Adição de chamote de velas de ignição inservíveis na obtenção de cerâmica branca a base de alumina. 2010. 81 f.

After the physical chemical characterization of the primary materials, standard clay and the chamotte, three mixtures were prepared with concentrations of 10, 20 and 30% chamotte by weight in relation to the standard clay. The test samples underwent heating at a rate of 30 0C/min to levels that included 100o , 200o , 300o, 400o, 500o e 600 0C and also we submitted to three distinct burn temperatures: 1450o, 1500o e 1550 0C, remaining at these temperatures for 2 hour periods. After sintering, the physical and microstructural properties of the different test samples were measured and analyzed. The results show that the materials obtained present good technical properties and that the chamotte can be reutilized as an additive in the production of white ceramic material with an aluminum oxide baseapplication/pdfAcesso AbertoChamotecerâmica brancavela de ignição inservívelreaproveitamentoWhite ceramic materialunusable spark plugsreutilizationmasterThesisCNPQ::ENGENHARIAS::ENGENHARIA MECANICA
