Examples of slurries include: Cement slurry, a mixture of cement, water, and assorted dry and liquid additives used in the petroleum and other industries [1] [2]; Soil/cement slurry, also called Controlled Low-Strength Material (CLSM), flowable fill, controlled density fill, flowable mortar, plastic soil-cement, K-Krete, and other names [3]
A blunger usually consists of a round or octagonal tank with a mixer. Clay is added to the water-filled blunger and then mixed into a slurry, which is also called slip. The electrical charge of the clay particles is neutralized by the addition of a deflocculant, which assists in keeping the particles in suspension. This slip can be then sieved ...
Scoria is a pyroclastic, highly vesicular, dark-colored volcanic rock formed by ejection from a volcano as a molten blob and cooled in the air to form discrete grains called clasts. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is typically dark in color (brown, black or purplish-red), and basaltic or andesitic in composition.
A parting and contraction of the glaze on the surface of ceramic ware during drying or firing, resulting in unglazed areas bordered by coalesced glaze. May be caused by uneven glazing, excessive glaze thickness or a greasy substrate. [8] Crazing A glaze fault characterised by the cracking of fired glazes and due to high tensile stresses.
African red slip ware: moulded Mithras slaying the bull, 400 ± 50 AD.. A slip is a clay slurry used to produce pottery and other ceramic wares. [1] Liquified clay, in which there is no fixed ratio of water and clay, is called slip or clay slurry which is used either for joining leather-hard (semi-hardened) clay body (pieces of pottery) together by slipcasting with mould, glazing or decorating ...
A fenced slurry pit. A slurry pit (also farm slurry pit, slurry tank, slurry lagoon, and slurry store) is a hole, a dam, or a circular concrete structure where farmers gather all animal waste and unusable organic matter, such as hay, and the run-off water from the washing of dairies, stables, and barns, in order to convert the slurry, over a lengthy period of time, into fertilizer that can be ...

Slush, also called slush ice, is a slurry mixture of small ice crystals (e.g. snow) and liquid water. [1] [2] In the natural environment, slush forms when ice or snow melts or during mixed precipitation. This often mixes with dirt and other pollutants on the surface, resulting in a gray or muddy brown color.
