The aim of the present work was to obtain low-temperature, unfritted glaze coatings for facade finishing materials. The synthesis of the glazes was based on the use of waste from the production of colored TV sets in the form of mixtures of cone glass and screens, window and container glass; white burning, aluminum-oxide containing wastes formed during the etching of aluminum alloys, and tripoli from the Nizhnedevitsk locations. The chemical compositions of the raw components are shown. The presence of large reserves of natural raw materials and industrial waste products, the simplicity of preparation, the excellent physical and mechanical and chemical properties, and also the economic effectiveness prove that the authors can recommend the new glazes for industrial use. On the basis of glass cullet, alumina-containing waste, and tripoli, it is possible to obtain low-temperature brilliant glazes of beige color for ceramic articles without incorporating, additionally, pigments and opacifiers.
