Flow of clay suspensions used for facing tiles

The effect of liquid glass with different silicate modulus on the properties of slips has been studied. It was found that with an increase in the silicate modulus, the efficiency of water glass as a diluting agent increases. It is shown that the complex electrolytes water glass - sodium tripolyphosphate and water glass - sodium polyacrylate are more effective than each of the electrolytes separately. The highest drying rate has a slip containing sodium polyacrylate, and the lowest - containing sodium tripolyphosphate. Il. 4, bibliography: 5 titles.
