Description

Ceramic chemistry is concerned chiefly with the reactions of silicates. It is complicated by the difference in conduct between body and glaze. In the latter, if properly matured, the chemical reaction between the constituents has proceeded to a finish, and the melt consists of a homogeneous mixture or solid solution of silicates and, it majj be, borates and phosphates, and any eutectics that may be formed. With the body, on the other hand, it is different. The firing is only conducted to incipient vitrification, if as high as that. The chemical reactions are not allowed to proceed to a finish. The chemistry of pottery is therefore, as far as the body is concerned, one of incomplete reactions. Consequently, the nature and condition of the raw materials are of im- are irrelevant portance in the body, while in the glaze they as long as the same ultimate composition is preserved.
