REFRACTORY CERAMICS SYNTHESIS BY SOLID-STATE REACTION BETWEEN CaCO₃ (MOLLUSK SHELL) AND Al₂O₃ POWDERS

Calcium aluminate-based refractory ceramic was developed as an innovative refractory material, using garden snail (Helix aspersa) shells as a natural source of CaCO₃. A 1:1 molar ratio mixture of CaCO₃ from snail shells and commercial Al₂O₃ powder was prepared by means of high-energy mechanical mil...
