Rheological Properties Optimization of Ceramic Compositions: Effect of Plasticizer and Water Content

The rheological properties control of ceramic compositions shaped by extrusion is of major interest for themanufacturers to ensure the final products quality and the profitability of the process. In this context, theFrench Ceramic Society (SFC) and ICAR-CM2T have initiated a research study to characterise the rheologicalbehaviour characterisations of two plastic ceramic bodies: stoneware and terracotta. … Weiterlesen …

Crack Prediction in Sanitaryware Formulations

Cracking is an age old problem in whitewares production. The Cracking Tolerance Number (CTN) is an empirically derived index invented by Imerys/FR to assess the tendency of a sanitaryware body to crack during the drying process [1, 2]. The CTN value helps guide the choice of formulation to allow a production process that has a … Weiterlesen …

Powder- and Suspension-Based Additive Manufacturing of Hardmetals

Additive Manufacturing (AM) is one of the most promising developments currently underway within different kind of industries. It promises new products and applications for the industry and end consumers. However, many different technologies with different names already exist, leading often to confusion due to the use of different names for similar techniques. The Fraunhofer Institute … Weiterlesen …
