General consideration of compacting phenomena of ceramic clay powder under static pressure, effects of applied pressure on density and permeability in specified layers in green body were studied.
About the initial state of compacting process, the following expression were established,
P=
c(
w-1-
w0-1)δ
2where,
P is applied pressure, δ the displacement,
w the weight of charged powder,
c and
w0 the constants defined only by the properties of powder.
The singular increase of displacement of powder, occured at the end of initial compacting state, were recognized and that is considered to be raised by the entire destruction of “BRIDGE STRUCTURE” constituted in compacting body.
Further, the change of permeability along the pressing direction in green body perform a curve with inflection point in a case of spherical powder.
Finally we observed that the Smith's and Kieffer's formulas for metal powder could not established experimentally in pressing of ceramic clay powders, in general.
