WHAT IS THE PROCESS OF MAKING CERAMICS?
The traditional method for making ceramics is given below in steps. 1. Milling 2. Batching 3. Mixing 4. Forming 5. Drying 6. Sintering 1. Milling : This is a process by which materials are reduced size from large size to small size. Milling may involve various techniques of breaking a material which is also called pulverization. It means grinding the particles in smaller size. These various mechanical processes are attrition, compression, impact etc. In attrition mill, The particles are break up due to collision of particles itself. It creates shearing to each other and breaks it. In compression mill, It includes jaw crusher or roller crusher or cone crusher. They puts compression load on material and their particles breaks in small size. In impact mill, The include the ball mill which has give the impact load or sudden load on material by which the material break through and convert into small size. 2. Batching : This is the process of weighing the oxides accor
