Master the rational analysis of clays to predict how they behave in pottery and glazes.
This book explains how clays can be broken down into their mineral parts to reveal their true potential in ceramic bodies. It shows how knowledge of clay substance, felspar, quartz, and other oxides guides the formulation of clay blends and the synthesis of pottery bodies, with practical steps you can follow.
- Learn the method of rational analysis and how the clay substance is separated from residue.
- See how to combine ultimate and rational analyses to estimate the composition of clays.
- Understand how these calculations guide body synthesis and clay substitution in practical ceramic work.
Ideal for readers of ceramics, pottery making, and materials science who want a clearer, more hands-on approach to clay chemistry.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a detailed collection of methods and examples for carrying out various ceramic calculations. Particularly, it focuses on how to determine and represent the composition of ceramic substances both as a percentage and a chemical formula. Calculations to determine the dry weight, weight per pint, and slop weight of slips are also covered. Furthermore, the author provides a thorough examination of methods for building up mixtures of varying complexity from substances of known chemical composition. These insights are of pivotal importance for both students and practitioners in ceramic science, offering a valuable resource for understanding and working with ceramic mixtures.
