Effects of some factors on centrifugal casting of oxide ceramics

Conclusions It is shown that in technically suitable conditions for shaping blanks by centrifugal casting, the deposition of the particles occurs with a streamline schedule, and the coarse fractions are deposited during acceleration of the rotation of the mold. The main factor influencing the density of the finely dispersed blanks is the duration of rotation, and for systems containing coarse filler, centrifugal acceleration. Regulating the dimensions (wall thickness) of the blank is possible by altering the concentration of solid phase in the slip and the degree of filling of the mold with it.Translated from Ogneupory, No. 1, pp. 22–24, January, 1992.
