| Abstract Scope |
This paper deals with the evaluation of the potential of ceramic soil mass of Itaperuna/RJ, Brazil, to produce pressed ceramic blocks. The physical analysis indicated the presents 37.8% of clay and density of 2,57 g/cm³. The chemical analysis was done using dispersive energy equipment, presenting high levels of silicon dioxide and aluminum oxide, indicate that the soil has refractory properties. The mineral analysis, performed by means of an X-ray diffractometer, showed the presence of Caulinite, Quartz, Mica Muscovite and Gibsta, and the first showed higher levels of indication of concentration, plastic characteristic of the sample tested. The ATD and TG curves in the temperature at the firing temperature of most ceramics of the Campos Ceramics Pole, RJ, Brazil, 889°C, do not identify the presence of thermal transformation peaks. It was concluded that the analyzed ceramic mass presents viability of use in the production of ceramic blocks. |
