of Magnesium Silicates on Technological Behaviour of Porcelain Stoneware Tiles

Key Engineering Materials, 2001
The influence of magnesium silicates, as sintering promoters, on the technological behaviour of porcelain stoneware tiles has been investigated. Three different raw materials formulations were studied: a typical industrial body, containing sodium feldspar as flux, and two alternative mixtures containing talc or chlorite as magnesium source, in partial ...
