| Abstract |
| Two clays from Cannanore district of Kerala have been assessed, both
from mineralogical and ceramic point of view, with the objective of
evaluating their suitability in the pottery industry. The study included
the examination of the chemical, mineralogical and physicochemical
characteristics of the clays. From the results it has been confirmed
that these two clays can easily be used in ceramic industry where fired
colour is not so important. For whiteware industry, however, it rerequires
some processing or some opacifying glaze meterials. |
