Influence of copper oxide on mullite formation from kaolinite

Abstract

Kaolinite transforms to mullite and crystobalite at 1200 °C. The additive copper oxide decreases the transformation temperature by 200 °C. The effect of copper oxide addition and its concentration and transformed products are reported using a combination of X-ray diffraction and thermal analysis.
