For example, an ultrafine hydrous clay used for efficient TiO2 extension has been reported to also improve exterior durability as well as gloss and gloss retention.5 Other applications where kaolin clays have been cited as functional additives are anti-corrosion paints, high solids paints, moisture-cured systems and automotive …
Since the discovery of kaolin deposits in the region in the 18th century, Limoges has become the national capital of porcelain production. With its long tradition of mastering the fire arts (ceramic arts and glassmaking), today it remains the epicenter of creation as well as of transmitting this knowledge.
Kaolin can be extensively used in the ceramic industry, where its white burning characteristics and high fusion temperature makes it specifically suitable for the manufacture of porcelain, refractories, and whiteware (china). The absence of any alkalies, or alkaline earth, or the iron present in the molecular structure of the kaolinite confers ...
A sample of commercial kaolin from Burela (Lugo, Spain), with applications in the ceramic industry, was used in some determinations for comparison purposes. The kaolin deposit has been produced by alteration of feldspar-rich rocks. This raw kaolin was applied as an additive in local manufactures of ceramics and refractories.
Kaolinite is a mineral belonging to the group of aluminosilicates. It is commonly referred to as "China Clay" because it was first discovered in Kao-Lin, China. The term kaolin is used to describe a group of relatively common clay minerals dominated by kaolinite and derived primarily from the alteration of alkali feldspar and micas.Kaolin is a white, soft, plastic …
