Porcelain stones of the Boinaksai deposit in Uzbekistan : A new kind of ceramic raw material

The chemical and mineralogical composition of rocks from the Boinaksai Region of Uzbekistan, and their firing behaviour and possible use in ceramic mixtures as a substitute for quartz-feldspar and quartz-kaolinite rocks, were studied. Rocks (FK-1) containing quartz (over 50%), pyrophyllite (up to 60...

Description
Summary:	The chemical and mineralogical composition of rocks from the Boinaksai Region of Uzbekistan, and their firing behaviour and possible use in ceramic mixtures as a substitute for quartz-feldspar and quartz-kaolinite rocks, were studied. Rocks (FK-1) containing quartz (over 50%), pyrophyllite (up to 60%), and kaolinite (up to 30%), and rocks (FK-2) containing quartz (over 50%), muscovite mica (sericite, 40%), and kaolinite inclusions were examined in particular. Heat-resistant (KTS-1) ceramics consisting entirely of cordierite and electrically insulating (KEI-1) ceramics were prepared from these rocks. Their physical, mechanical, electrical and thermal properties and chemical resistance are noted.
