Kneading with Glass Fibers (small kneader)

Kneading of the Arg. body was started in the morning with glass fibers using the small kneader and it had to be kneaded for five hours and test samples had to be taken out after 30min and each and every hour. These samples will be sieved and fibers will be separated to observe the length of the kneaded glass fibers. Cleaning of this small kneader takes about 45 min to one hour.
The kneading has to be done using the big kneader so that it was cleaned off the oil and fixed for the next day use.
Al₂O₃ fibers still break up in the sintering process even this time another program was used. Now I am going to check whether the heating rate at the beginning has something to do with the fiber explosion.
