Industrial Ceramic Form Profile Control through High Degree Vitrification Firing Process

Abstract

In ceramic, firing is the most crucial stage of the whole production process. It's influencing the successfulness of ceramic profile. The successful ceramic profile refers to the delicacy of that particular shape which is the quality of being beautiful and delicate in appearance. However, the mechanical behaviour of clay body during the sintering process affecting the designed profile. Therefore, this study associates the use of Setter as a potential mechanism to systematically controlling ceramic profile; thus, reducing warpage to its designed form during firing.
