Thermal expansion as a method for checking the composition of ceramic clays and of studying mineralogical changes during firing
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 March 2018
Abstract
Thermal expansion measurements on unfired ceramic clays have provided a useful rapid method of estimating their quartz contents. Reversible thermal expansion measurements on the fired clay reveal changes in composition with firing, notably the development of cristobalite and of the glassy phase.
