A Text-Book on Ceramic Calculations (Classic Reprint): With Examples: With Examples (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Unlock the science behind clay to predict how bodies perform in pottery and glazes.
In this essential guide, you’ll learn how to break down clays into their mineral components and how those parts affect the way clay behaves in firing. The book explains a rational method for identifying clay substance, felspar, and quartz, and shows how to use these results alongside ultimate analyses to predict performance in real-world recipes. It also covers practical limits and how to apply the method to mix design and body synthesis.
- How rational analysis dissects clay into clay substance, felspar, and quartz for clearer insight into firing behavior.
- How to combine rational analysis with ultimate analysis to determine composition and influence on properties.
- Guidance on applying the data to synthesize bodies and to substitute clays with greater confidence.
- Illustrative examples and formulas for calculating components and understanding practical outcomes.
