RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FORMING METHODS AND MOSITURE CONTENT
4 Important Range
2 ranges with higher moisture content:
Casting and Mixing
- Refer to region in fluid form (involving deflocculant
to maximise solid content in water)
2 ranges with lower water content:
Dry pressing and Plastic forming

Whats rheology?
Hence 3 parameters that need to be controlled :
(i) slip density :
(mass/volume)
(ii) viscosity :
relative internal resistance in relation to
movement at other positions
(iii) thixotropy :
the ability of slip to be more viscous when
remain undisturbed
Generally : rheology is controlled by the
charactersitics of the clay used

Yield stress
D & E – slip without deflocculant.
High viscosity. Shows yield stress, that is - it
requires a small force before flowing (close
to plastic making body)
Therefore, 3 slip properties need to be
measured :
Slip density
Fluidity (kebendaliran) or viscosity
thixotropy
How to measure????
Use of viscometer:-
Manual (old method):
Brookfield Viscometer
There is no specific values to indicate that the
slip is suitable (pending on products)

thixotropy

deflocculant ..why??
