To produce ceramics with the best properties and to facilitate ball milling or spray drying a dispersant is normally added to the ceramic slurry.
Ceramic slurry dispersant.
Which dispersant do you think might be more appropriate to use as a starting point to prepare a water based slurry composed of ceramic of micron sized particles.
Ceramic slurry is obtained by mixing ceramic powder carrying vehicle binder and dispersant to produce uniformly dispersed ceramic slurry.
At a high level dispersants are used in ceramic formulations to wet and disperse fine powders in media like water and for rheology control.
Therefore dispersant should be added to make the ceramic particles disperse uniformly within the slurry.
Ammonium citrate and polyethylenimine have been.
It is important to optimize the slurry composition in order to obtain high green density low green shrinkage and sufficient green strength to produce defect free demolding.
