Investigation on mechanical properties of cockle shell composite structure under temperature and aging influence

Cockle shell is one of the marine organisms that can easily found in Malaysia. In this study, a ceramic material was fabricated from cockle shell and used sucrose as a binder. The cockle shell was crushed and milled into small size at around 160 μm -200 μm. The cockle shell powder then was mixed and...

In this study, a ceramic material was fabricated from cockle shell and used sucrose as a binder. The cockle shell was crushed and milled into small size at around 160 μm -200 μm.

The compression test result shows that the samples with 78wt% of cockle shell at 150°C has the highest strength compare to 68wt%, 88wt% of cockle shells at different temperatures 50°C and 100°C. The drying process was implemented in two methods which heated the samples for an hour at 150°C and another method was the sample placed for drying under room temperature for 24 hours before the flexural test.
