Abstract

This work focuses on the reaction between kaolin and natural phosphate. Four mixtures were prepared by varying the kaolin content 20–80% by weight with a step of 20. All powders were ground and dried and then pressed in cylindrical form. Finally, the samples were sintered at 1300 °C for 2 h under static air. The reactions and the phase transformations of the powders were studied by X-ray diffraction (X-ray diffraction), infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and SEM. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the mixing of two raw materials produces several composites with different amounts (HAp, anorthite, β-TCP and mullite). The presence of the different composites was confirmed by micrographic observations. The results showed that the 20K samples had a high degree of densification and a low open porosity.
