Abstract
In this paper, the permeability and tortuosity of mesoporous ceramics of kaolin and diatomite are reported. The cylindrical samples with weight percentages of 60% diatomite, 30% kaolin and 10% CaCO3 were made by casting, with an average diameter of 5 cm and a thickness of 0.6 cm. The drying process was carried out through the forced circulation stove at 100 °C for 24 hours and the sintering at temperatures of 800 °C, 850 °C, 900 °C, 950 °C, 1000 °C and 1100 °C, using an electric muffle with a ramp of 5 °C/min. For the determination of water permeability, a variable load permeameter was used, while the tortuosity was found from the product of the form factor and its porosity. The results of tortuosity were found in the range of 3.32 to 7.16, whereas permeability varied between 3.09x10-6 and 22.2x10-6 cm/s, evidencing an inverse behavior between these parameters when increasing to temperature.
