High Calcium Semimatte 1 with #6 Tile kaolin From page 86 of Mastering Glazes book
Total:100.00 Auto Unity Formula
Notes #6 Tile kaolin is being substituted for EPK. This is resulting in crawling because this new kaolin is so much more plastic (thus it shrinks more on drying, creating cracks that become crawling during firing).

Si:Al Ratio:2.0:1 Alkali Ratio:0.1:0.9 Cost and Cost Units Can only be set in your own custom materials Notes #6 Tile is an air-floated highly plastic kaolin. It thus offers high green strength. No other kaolin we know of in the world even comes close to the plasticity of this material. A cone 10 porcelain can be made using a 50:25:25 recipe of this with silica and feldspar. With a small bentonite addition, bodies can be made that are plastic enough for wheel-throwing gigantic vessels. #6 tile is thus also good for suspending glazes. However, this material is relatively impermeable to water compared to other kaolins, it is thus the last choice for casting bodies. Inventory Movements Can only be set in your own custom materials |
