ABSTRACT

The glass-ceramics composed of coal bottom ash produced from a thermal power plant, Na2O and Li2O as a flux agent and TiO2 as a nucleation agent were fabricated and its microstructures were analyzed. The nepheline was a major crystal phase in the glass-ceramics fabricated and its amount increased with TiO2 addition. The glass-ceramics without TiO2 addition had the thick surface crystals induced by a surface-crystallization mechanism and no crystal in the interior matrix. The surface crystallization, however, was restrained and the interior matrix was completely crystallized showing dendrite shape spread with fine particles < 1 μm when added with TiO2 above 4 wt%. For the glass-ceramics containing 6 wt% TiO2, the 5 μm-long dendrite crystals were interlocked each other which could suppress the crack propagation effectively at the external loading applied.
