Assessment of the Technological Properties of High Temperature Fired Clayey Ceramics Incorporated with Glass Waste

Abstract:

The incorporation of industrial wastes into clayey ceramics used in civil construction is becoming a worldwide procedure not only to provide an environmentally correct destination for the waste but, in some cases, to improve the ceramic properties. The objective of the present work was to evaluate the effect of incorporation of a glass powder waste from decontamination process of fluorescent lamps into clayey ceramics. This evaluation was performed based on the technological properties of water absorption, linear shrinkage ad flexural strength. The properties evaluation was complemented by optical microscopy structural observation. The glass waste was incorporated in up to 30 wt% and specimens were uniaxially pressed at 20 MPa and fired at a relatively higher temperature of 1000°C. The results confirmed a substantial improvement of both the water absorption and the strength with glass waste incorporation into clayey ceramics.
