Influence of organic additives on the efficiency of process of preparation of molding compounds for magnesium silicate ceramic

摘要

The influence of Litoplast series additives on the rheological properties of clay-free magnesium silicate slip is investigated. The use of Litpolast grinding intensifiers makes it possible to decrease the duration of grinding of commercial slip by 3 - 7%. The use of Litoplast M dispersing agents separately and in combination with inorganic surface-active substances substantially reduces the moisture content of commercial slip without the slip losing its rheological properties. This substantially reduces the energy costs in subsequent production of molding compounds. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media New York.
