Notes

*This recipe was used, and possibly developed, by Luke Lindoe.

He used as much from 1-5% iron for light to dark green colors.

This did craze on some bodies, one simple change to improve it would be to use 325 mesh silica (increase of 200 mesh).

Notes

*To reduce the thermal expansion and eliminate some of the crazing we were getting we adjusted the original 77E05B recipe by introducing MgO (from Dolomite) at the expense of CaO.

This fires a fairly dark green and fits on H431, H443, H440, H442, H440G, etc. To make a lighter green, reduce the iron. For transparent, take the iron out.

This recipe could use a little more SiO2 to give it better gloss. 1947U can also be used as a celadon by adding iron oxide, that is another way to get high gloss.

Notes

*This is a variation on 77E06B STANDARD CELADON introducing soda at the expense of CaO to turn the iron blue.

The very low kaolin is problematic in achieving a good slurry. This could likely be reformulated by sourcing the KNaO from frit 3110, that has almost no Al2O3 and would enable increasing the kaolin.

The melting is much better. However, crazing can be an issue since the thermal expansion is higher (from the increased Na2O).

The 325 mesh silica was not used in the original but is recommended now, that might help reduce the chances of crazing. Another possible was to reduce expansion would increasing the silica a little.

Notes

*This recipe is used commonly and was likely popular because of its 25x4 simplicity. It has been included here for comparison.

This has a high CaO and lower SiO2 than any of the others. Its thermal expansion is high enough that crazing could occur. Use of M325 mesh silica would be beneficial to prevent that.

Notes

*The previous version had 10% frit but it had too much melt fluidity. If this is not fluid enough increase the frit slightly.

Either of the two materials could be used in the roast form. If this is not done the glaze will shrink too much during drying and crack (and then crawl during firing).

As with other celadons, iron could be added to darken the color.
