Glass-Crystalline Materials of a Cellular Structure, Formed by Vibration Foaming Technology
A method for producing cellular materials on a glass-crystalline matrix has been developed. The formation of a porous structure is ensured by the process of gas formation, combined with a vibration effect on the raw mass. The possibility of gaining the plastic strength of the raw mass, sufficient for fixing the cellular structure of the raw material without adding binders, has been established. The main component of the raw material mixture is a finely ground filler, obtained after grinding glass-crystalline frit of a specially selected composition. For its formation pre-compacted raw masses, containing natural silica and glass-forming additives, are heated. There was investigated the joint influence of the compositions formulation and the roasting parameters on the properties indicators of the glass composite.
