Abstract
Used glass bottles have remained useless. It is, thus, the present purpose how the used bottles can be processed and changed to the insulation materials technologically. After the used glass bottles are grounded into <50μ powder by a mortar or a ball-mill in ethyle alcohol, the obtained slurry powder is mixed with carbonate and others. Such slurry, then, is pressed under the pressure of 20MPa and heated at 800°C for 10min. in the air. Judging from the results of many physical and mechanical tests of the finally obtained materials, i.e., porous ceramics, we propose that the porous ceramics could be used as the insulation materialse.
