Porous ceramics were produced by compaction method of Nigerian clay and cassava starch. The samples were prepared by adding an amount from 5 to 30%wt of cassava starch into the clay and sintered at temperature of 900-1300°C. The influence of cassava starch content on the bulk density and apparent porosity was studied. The result of XRD and DTA/TGA shows that the optimum sintering temperature was found to be 1300°C. The percentage porosity increased from 12.87 to 43.95% while bulk density decreased from 2.16 to 1.46g/cm3 with the increase of cassava starch from 5 to 30%wt. The effect of sintering temperature and cassava starch content improved the microstructure in terms of porosity and the thermal properties of porous clay for various applications which requires a specific porosity.

A new-type foam composites were fabricated by baking method from a mixture of cassava starch. A central composite design was constructed using the software Statistics Analysis System 9.0 to evaluate the static compression stress of foamed material. The optimum dosages of adhesive, foaming agent, catalyst were 2.0g, 6.0g, 2.4g, respectively; reaction temperature 65°C; reaction time 16 hour.
