“…Clays are fine-grained materials composed of clay minerals, which are hydrated alumino-silicates belonging to the mineral groups of kaolin, smectite, palygorskite, sepiolite, illite, chlorite, and mixed-layered clays (Aghris et al 2021, Perelomov et al 2021, Belghazdis and Hachem 2022. Fireclay, which is one of the most popular refractories, is a type of clay that belongs to the aluminosilicate group of refractory materials and is extensively applied in the ceramics industry due to its high fusion temperatures (Antonovi et al 2022).…”

High-performance materials, systems, and processes have necessitated the exploration of very high-temperature environments. Materials, particularly ceramics, which can withstand these high temperatures, have been extensively studied, even though enough emphasis has not been given to clays sourced locally in Nigeria, where there is an abundance. Also, stochastic optimization techniques has been employed to improve on system or carry out experimentation with minimal spend of resources and very high accuracy. This work extensively explored the refractory properties of blends developed from locally sourced clays (Mayo Ndaga and kachalla Sembe and Kona). The Taguchi optimization technique was employed to determine the effect of various quantities of the clays on the loss on ignition (LOI), refractoriness (RF), and firing shrinkage (FS) of the blends. It was discovered that the optimum (lowest) loss on ignition, highest refractoriness, and lowest firing shrinkage were 11%, 1333°C, and 0.48%, respectively. Analysis of variance also proved the significance of Mayo Ndaga on the refractoriness and firing shrinkage of the blends, with P-values of 0.038 and 0.000 at a 95% confidence level.

Nitrophenols (e. g., para nitrophenol), although they have beneficial properties, their residuals are injurious to the environment owing to their high lethal potential for many categories of nature (e. g. animals, humans, plants, etc.), which require their monitoring. In this paper, a new Clay/green reduced graphene oxide composite (Clay/rGO) was efficaciously synthesized and utilized as an excellent modifier for carbon paste electrode (CPE) for the electro‐analytical determination of paranitrophenol (PNØ). The electrochemical futures and reduction of PNØ at the surface of the as‐prepared Clay/rGO˧CPE have been executed using DPV differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The use of the EIS provided that the Clay/rGO˧CPE facilitate the electron exchange process. By using the DPV technique in phosphate buffer (PB) under biological pH (7) (PB_7) the prepared monitor exhibited an excellent linearity relationship in the concentration ranges from 1.0 to 1000.0 μM with a detection limit (DL=3×σ/P) of 0.16 μM and a quantification limit of (QL=10×σ/P) of 0.54 μM. The Clay/rGO˧CPE offered high selectivity and a satisfactory concert in the electroanalytical sensing of PNØ in wastewater sample.
