The materials of the article consider the effectiveness of additives for stabilization and dilution of clay-free slippers. For theproduction of radio-transparent ceramic materials of Celsius-Willemite composition, the most efficient and energy-saving methodof production is the method of slip casting. According to the charge composition, this technology is complicated by the lack of claycomponents, which shows the need to use impurities to improve the rheology of such a slip. The main characteristics of aqueousceramic slippers are density, humidity, fluidity, viscosity, density factor, rate of mass accumulation. The slip must meet thefollowing requirements: be free from foam and gas inclusions, have satisfactory fluidity under low viscosity; be aggregativelystable (characterized by the absence of aggregation, coagulation and sedimentation of solid phase particles); have a high filteringcapacity to ensure fast and defect-free weight gain; to be chemically inert, to provide sufficient strength and low shrinkage of semifinished products, as well as the possibility of their easy release from the mold.

Advanced methods for obtaining high-strength glass-ceramic materials based on lithium aluminum silicate glass for glass and ceramic technologies are identified. Were analyzed  forming methods: pressing, thermoplastic molding and slip casting with the definition the advantages and disadvantages of in each of them. The choice of the base LAS system is substantiated and model lithium-aluminum-silicate glasses and glass-ceramic materials based on β-spodumene are synthesized by the methods of pressing, slip casting and thermoplastic molding. The features of the formation of glass-ceramic materials using various technologies are investigated. Technological parameters were established for pressing: molding powder with a fraction size from 63 to 125 μm − 70 vol. %, from 25 to 63 microns − 15 vol. %, less 25 microns − 15 vol. %, xanthan gum solution in an amount of 10 wt. %; for slip casting: slip specific weight − γ = 1852 kg/m3, pH = 9.90; for the thermoplastic formation: paraffin − 15 wt. %, beeswax − 5 wt. %, oleic acid − 1 wt. %. It has been established that the determining influence on the mechanical properties of the developed glass-ceramic materials has the character of their micro- and macrostructures. It has been established that, for the studied glass-ceramic materials, an increase in porosity and pore size significantly affects the magnitude of their compressive strength. Glass-ceramic materials obtained by wet pressing and slip technology can be recommended as the most technologically advanced in creating composite armor elements and promising in the development of high-strength glass-ceramic materials for the local protection of special equipment and technology. Composite structural materials obtained by thermoplastic processing can be used to create high-strength parts for precision mechanisms and instruments, which are subject to stringent requirements for mechanical strength.

In this study, ceramic–metal composites in the Al2O3/Ti/Ni system were fabricated using the slip casting method. Two series of composites with 15 vol.% metal content and different solid phase contents were obtained and examined. A proper fabrication process allows obtaining composites enhanced by intermetallic phases. The microstructure of the base powders, slurries, and sintered composites was analyzed by scanning electron microscope. Analysis of the sedimentation tendency of slurries was carried out. The phase composition of the sintered samples was examined by X-ray diffraction analysis. A monotonic compression test was used to investigate the mechanical properties of the composites. A fractography investigation was also carried out. The research conducted revealed that the slip casting method allows the obtaining of composites enhanced by intermetallic phases (TiNi, Ni3Ti). The results show the correlation between solid-phase content, microstructure, and mechanical properties of the composites.

This work focuses on research on obtaining and characterizing Al2O3/ZrO2 materials formed via slip casting method. The main emphasis in the research was placed on environmental aspects and those related to the practical use of ceramic materials. The goal was to analyze the environmental loads associated with the manufacturing of Al2O3/ZrO2 composites, as well as to determine the coefficient of thermal expansion of the obtained materials, classified as technical ceramics. This parameter is crucial in terms of their practical applications in high-temperature working conditions, e.g., as parts of industrial machines. The study reports on the four series of Al2O3/ZrO2 materials differing in the volume content of ZrO2. The sintering process was preceded by thermogravimetric measurements. The fabricated and sintered materials were characterized by dilatometric study, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and stereological analysis. Further, life cycle assessment was supplied. Based on dilatometric tests, it was observed that Al2O3/ZrO2 composites show a higher coefficient of thermal expansion than that resulting from the content of individual phases. The results of the life cycle analysis showed that the environmental loads (carbon footprint) resulting from the acquisition and processing of raw materials necessary for the production of sinters from Al2O3 and ZrO2 are comparable to those associated with the production of plastic products such as polypropylene or polyvinyl chloride.

Ceramic materials have particular properties when compared to other classes of materials, exhibiting poor ductility as an example. Slip casting is a widely used ceramic forming technique, and already established in the literature and in the ceramic industry. This study aims to present slip casting as a processing route for producing hydroxyapatite (HA) struts, and show the thermal phase stability. The ceramic suspension was produced and stabilized with hydroxyapatite powder, deionized water and polyethylene glycol 400. The slip was poured into gypsum mold. The green bodies were heat treated at 900 and 1100°C. Hydroxyapatite was the only phase present in all samples, before and after heat treatments. Density measurements showed that the densification was higher for the ceramic bodies sintered at 1100°C, when compared to the ones calcined at 900°C.

The use of glass residues for the reduction of firing temperature of ceramic materials products has become an attractive alternative. For pressed or extruded products, such as tiles and bricks, the use of glass is sufficiently simple, since only milling and mixing to the industrial mass batch in partial substitution of conventional fluxes are necessary. However, in slip casting products, such as china and porcelains, the glass presence destabilizes the casting slip. This is the motivation of this work. Different types of dispersants and their influence on the properties of slips containing glass waste were evaluated. The experimental results showed that the use of conventional dispersant (sodium silicate) is not adequate. The stabilization of slips was possible only with organic dispersants. Therefore, the factors that determine the success or failure of dispersants were also analyzed.

The analysis of the performed researches has shown that the offered calculation technique is an effective means of management of formation process in casting. The found dependences and experimental data allow to calculate the specific value of the exactм heat flux in a given range of technological parameters obtained during a series of successful experiments for a particular casting method.Having the results of studies of the temperature regime of the mold during casting of a certain size and profile, it is possible to calculate the thermal state of the mold for the same casting process, but for the production of castings of any other size and profile.Having a certain amount of information on the temperature regime of the mold at different casting methods, you can use the solutions obtained to become the owner of a database containing the necessary information for solving the problems of solidification of the casting. In the subsequent design of equipment and equipment there is no need for additional experimental studies and analysis of the results.
