Abstract

The effect of water glass with different silica moduli on the properties of slips is investigated. It is found that as the silica modulus increases, the efficiency of water glass as a liquefying agent grows. It is demonstrated that water glass - sodium tripolyphosphate and water glass - sodium polyacrylate as complex electrolytes are more efficient than each electrolyte separately. The highest drying rate is observed in the slip containing sodium polyacrylate and the lowest rate in the slip with sodium tripolyphosphate.
