Effect of moulding humidity on the properties of dry pressed ceramic tiles

by Radomir Sokolar

Abstract
The aim of the work was to describe moulding humidity influence on the properties of dry pressed ceramic tiles from fly ash - clay mixture (70 % fly ash and 30 % stoneware clay). It was determined properties of green body (bulk density) and fired body (water absorption, bending strength, bulk density and apparent porosity according to EN ISO 10545 standards) by the mathematical functionalities.

KEYWORDS: Dry pressed ceramic tiles, pressing water content, bulk density, water absorption, green ceramic body, fired ceramic body.
