Physical and thermal Properties and bending strength of those fired bodies were investigated. The properties of SHIRASU-white cement-kaolin system or SHIRASU-white cement-wollastnite system fired at 1150 to 1200°C are as follows, apparent gravity 2.3~2.7, bulk gravity 1.8~2.0, water absorption 0~17(%), bending strength 80~500kg/cm^2, and thermal expansion coefficient is found in the following region "5.6~5.8×10^{-6}". The whiteness of the tile bodies SHIRASU is 90(%), near the pure white, so that colouring is good and can be expected the reduction of pigment consumption.}, pages = {7--16}, title = {シラスの工業的利用に関する研究 (第8報) : シラスを原料とする白色タイル素地}, volume = {11}, year = {1969} }
