Abstract

This project aims to investigate the effect of heating rate of sintering on glass waste composite. The raw material used for the composite is glass waste and spent bleaching earth. The glass waste is crushed to get pieces of glass sample with size of 2 to 3 mm. The glass pieces are ground using planetary ball grinding machine. Powder glass formed will be sieved using 75 μm siever. The glass powder is mixed with SBE with composition 70:30 respectively. The mixed powder is then compacted using a uniaxially manual hand press. The sample is sintered in a furnace for 15 minutes at 750ᵒC with cooling rate of 2ᵒC/min and 3 different heating rate; 2ᵒC/min, 4ᵒC/min and 6ᵒC/min. 2ᵒC/min sample shows high crystallinity in XRD and highest density. 6ᵒC/min sample figure shows highest porosity in SEM and lowest Vickers hardness. In thermal expansion test 6ᵒC/min also showing lowest expansion. Low heating rate is suitable to improve mechanical properties while high heating rate is suitable for thermal expansion and low density application.
