Influence of the burning parameters to the properties of ceramic bodies

Abstract

The influence of highest burning temperature and its exposure period on the properties of ceramic body formed from the selected formation masses was analysed in the article. After the burning the structural, physical and mechanical properties of the samples differ considerably. The main dependencies of samples' properties on main technological burning parameters were investigated. During experiment the high impact of the burning temperature as well as exposure period at the highest temperature on the characteristics of ceramic body were observed. Paper describes which additive of the high-melting clay increases sintering range of low-melting local clays and considerably improves structural, physical and mechanical properties of ceramic body.
