The KaoIinite‐MuIIite Reaction Series: Ill, The High‐Temperature Phases

Abstract: X-ray diffraction data for the high-temperature phases show that a spinel-type structure develops with marked orientation at about 925°C. This phase is considered to be an aluminum silicon spinel with vacant cation sites. Mullite is thought to be formed by the decomposition of the spinel. Silica is eliminated progressively as metakaolin transforms to the spinel phase and thence to mullite. The X-ray data show variation in the mullite parameters between 1200" and 1400°C. ; at 14OO0C., the composition probably a… Show more

“…Mullite crystallization is a common phenomenon involving the thermal transformation of kaolinite 8 . Nevertheless, the amount of SiO 2 together with the impurities in kaolinite forms a glassy phase and cristoballite to accompany the formation of mullite at a temperature higher than 1000 o C 9,10 . The quantity and development of mullite phase determines the final properties of the products to a great extent.…”

“…The amorphous silica liberated in the course of metakaolinite decomposition is highly reactive, possibly assisted by the formation of a eutectic melt at 990 °C. With regard to the exact structure of the spinel, it is currently under debate (33)(34)(35). Most of the reactions occurring during the firing step of porcelain stoneware are kinetically governed processes.…”

“…7 e 8, respectivamente. A análise térmica diferencial do caulim apresenta um pico endotérmico com seu máximo em 540 °C, referente ao rompimento da estrutura cristalina pela reação de desidroxilação e um pico exotérmico em ~ 980 °C referente à cristalização de mullita ou de um espinélio alumínio-silício [2,[10][11][12] característico da caulinita; na curva temogravimétrica observa-se apenas uma perda de massa a 540 °C de ~ 13,5%, referente à perda de hidroxilas sob a forma de vapor referente à desidroxilação, valor este muito próximo ao valor teórico da caulinita que é de 13,98%. A análise do ATD da zeólita analcima apresentou uma banda endotérmica de baixa intensidade em 210 °C, um pico endotérmico de alta intensidade em ~ 360 °C e outra banda de média intensidade em 650 °C.…”
