This study focuses on the effect of firing temperature on the physical properties of Same clay and Pugu kaolin for potential application in ceramic tiles. XRay diffractometer (XRD) is used to analyze the phases formed after firing. XRD result shows that quartz, sillimanite and cristobalite appears at temperature beyond 1200oC while mullite phase develops in Pugu kaolin.
