Abstract:The main objective of this research is to design alumina/β-eucryptite composite with a low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and then test its sinterability using alum sludge from water treatment plants as an alumina source. A suitable chemical method is used to extract alumina from alum sludge waste. In addition to extracted alumina, silica fume waste and lithium carbonate were used to prepare β-eucryptite. In order to prepare β-eucryptite, the phase formation is first to be adjusted. The prepared sample… Show more
