The aim of this work was to analyse the fracture behaviour of commercial dense cordierite bodies sintered in an electrical furnace in static air at 1250ºC, 1275ºC and 1300ºC for 30 min using different cycling schedules in order to obtain tougher materials at minimum energy costs. Using a stereomicroscope and a scanning electron microscope, fracture surfaces of as-sintered bars tested under four-point bending at...
