N2  - This study investigated the effect of particle size variation of (150 µm, 125 
µm & 100 µm) waste soda lime glass on the physical and mechanical properties of 
unglazed stoneware tile. The linear shrinkage result reveals that the smaller particles 
lead to higher shrinkage, in contrast to the tile body incorporation of larger particle 
sizes WSLG.The water absorption and apparent porosity was observed during the 
experiment and gives a high percentage due to low firing temperature. This failure did 
not reach the standard WA (Water Absorption) emphasizes the critical importance of 
firing temperature in achieving full vitrification. Optimal bulk density is observed 
with a 125 µm particle size (1.78/cmᶾ), while 100 µm and 150 µm sizes result in 
slightly lower bulk densities. In terms of mechanical properties, particle size of 125 
µm and 150 µm shows lower modulus of rupture, while 100 µm  exhibiting the 
highest value (3.35 Mpa). These findings collectively emphasize complex interplay of 
particle size, offers insight into the material science field implication for maximizing 
the use of waste materials in ceramic manufacturing
