Abstract:Drying is a thermodynamic process in which the moisture contained in the solid is removed by evaporation through the supply of an appreciable amount of thermal energy. It is recognized as a critical and intricate stage in the manufacturing process of ceramic materials. In general, drying at higher temperatures and lower air-relative humidity provokes severe hydric, thermal, and mechanical fractures in the ceramic parts, thus reducing product quality after the process. Then, this process must be realized under … Show more
