Effect of soda-lime glass on sintering and technological properties of porcelain stoneware tiles

Sanitser, an innovative sanitary ware body, formulated with waste glass and recycled materials

“…Previous researches, on the use of waste glasses in industrial products, have been published proving that such material can be an alternative to traditional constituents [8][9][10][11][12]. In particular, waste glass can replace feldspar, as reported in many papers in literature, in ceramic bodies [13][14][15][16][17]. Although from the literature [18][19][20] it is obvious that for ceramics formed by slip casting the presence of glass causes problems on stabilizing the cast slip, in this study these problems were overcame with proper measurements.…”

Incorporation of solid wastes in red ceramics: an updated review

“…Youssef et al [86] mentioned that the addition of 33 wt.% of soda lima glass to a kaolin based ceramic was a promising procedure to fabricate floor tiles. Matteucci et al [87] observed that the glass addition to a clay body did not significantly alter the processing and properties of all tiles. Morelli and Baldo [88] found that the introduction of a glassy residue tends to decrease the firing temperature required for clay body consolidation.…”

“…The incorporation of glassy residues to clay ceramic products is a viable alternative due to the good compatibility between the clay and the common soda lime glass structures. Since more than 50 years ago, works have been dedicated to the incorporation of glass to clayey ceramics [84][85][86][87][88][89][90][91][92].…”

O uso de vidro reciclado na confecção de membranas para microfiltração

“…Produtos mais elaborados como a confecção de peças refratárias a base de vidro reciclado [18], compósitos vítreos sinterizados, de elevada resistência termo-mecânica [19] ou porcelanas domésticas para microondas, aonde adições de vidro reciclado elevam a eficiência de aquecimento [20], são alguns dos produtos em desenvolvimento que fazem uso de vidro descartado.…”
