Development of Self-Glazing Ceramic Facing Material Based on Low-Plasticity Clay

Аннотация

A batch composition for facing ceramic based on low-plasticity clay with an additive containing boric acid and lithium carbonate as fluxes as well as titanium dioxide as a strengthening additive was developed. The influence of the additives on the formation of the structure, composition, and basic operational properties of the obtained ceramic was investigated. It is shown that it is possible to produce a ceramic material possessing the property of self-glazing of the surface of articles and meeting the requirements of articles for the facing of the socles of buildings and structures.
