Abstract

The paper proposes to use white clay with the highest apparent density to improve the production of wire-ceramic resistors. Preliminary studies of white clay have shown that it is more sensitive to drying than red clay. The intensity of moisture output from the center of the product to its surface during the manufacturing process and the drying characteristics of white clay give greater shrinkage and strength of dry samples. Linear and nonlinear multiple regression models with and without multicollinearity are considered to find the dependence of the apparent density of clay raw materials on humidity and pressing pressure. To clarify the model structures, a two-stage approach is used, which involves building a model for residuals. It is found that the combination of a multiple regression model taking into account multicollinearity with an AR model constructed for residues makes it possible to calculate the apparent density of clay raw materials with the smallest standard deviation from experimental data. The obtained model structures will be used to determine the optimal parameters of forming ceramic samples: the moisture content of clay raw materials and the compaction pressure, at which the greatest apparent density of samples is achieved. This will improve the production technology of wire-ceramic resistors. The use of wire-ceramic resistors based on white clay with the highest apparent density will speed up one of the stages of the technological process – drying and reduce their hygroscopicity. As a result of the use of wire-ceramic resistors with the highest apparent density, the mechanical strength of the products will increase, which will improve the operational characteristics and prolong the life of the products.
