Definitions
- the present invention relates to a porous ceramic material, to a process for the preparation thereof as well as to its use. More particularly, the present invention relates to a ceramic material on the basis of mineral fibres and clay as ceramic binder, said material having a low density, from 350 to 800 kg/m 3 , a low thermal conductivity at room temperature, from 0.10 to 0.16 W/mK, and non-inflammabi li ty according to British Standard BS 476 part 4. Its resistance to elevated temperatures depends on the starting materials used and amounts, e.g. when using diabase rock wool and ball clay, to max. 1050 oC and when using ceramic fibres and refractory clay e.g. to 1600 oC. Said material exhibits convenient strengths with regard to low bulk density - bending strength from 0.1 to 3.0 MPa, compressive strength from 2.0 to 10 MPa - and has open porosity from 75 to 90 %.
- the novel material according to the invention can be used for non-supoorting heat-insulating walls and as heat-insulating filler for supporting walls; for heat insulating and non-inflammable linings of walls, floors and ceilings; for interior acoustic decorative linings; for insulation of thermic devices up to a certain high temperature with regard to the starting materials employed; for fire-proof linings of steel constructions and other building constructions; for fire-proof linings in furniture parts as well as in shipbuilding.
- the porosity of ceramic clay articles can be affected by adding different inorganic as well as organic substances (cf. H. Schmidt, Ziegelindustrie Int., 9, 500 (1978) and British patent 1 478 904).
- inorganic insulating materials expanded perlite, expanded vermiculite, diatomaceous earths, asbestos fibres are cited as additives, whereas the addition of mireral fibres is not mentioned.
- the objective of the present invention is a porous ceramic material, which consists of mineral fibres and clay, the weight ratio of mineral fibres/clay being from 9:1 to 3:7. Said ratio relates to the composition of raw materials as to dry weight of components as well as in the final product.
- mineral fibres all known mineral fibres can be used, such as rock wool (basalt type and diabase type), slag wool, glass wool, ceramic fibres and also waste fibres obtained in the production of articles made of mineral fibres.
- clays can be used (ball clays, ceramic and refractory clays, bentonite, kaolin).
- Typical chemical composition of ball clay is as follows :
- the weight ratio of mineral fibres/clay from 7:3 to
- the length of mineral fibres in the final article is less than 6 mm.
- the technological process for manufacturing ceramic material consists of mixing raw materials, forming crude products, drying and firing, and it is also an object of the present invention.
- the process is characterized in that a pumpable aqueous suspension of clay is prepared, mineral fibres and optionally water are added up to the ratio of mineral fibres/clay from 9:1 to 3:7, the suspension is kept homogeneous by stirring, then the raw mixture is formed by means of sucking off the excess of water by vacuum in moulds with reticular bottom until no significant amounts of water can be removed any more, the formed pieces are dried, conveniently at about 100 °C, and fired at temperatures between 800 and 1000 °C.
- the production can take place in existing tile industry.
- the process can be carried out continuously and automated to the desired degree.
- Said process provides that the fibres are homogeneously dispersed in materials and equally oriented in all directions. Thus better mechanical properties of products are achieved. Owing to their porosity crude products are very quickly dried in comparison with tile articles.
- the aqueous suspension of clay should have such a density that it is appropriate for decanting or pumping.
- Suitable compositions are in weight ratio of clay to water 1:1 to 1:2.
- the suspension can be made from wet worked up clay or dry ground clay.
- wet clays tilery working-up process is sufficient, all admixtures in clay being crushed under 2 mm.
- dry clays the exploited crude clay should be dried and then ground to a fineness of less than 0.5 mm.
- the aqueous suspension in water is prepared in both cases in a vessel with a propeller mixer.
- the obtained suspension is then decanted into a larger collecting vessel, equipped with a stirrer for maintaining the homogeneity of suspension.
- composition of a final product taking into account losses at work, of 40 % of clay and 60 % of mineral fibres, by weight.
- the quantities fed into the stirring vessel can be varied as to the desired final composition of the formed article.
- the slurry is pumped from a collecting reservoir, equipped with a stirrer, into a mould where it spreads like a liquid.
- the mould consists of a frame 1 and a metal net 2 and is placed on a plate 3 of a moulding device.
- a plate 3 of a moulding device In the plate there is an opening 4, which leads into a chamber 6, which chamber is connected to a rotatory vacuum pump with water sealing as it is used e.g. in the technology of asbestos-cement products.
- a net 5 made of plastic fabric with apertures between 0.25 and 0.5 mm.
- a rubber seal 7 between the plate 3 and the frame 1 of the mould, which secures minimum losses of underpressure at sucking off the excessive water from the slurry.
- the underpressure is switched on by a valve 8 on the tube coming from the vacuum pump.
- the weight of materials after sucking off water reduces for 45 %, i.e. from 100 l of slurry there is obtained a semi- manufactured product of 55 l.
- the volume of the raw mixture of fibres/clay/water should be foreseen with regard to the volume of the formed article. Sucking off is continued until no water can be seen on the surface and for a further period until no significant amounts of water percolate any more. E.g. a layer of a thickness of 7 cm has proved to be sucked off to said degree within about a minute.
- the frame is separated from the formed product and the raw article is transferred mechanically or by means of a vacuum handle to drying nets.
- drying rooms as used in tilery are suitable for drying, e.g. drying chambers or drying tunnels with internal hot-air recirculation.
- Dry semi-manufactured products achieve sufficient strength for further manipulation at being put into the kiln.
- the conventional kilns for tilery such as circular kilns, chamber kilns or tunnel kilns.
- the firing temperature and the firing period are the same as used in firing tile products, i.e. between 800 and 1000 °C, and the complete cycle period lasts from 50 hours on, depending upon the kiln.
- a picture taken by a scanning electronic microscope shows a broken surface area of the material, wherein there can be seen a well preserved fibrous texture and the ceramic binding phase over it.
- each fibre is soaked with the clay suspension, whereby in the firing phase there is achieved a good ceramic bond between individual fibres or flocks of fibres. This results in a compact porous ceramic material with satisfactory mechanical properties and good thermal characteristics.
