title = "Production and characterization of potassium mica and cordierite based glass-ceramics",
abstract = "Machinable glass ceramics are materials produced by the similar production methods of melting and casting that all glass ceramics with controlled nucleation and crystallization. In the first stage of this study, glass compositions containing different ratios of potassium mica and cordierite have been prepared, mixed and casted at proper temperatures. 4wt% CeO2 was added as a stabilizer. In the second stage of the experimental studies, disc and cylindrical shaped samples were prepared to determine the microstructural and mechanical properties of the materials in terms of microhardness and machinability. Heat treatment methods were applied to the glass specimens in order to make microstructural characterization by using field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and microhardness test for determining hardness values of the specimens and according to the obtained results, machinability test was applied by drilling. As a result of experimental studies, it was observed that CeO2 addition promotes cordierite forming.",
