Influence of transition metal ion (mn4+) on mullite formation in a mixture of 50:50 Nigerian kaolin and calcined alumina

In the present investigation, 5 wt% chemical grade MnO2 was added in a mixture of 50:50 Nigerian sources of kaolin and superfine calcined alumina powder and effect of this transition metal ion on their physico-mechanical properties, phase and microstructural evolution were studied during heating in...
