摘要

This paper reports the production of ceramics using CRT(cathode ray tube)glass and red mud by varying the amount of waste glass and firing from 700-950℃.The raw materials were characterized using chemical composition,IR(infra-red spectroscopy),XRD(X-ray diffraction),DSC-TGA(differential scanning calorimetry-thermo gravimetric analyses)and SEM(scanning electron microscopy)analysis.The ceramic specimen was produced by mixing a constant quantity of red mud and 0%-40%of waste glass,then firing from 700-950℃.The linear shrinkage,water absorption,apparent porosity,bulk density,weight loss on ignition,flexural strength and chemical resistance test were used to evaluate the produced ceramics.Raw materials had good fluxing properties which were improved with firing.All the specimens produced had water absorption values below the maximum value of 20% specified by the norm for roofing tiles while specimens with 30%-40% CRT glass and fired at 850°C,and specimens with 20%-40% CRT glass and fired at 950℃ had water absorption values below 10%,which is the norm for ceramic tiles.For specimens 0%-40% CRT glass fired at 950℃,specimens 5%-40% CRT glass fired at 850℃,specimens 10%-40% CRT glass fired at 750℃ and specimen with 20%CRT glass fired at 700℃,water absorption values were all lower than 17% which is ASTM C62 specifications for bricks.The norm of flexural strength for floor tiles>25 MPa but all values were less than 25 MPa.The ceramic shows a maximum loss of 0.10%in HNO3 against 0.06%for NaOH.The two waste materials can effectively be used to produce ceramic materials with good properties.
