A note on the practical value of clay mineralogy in coarse ceramics*
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 March 2018
Abstract
The question is raised as to what extent a study of the clay mineralogy enables the detailed ceramic behaviour of a clay to be predicted. It is indicated that the behaviour of a clay in an industrial process is often controlled by other factors, such as particle size distribution of the clay minerals and firing conditions which must, therefore, also be taken into consideration.
