Abstract

The effect of mechanical activation (MA) of the precursor mixture of raw materials and/or the parent glass, on the microstructure and physical and mechanical properties of iron-rich glass-ceramic materials of the system SiO2-B2O3-BaO-Fe2O3, has been studied. MA of the materials is conducted for 0, 2 or 6h using a high energy attrition milling device. Crystallization treatments are given to the parent glass at 650, 750 or 850°C for 5h. Crystallization of the samples is promoted by increased treatment temperature, and especially also by double MA at 850°C. With increasing crystallization temperature, both the density and the compressive strength increase, while porosity decreases. However, at 850°C, prolonged MA decreases both the density and the compressive strength due to an increment in porosity caused by the growth of the BaFe12O19 crystals.
