<p>A binder system for use in the formation of ceramic or other powder-formed greenware comprising a binder, a solvent for the binder, a surfactant, and a component that is non-solvent with respect to the binder and solvent. The non-solvent component exhibits a lower viscosity than the solvent when containing the binder and comprises at least a portion of a branched chain paraffin exhibiting a 90 % recovered distillation temperature ranging between 205 °C to about 225 °C and a carbon chain length comprised predominantly of carbon chain distributions ranging from 12 to 14. Also disclosed is a process of forming and shaping plasticized powder mixtures and a process for forming ceramic articles utilizing the binder system.</p> |
