This material is still manufactured today since some of its important properties are due to the unique cellular structure of bones that is preserved through calcination. Real bone ash has excellent...

This material is toxic in its raw state and care needs to be taken with storing and handling. Matte glazes made with high proportions should not be considered food safe.

Magnesium carbonate otherwise known as light magnesium carbonate. A white very light-weight powder, practically insoluble in water.When added to glazes magnesium carbonate often mattifies them, simply because it is refractory (it is useful at lower temperatures where making a good matte can be quite...

Manganese Di-oxide is also known as Pyrolusite. Above 1080C, half of the oxygen disassociates to produce MnO, a flux that immediately reacts with silica to produce violet colours in the absence of alumina, browns in its presence. Thus if it is being used in glazes fired below 1080C it should be cons...

China Clay Ultrafine, also known as Kaolin, is a white, soft, plastic clay mainly composed of fine-grained plate-like particles.

Soda Feldspar is generally a clean white mineral that sources sodium, alumina and silica along with some potassium and calcium. No actual materials have the ideal formula shown here, they all have some K2O and small amounts of other contaminants. Manufacturers refer to their materials as 'soda' if N...

a very slightly soluble source of SrO used in glazes.Strontium carbonate is often recommended as a substitute for barium to produce matte glazes. Use about 75% as much and test first to make sure colour response is the same. However, strontium is not a substitute for barium as a precipitator of solu...

Iron Oxide Yellow is also known as hydrated iron oxide.This is one of the many colours of iron oxide. More accurately, it is an iron hydroxide. Yellow ochre clay contains yellow iron oxide.
