Effect of Alumina (Al₂O₃) to the Properties of Whiteware Porcelain

Abstract:

The effect of Al₂O₃ to the properties of whiteware porcelain such as water absorption, bulk density, flexural strength and crystalline phases were studied systematically. The result shows that the addition of alumina at maximum 5 wt.% in porcelain bodies increased the flexural strength of the fired bodies which can reach 55.5 MPa, 30% higher than 0.0% alumina content. However, slight decrease in the other physical and mechanical properties was observed with Al₂O₃ addition higher than 5 wt.%, which is believed to be due to increased corundum phase compared to mullite phase in porcelain body.
