Characterization of wollastonite-based glass ceramic from clamshell and sodium lime silica bottles

Wollastonite glass-ceramics have been fabricated in this work using clamshell (CS) and soda lime silicate (SLS) glass waste. The samples were prepared using a meltquenching technique based on the chemical formula [(CS)x(SLS)100-x] with x = 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50. The samples were sintered at 600,...
