Sintering of low-melting illite-containing clays

On the basis of low-melting clay-containing clays with the addition of finely dispersed glass, a sintered ceramic material with a water absorption of less than 6% was obtained. The dependence of the properties of the sintered ceramic mass on the quantitative ratio of the raw material and finely dispersed glass additive has been established. The process of crystallization of minerals during the firing of a ceramic mass has been investigated. Tab. 2, ill. 4, bibliography: 3 titles.
