GEL CASTING OF ALUMINA CERAMICS USING AN EGG WHITE PROTEIN BINDER SYSTEM
Egg white protein (EW) is a food ingredient commonly used for its gelling properties and has been applied in ceramic fabrication. In this work, EW was used as an environmentally-friendly binder for gelcasting alumina ceramics at elevated temperature (80°C). The gelling behavior was compared with the...
