STUDY AIMING THE USE OF POWDER WASTE REJECT FROM THE SANITARY WARE PRODUCTION IN MASS FOR RED CERAMICS

摘要

A procedure that comes being studied for the exploitation of powder waste rejected from the sanitary ware production is the incorporation in mass for red ceramics. Objective of this work is to present the results gotten in the incorporation of this rejects. The used clay was from ceramics industries of the Jundiai region, SP. Spherical bodies test samples had been conformed incorporating 1%, 5%, 10%, 20% and 30% of the powder waste in mass. These bodies had been evaluated on compression resistance after dried to 110℃ and to color after burns to 950℃. The composition that presented better results had been conformed by extrusion in prismatic bodies test samples. Again, the dried to 110℃ and burnt to 950℃ bodies test samples had been evaluated on flexion resistance but to linear retraction too. It was measured the ceramic properties of the burnt bodies test samples. Results indicate that there is a great potential in the formula with 30% incorporation of powder waste in mass. Comparative assays were made being used a mixture without incorporation of the denominated white reject.
