Lee’s discipline is evident in work and life. Vadakan says people who’ve visited her studio are impressed by the boxes full of little clay tiles with different textures and color combinations, experiments that have become her reference library. On the shelves and tab...
Measurements of the color in the CIE L*a*b* system of the obtained glazes confirmed that the addition of zirconium oxide results in glaze with significantly higher whiteness (L* parameter increases) and a more monochromatic color (a* and b* parameters tend toward zero). The results of the ...
During the scratching of such a surface, even with light pressure, it is possible to note damage in the glaze as a result of the breakdown of the pores, which often occurs. In connection with this, difficulties arise in carrying out the test: in one case it is possible to obtain a ...
However, CaO, MgO and Al2O3 are also commonly present in the high-lead glazes, either in the glass initial components or due to the reaction of the melt with the ceramic. They are commonly present as calcite, dolomite and clay or feldspar among others. Their incorporation increases the ...
The implication of this research is that in the preparation of glass or glazes using these two hydroxy–carbonate minerals of copper the samples will decompose at low temperatures and any color formation in the glass is not due to azurite or malachite....
