Expert Solution

Explanation

Diorite: Diorite is a grey to a dark-grey intermediate intrusive igneous rock composed principally of plagioclase feldspar, biotite, hornblende, and pyroxene.
Gneiss: Gneiss is also a common and widely spread type of rock formed by high-grade regional metamorphic processes from pre-existing formations, originally either igneous or sedimentary rocks.

JJ Techie calcined some ceramic powders at 1600℃ for 12 hrs, when removed from thefurnace, JJ was upset to find a big hard lump., After grinding up to the lump, someone told JJ to add a sintering aid and deflocculant to the ceramic before trying to press it into cylinders 10 inch by 0.25 inch in diameter. How could JJ do this well? JJ needs this size ceramic rod for experiments.
