Özet

In this study, the production of light building brick with adding of perlite into the clays was aimed. The materials which were used the study was carried out chemical, mineralogical and thermal analysis. In order get comparable results, the materials produced to test were added into the brick clay which is by weight: A: 0% perlite, B: 2,5% and C: 5% expanded perlite (EP). Test specimens were produced by vacuum extrusion with a press having cross-section of 75x40 mm, 100 mm length and 35% perforation volume.
