Some Ceramic Properties of Halloysite

The analysis of four clays originating in Utah indicates that they consist almost entirely of the mineral halloysite. Extruded specimens of these clays show particle alignment and on firing produce large differential shrinkages. The properties of one of the clays were investigated after a low‐temper...

Zusammenfassung:The analysis of four clays originating in Utah indicates that they consist almost entirely of the mineral halloysite. Extruded specimens of these clays show particle alignment and on firing produce large differential shrinkages. The properties of one of the clays were investigated after a low‐temperature calcination process. In all cases excessive shrinkages were observed that may be explained on the basis of particle structure.
