Abstract

Ceramic based materials covered with a mixture of mullite and zircon on the top, strengthened by the addition of zinc and magnesium compounds at different rates (37% and 50%) and made by a co-precipitation method are studied. The thermally treated and shaped materials prepared in the shape of cylindrical samples were modified to obtain different porosities. The addition of zinc to the ceramic based material leads to a significant increase and control of the density of porosity compared to the addition of magnesium. The porosity of all the materials was characterized. The permeability characteristics and the ability for all the pellets to absorb water until the saturation were also studied as a function of the porosity.
