Caracterização e aplicações industriais de argilas da região centro-sul do Estado de Sergipe.

Abstract

Forty five clay samples from Centry-South Country Sergipe, were studied in laboratory tests aimed at their application in ceramic industry. Those samples were distributed as locations of ocurrence as: município de Itabaianinha (sevemeen clay samples); município de Itabaiana (eleven clay samples); município de Lagarto (seven clay samples); município de Campo do Brito (two clay simples); mutucípio de Boquim (two clay samples); município de Simão Dias (one clay samples); município de Tobias Barreto to (two clay samples); município de Santa Luzia do Itanhy (two clay samples); município de Estancia (one clay samples). The samples were analysed by characterization and techonologics tests wich had been Identifred those problabe uses of folowing ceramic industries. Also presented the linear correlations, by least square method, between the determined last at XXo by different methods and correlations. The results obtained allowed to identify the next probable ceramic industrial uses: a) Heavy ware - comom bricks = twenty-five samples; hallow bricks = twenty-Jive samples; tiles = twenty-five samples; pipes = twenty-five samples; floor tile = seven samples and light agregates = five samples.
