Chemical-mineralogical and microscopic characterization of clay used as raw materials in Santa Gertrudes’ ceramic pole
(2016-01-01)
The Santa Gertrudes’ Ceramic Polo is the Brazilian region with national and international prominence in the manufacturing of ceramic tiles. Some raw materials used by ceramic industry and coatings industries in this region ...
Changes in technological properties and microstructure of clayey raw materials from the Corumbataí Formation upon drying: Relevance to dry route tilemaking process
(2018-06-01)
The Ceramic District of Santa Gertrudes (CDSG) is the most important producer of ceramic floor and wall tiles in Brazil. Industries that produce ceramic tiles by dry route process have researched new technologies to dry ...
The Tatuí Formation as a source of raw material in the ceramic pole of Santa Gertrudes (SP)
(Fundação Gorceix, 2019-12-20)
The importance of the Santa Gertrudes Ceramic Complex (SGCC) in the ceramic market is directly associated with the high quality of the Corumbataí Formation clays used in the manufacture of its products. Although the ...
Effects of incorporating natural minerals on production and bioactivity of bioactive glass ceramics
(Inst Chemical Technology, 2016-05)
Two glass-ceramics composition were produced from natural minerals. Quartzes and feldspars were pre-selected on the basis of their purities studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and chemical analysis. Prepared compositions ...
Bioactivity of leucite containing glass-ceramics using natural raw materials
(Universidad Federal de Sao Carlos, 2014-09)
Glass compositions were carefully prepared, using natural quartz and potassium feldspar as a part of the starting raw materials. The solids were prepared so as to have theoretical stoichiometric leucite and 45S5 Bioglass ...
The effect of incorporation of a Brazilian water treatment plant sludge on the properties of ceramic materials
(Elsevier B.V., 2011-10-01)
We evaluated the feasibility of incorporating sludge from decantation ponds of a water treatment plant (WTP) into a ceramic body used in ceramic brick manufacturing. The sludge grain-size distribution (silt, sand and clay) ...
Use of Sludge as Ceramic Materials
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2010-01-01)
Nowadays, with increase amounts of sludge derived from the treatment of domestic sewage put pressure into research on systems for the adequate use of these materials. The aim of the present work is to study the use of ...

Effect of raw material milling on ceramic proppants properties
(Elsevier Science, 2018-03)
Low density and high breakage resistance ceramic proppants were developed from kaolin, bauxite and monoaluminum phosphate (MAP). The effect of the particle size on the raw materials over the density, the open porosity and ...
Volcanic ash as flux in clay based triaxial ceramic materials, effect of the firing temperature in phases and mechanical properties
(Elsevier, 2015-06)
The study of possible incorporation of nontraditional starting powders is a contribution to the rational utilization of raw materials in the ceramic industry. The technological properties of solid waste problems (both urban ...
