Abstract
With a view to understanding the effect of heat on diaspore and pyroplzyllite, as depicted
by the assemblage of phases and microstructural changes, X-ray analysis and petrographic exami>
Jation were carried out on the materials in the raw and fired states. The samples were obtained
from the deposits in Jhansi area, Uttar Pradesh and were fired at temperatures of 1400°,
1500° and 1600°C.
