Effect of Lepidolite on Mechanical Properties of Mullite-Corundum Composite Ceramics Prepared By Low Temperature Sintering of Bauxite Tailings
With bauxite tailings as the main raw material, adding bauxite clinker and lithium chinaite to prepare the traditional mulite-corundum multiphase ceramics, adding different contents of lepidolite, to explore the influence of the properties of mulite-corundum multiphase ceramics. The phase composition and morphology of ceramics were analyzed by X-ray diffractometer and scanning electron microscope. The effects of lepidolite content and sintering temperature on the mechanical properties of ceramics were studied. The results show that: The addition of lepidolite can reduce the sintering temperature and improve the strength of ceramics. When 10% lepidolite is added and the sintering temperature is 950 ℃, the strength of mulite-corundum multiphase ceramics is the highest, and the ceramics phase composition is corundum, mullite, quartz, hematite, rutile and glass, and the volume density is 1.75 g/cm3, the thermal conductivity is 0.447 W/(m·K), the linear shrinkage is 5.47%, and the compressive strength is 74.87 MPa. It has a wide application prospect in the fields of thermal storage ceramics and refractory materials.
