Porous Ceramics Produced from Glass and Clay

Abstract

Porous ceramics as sustainable material can become and, in some industries, already are used to achieve environmental applications considering their properties. Research on important composition properties helps to identify the best product to be used in construction industry with a priority of a minimum number of raw materials and simplest and energy-efficient technology during production process. The elaborated research identifies compositions with glass waste, clay, and soot with minimum volume density within the range of chosen product line. Water absorption, thermal conductivity, and compressive strength were researched to identify possible applications of elaborated material in construction industry.
