Microstructural characterization and tribological behavior of Laser Furnace processed ceramic tiles 2018 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted This paper presents, for the first time, the processing of commercial ceramic tiles by means of Laser Furnace (LF) technology and its influence on their microstructure and tribology. Commercial porcelain and white clay, partially fired ceramic tiles, were processed by this method in order to study the effect of the laser treatment and its potential to produce ceramic items on a large scale, under extreme surface temperature conditions. The microstructure and depth of the laser irradiated ceramic samples were studied by FESEM. EDX analyses were employed to study composition before and after the laser treatment. Surface roughness was determined using Confocal Microscopy, while hardness and tribological behavior were studied using Vickers indentations and a ball-on-flat apparatus, respectively. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/T12 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/T87 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EUR/LIFE/CERAMGLASS-LIFE11 ENV/ES-560 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc-nd http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 3.45 2018 MATERIALS SCIENCE, CERAMICS 2 / 28 = 0.071 2018 Q1 T1 0.888 2018 Ceramics and Composites 2018 Q1 Electronic, Optical and Magnetic Materials 2018 Q1 Surfaces, Coatings and Films 2018 Q1 Process Chemistry and Technology 2018 Q1 Materials Chemistry 2018 Q1 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion Gutiérrez-Mora, F.
