Simple tests, as developed for daily production of electrical porcelain are given.Laboratory tests are described and results for a number of ceramic insulating materials are given. From these it is shown that mechanical strength and resistance to thermal shock are valuable indications of the mechanical properties of bodies and glazes. Results obtained in testing foreign-and American-made porcelains are compared.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
