  • Cratering phenomena: what they are, how they develop and how to manage them
    2024/11/12
    Cratering phenomena are defects that appear as microscopic craters on the surface of ceramic bodies on which an aqueous (and still drying) suspension has been discharged.

    It is an application problem that leads to a misalignment of the suspension due to the presence of one or more dips.

    The problem, that is already visible along the glazing line and not only after the firing process, may arise for several reasons: for example due to the presence of impurity within the ceramic raw materials or because of an improper use of defoamers.

    The episode try to offer a list of the most important causes, pointing out the mechanisms behind the problem, also providing some suggestions to prevent and/or eliminate it.

  • Carboxymethylcellulose: what is it for & how to use it?
    2024/10/28
    CMC are organic compounds, water-soluble polymers derived from cellulose, widely used in several fields of industrial production. In ceramics, sodium CMCs perform multiple functions within suspensions and solutions and can be marked by very different properties depending on the situation.

    What is the main role of this substance in the ceramic production process, and what needs to be done to properly manage it?

  • Plasticity of ceramic mixtures: values and application fields
    2024/10/14
    The plasticity values of ceramic mixtures is a very important issue, since it affects the values and features of the mix and therefore the proper development of the ceramic production process.

    In general, the use of clays marked by high plasticity values is usually synonymous with easier process management.

    However, high-performing clays are not always available and it is therefore important to keep in mind other production parameters, finding a balance or even good compromises.

    After a short definition of this amazing physical property, the episode offers a general overview on the issue.

    Not only in relation to tiles production.
