Formation d'un gel servant de liant

Formation of a gel by mixing a natural polysaccharide, not chemically transformed, with water. This gel acts as a binder during the production of suspensions or pastes using powdered mineral materials. Suspensions are used in the casting of ceramic tapes, for example, while pastes are shaped via microextrusion.
