MECHANO-CHEMICALFABRICATIONOF NON-FIRING CERAMIC
Keywords:
Non-firing ceramic, novel route, mechano-chemical, solidificationAbstract
Novelroute for non-firing ceramic was successfully fabricated in this paper. This study is particularly taking advantage of mechanochemically assisted chemical solidification for improving mechanical strength of ceramic green body. This method allows the surface activation of powder and control of the properties of powder not only by varying mechano-chemical treatment but also by managing the chemical solidification by alkaline binding. After drying at 25oC for 3 days, the ceramic green body (non-firing ceramic) was obtained. The results revealed that mechano-chemicaltreatment has a certain effect on the total bonding (Potassium ananate, KAlH4) and mechanical strength of non-firing ceramic. An increase in total number bond and high strength was obtained with milling time of mechano-chemical process.
