Cone 6 white matte and glossy that do not crawl
Here is how we took the Perkins Studio Clear glaze recipe and adjusted it to prevent gelling of the slurry, reduce thermal expansion, get a better glass.
Project Name The Development of G2926B Cone 6 Clear Project Codenumber UnAssigned Notes Many transparent cone 6 glaze recipes are available online. But they are not created equal. After working with many you will note several things: |
Perkins Clear
Total:100.00 Auto Unity Formula
Notes *This was among many clear glaze recipes we found on the internet. It stood out because it was crystal clear.

Perkins Clear with Frit 3134
Total:100.10 Auto Unity Formula
Notes *This recipe makes the most obvious adjustment to Perkins Clear: Sourcing boron from a frit instead of the troublesome Gerstley Borate (it is a bubble source, gels glaze slurries, is inconsistent). Pictures G2916F Commercial Dinnerware Clear vs. G2926A (Cone 6) G2916F is sold by Plainsman Clays as Stoneware Clear. Its melting pattern is more bubble-free because its LOI is even lower (the talc in the 2926A is likely contributing these bubbles). However when used on ware these bubbles do clear. G2926 Perkins Clear vs. Fritted version G2926A Notice that the frit melts the glaze more even though the amount of boron it contributes is the same. This is good because it enables us to add more SiO2 and Al2O3 (both beneficial). Testdata LDW - LOI/Density/Water Content

G2926B Reduced COE (MgO)
Total:100.00 Auto Unity Formula
Notes *This is an adjustment to G2926B to reduce its thermal expansion. However, before trying this, we recommend ball milling the G2926B or using 325 mesh silica in that recipe. Only if those do not work, then try this (use 325 silica in this one also, the fine particles assure all of it melts). Pictures G2926S after 300F:IceWater test on P300 No crazing after the test. P300 after 300F:IceWater test S is not crazing after two days. B crazing in the cold water.
