Description

Performing an strain-shrinkage analysis (DSA) on fine ceramic materials and coarse ceramic materials and determining the thermal expansion of tiles and plates, standard heating rate: 5 K/min

DSA in the low temperature range with controlled heating and cooling from -150 °C to 450 °C, 1 K/min

Determination of moisture elongation

Plus production of test specimens:

  • dry-pressed
  • sawn
  • Firing in lightweight refractory bricks (glazes)

Individual temperature programs (e.g. frost/thaw changes) and correction settings

Measurements of glass/glazes (incl. melting and determination of TG and dilatometric softening point)
