Synopsis
Excerpt from A Text-Book on Ceramic Calculations
The following pages have been written primarily for the use of the classes in Pottery and Porcelain Manu facture, held under the direction of the Staffordshire Education Committee. Since the recasting of the syllabuses of the City and Guilds of London Institute for this subject a few years ago, when the application of mathematical and chemical methods to the con sideration of the problems presented for solution in the course of the manufacture of pottery was first introduced, a collection of methods and examples such as are included in this work has been sorely needed. The Object of the author has not been to write a text-book on pottery manufacture. Descriptions of processes and discussions of the practical requirements of bodies, glazes, etc., are entirely absent, except in so far as they are necessary to an understanding of the arithmetical methods under description. Hence, for example, there is no general dissertation on the subject of fritting, nor on the principles underlying the compounding of fritts. On these and similar points information must be sought in special works dealing with those subjects. While it is hoped this small work may be wel comed by the students in our technical schools, in so far as they are concerned with pottery (and glass) manufacture, it may prove of some slight value to the general public engaged in these industries.
