Abstract: BUCLATN, ANGELI A; JECIEL, DAVE BENEDICT M.; and MARASIGAN, MARISSA F., Applied Research 111 (General Science CutTicu1um), Cavite state University, Indang, Cavite, April 2004, "UTILLIZATION OF OYSTER AND CLAM SHELLS m THE MANUFACTURE OF FLOWER VASE." Advisers: Engr. Renato B. Cubilla, Prof. Dulce L. Ramos The study entitled "Utilization of Clam and Oyster Shells in the Manufacture of Flower Vase" was conducted to utilize clam and oyster shells in the manufacture of flower vase. It also aimed to (a) determine which material (oyster or clam or oyster and clam shells) can be used in making flower vases; (b) determine the acceptability of the produced flower vases in terms of physical appearance and breaking strength; and (d) determine the cost of production of flower vases made from oyster and clam shells. The study was conducted at Cavite State University and MSD-ITDI, Department of Science and Technology, Bicutan, Taguig, M.M. from December 2003 to January 2004. The treatments used in the study were: Treatment 0 40% Red Clay, 10% Chinese Ball Clay, 30% Feldspar and 20% Silica; Treatment 1 40% Red Clay, 10% Chinese Ball Clay, Feldspar, 20% Silica, 10% Oyster shells and 10% Clam shells; Treatment 2 40% Red Clay, 10% Chinese Ball Clay, 20%Feldspar, 20% Silica, 5% Oyster shells, 5% Clam shells; Treatment 3 40% Red Clay, 10% Chinese Ball Clay, 10% Feldspar, 20% Silica and 20% Oyster shells; Treatment 4 40% Red Clay, 10% Chinese Ball Clay, 20%Feldspar, 20% Silica and 10% Oyster shells; Treatment 5 40% Red Clay, 10% Chinese Ball Clay, 10% Feldspar, 10% Silica and 20% Clam shells; Treatment 6 40% Red Clay, 10% Chinese Ball Clay, 20% Feldspar, 20% Silica and 10% Clam shells. Highly significant results were obtained in the parameters such as general acceptability, texture, color, mass, and density of the flower vase. However, nonsignificant results were obtained from volume, general acceptability, texture, and color of the flower vase. In terms of the production cost or economic feasibility, treatments 1, 3, and 5 got the best results. It was proven that pure clay is still the most advisable material for the manufacture of flower vase, but Treatment 4 or 40% Red Clay, 10% Chinese Ball Clay, 20% Feldspar, 20% Silica and 10% Oyster shells can also be utilized.
