| Title of the article | The influence of chemical and mineral constitution of clays on their drying properties |
| Abstract. | Five clays representing smectite group with different chemical and mineral constitution are studied with a view to make a reasonable choice of the process parameters of the green brick drying. Technological and drying parameters studies were carried out and some macroexamination as well. The influence of the grain size composition on the technological parameters of clays and their drying and firing behavior are studied and measured. Some essential influence patterns of the structure and composition of different clays on their drying sensitivity, molding water content, drying shrinkage and strength of a dry sample are shown. In particular, the assumptions on the influence of quartz and some minerals containing carbonate on the water interaction pattern are made. Water filtration of the clays of incoherent and dense structures is studied. |
