Firing Behavior of the Clay Fraction of a Natural Kaolinitic Clay: Are They Different?

Abstract: A comparative investigation on the firing behavior of a natural kaolinitic clay from Campos dos Goytacazes, Brazil, and its specific clay fraction was performed. The clay fraction, equivalent diameter less than 2 μm, was separated from the precursor clay by a sedimentation method. Chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy were used to characterize the unfired materials. Thermoanalysis and dilatometry were applied to follow the structural transformations. The firing behavior wa… Show more

“…However, the lower percentage of Fe 2 O 3 was responsible to provide a lighter red color after sintering. In addition, it is possible to observe a relatively high percentage of Al 2 O 3 , which tends to increase the CB refractoriness, when compared to other clays used to produce roo ng tiles with recognized technical quality [32]. The loss on re (LoF) comes mainly from the dehydroxylation of the clay minerals and the gibbsite [33].…”

“…On heat treatment of 1100 °C, the peak intensities of quartz and microcline decreased while the new peak of mullite (3Al 2 O 3 •2SiO 2 ) appeared at 26.26 according to JCPDS #15‐0776. This mullite phase was formed by a spinel‐type structure transformation and has amorphous silica as a by‐product, as shown in Equation () 25,26 trueright3()2normalAl2O33SiO2Spineltype2()3normalAl2O32SiO2Mullite+5SiO2Amorphoussilica…”
