Water is added to the clay orshale in sufficient quantities to permit laminar flow through theextrusion machine. The consistency of the extrudate may vary from stiffand ca

Otherthermal mechanisms such as sintering and interparticle reaction may beresponsible for the bond.The higher the heat treatment, the greater the extent of bonding andconsequently the greater the developed strength and the lower theresulting porosity. The bond developmen

The extent of firing is a function of both time and temperat

When the molds are wetted to preventsticking, the product is water-struck brick.pressing, vshaping of brick by pressing clay or shale into amold cavity which forms the peripheral dimensions of thebrick.DISCUSSIONDifferent subclassifications of pre

24、ssing are defined bythe quantity of water mixed with the clay or shale.Dry pressing uses high forming pressures and low water contentsusually between 0 and 5 %.Plastic pressing uses low pressures and sufficient water to produce aplastic mixture.Semi-dry pressing uses intermediate pressures and water

26、 a clay masonryunit during immersion at prescribed conditions expressed inrelation to the dry weight of the unit.DISCUSSIONTwo conditions of immersion are designated in stan-dards relating to brick: 24 h in room temperature (6086F(15.530C) water or5hinboiling water. (Different time intervals arespec

27、ified for structural tile and other products.) The resulting absorp-tions are termed cold water absorption and boiling water absorption.Absorption values are used in brick and tile standards as one factorin classifying these products into durability grades. Absorptions areindicators of the extent of

28、 firing during manufacture as well as beingindicators of durability.impervious, adjdescribes the state of having obtained thatdegree of vitrification evidenced visually by resistance topenetration of a specified dye.initial rate of absorption, na measure of the suction ofwater upward into a dry bric

29、k from a bed face during oneminute of exposure.DISCUSSIONInitial rate of absorption (IRA) is a distinct propertythat offers different information from absorption. It is expressed asgrams of water picked up in one minute by a net area of 30 in.2(194cm2).Initial rate of absorption is one factor influe
