TLDR
The glass-ceramic material obtained under optimum conditions had high chemical resistance, micro-hardness of 7400 MPa and thermal stability as discussed by the authors, and the final product can be recommended for workshop floorings and storage vessels in chemical industries.
Abstract
Glasses containing iron oxide (12–15 wt%) have been prepared based on thermal power plant wastes, and their crystallization mechanism studied with the help of XRD, DTA and TEM. In the initial stages of crystallization, phase separation took place which led to the formation of hedenbergite. The glass-ceramic material obtained under optimum conditions had high chemical resistance, microhardness of 7400 MPa and thermal stability. The final product can be recommended for workshop floorings and storage vessels in chemical industries.

Utilization of Fly Ash in the Production of Unglazed Semi-Vitreous Tiles

TL;DR: In this paper, a fly ash waste material generated from thermal power stations was used as a complete replacement of quartz and partial replacement of china clay and potash feldspar in the semi-vitreous tile body composition.
