Preparation of Porous Ceramics Using Different Pore-Forming Agents

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, porous ceramics having cordierite crystalline phases were made from kaolin, talc and α-alumina at 1200 °C for 1 h. Coal powders and starch were used as pore-forming materials, respectively. Physical and chemical properties and microstructure of two samples were studied. The study results indicate that the pores of starch samples are homogeneous. Compared to coal powders samples, the porosity of starch samples is higher, but the bending strength is lower than that of coal powders samples.
