Abstract

In this study, the effects of heating rate and sintering temperature on the strength, firing shrinkage, and bulk density of porcelain tiles are investigated. Experiments were designed as a 32 full-factorial experimental design, with the individual effects of two main factors and their interaction being determined. Strength, firing shrinkage, and bulk density values were analyzed using a MINITAB 17 statistical software program. It was found that the interaction of heating rate*sintering temperature affects strength, firing shrinkage, and bulk density values and that as a main factor, the effect of sintering temperature is significant.
