Conclusions
In an investigation of the influence of the principal factors on the rate of slip casting quartz ceramics it was established that the density (porosity) of the deposited cast body is the main determining factor in the casting rate. The density of the body depends on the degree of stabilization, the pH, and the granularity of the slip suspension, and on the use of vibration. The casting rate may vary tenfold with the porosity of the casting. The factors which increase the density of the casting reduce the casting rate to the same extent, and vice versa.
The casting rate is influenced, moreover, also by the water/plaster ratio of the mold and by the moisture content (density) of the slip suspension.
