초록
Six samples from Meskine ball clay deposit were investigated to infer their properties, and potential use in the ceramicindustry. Characterization of crude clays involved particle size distribution, plasticity, chemical and mineralogical composition. Fired properties of clays were measured in terms of linear shrinkage, bending and compressive strength, bulk density andwater absorption. Samples found to be mainly very heavy plastic clays. It appears that the Meskine ball clays are suitable formaking solid bricks. The alkali and alkaline earth oxide compositions are moderate with average 7.73 wt.%. Kaolinite is thedominant mineral associated with quartz, smectite, feldspars, goethite, anatase and gibbsite. These mineralogical, physical,chemical and technological features show that Meskine clays are commercial ball clay used in the ceramic industry. At 1100oC, the fired products are yellowish red. The sound is metallic; bulk density varies between 1.7 and 1.8 Kg/cm3. Waterabsorption is below 22%. Bending and compressive strength are slightly higher with respective average of 22.66 Mpa and 40.06Mpa. All these parameters compared to the Italian standards reveal that the Meskine clays are suitable for the manufactureof wall tiles, floor tiles and for roof tiles.
