Abstract
Based on coal gangue and clay with median particle diameters of 0.22 and 0.21 nm as the main raw materials, starch is used as the pore-forming agent, the mullite porous ceramics are prepared by the hydraulic forming method and the solid sintering method, and the sintering temperature and the amount of clay added are studied. The mechanism influence on the performance of mullite porous ceramics. Through thermogravimetric analysis (TG-DSC), flexural properties, X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mercury intrusion method and other technical methods, the thermal stability, mechanical strength, crystal phase composition, Performance indicators such as microscopic morphology and pore size are characterized. The results show that the mullite porous ceramics prepared under the conditions of sintering temperature of 1300 °C and clay content of 40 wt.% have the best performance, with a porosity of 34%, a bulk density of 1.79 g/cm3, and a volume shrinkage rate. 11.88%, flexural strength of 33.28 MPa, uniform pore distribution and more mature mullite crystals. The research results open a new way to explore the high-value utilization of coal-based wastes.
