Preparation and characterization of low-cost high-performance mullite-quartz ceramic proppants for coal bed methane wells

In this study, the mullite-quartz-based proppants were successfully prepared by using the coal gangue as the raw materials. Then, the effects of the additive and the sintering temperature on the composition, microstructure, and properties of the proppants were investigated. Results showed that the p...
