Burnt Umber

Umber is a hydrated iron oxide that also contains significant manganese, calcia, alumina and silica. When umber is calcined (referred to as "burnt" because it is done to lower temperatures), the color intensifies. The material is used to color many...

Chromium Oxide Green

Chrome oxide is a very refractory ceramic colorant (even a 50% mix with a high borax frit will not even begin to melt it in a crucible). Chrome oxide is the only stable oxide of the metal chromium. It is a bright to...

Copper Carbonate

Conceptually, copper carbonate is CuCO3, however this form is not normally available in the market (copper carbonate basic is the article of commerce) so the powder should be viewed as a family of compounds. This material is considered volatile during...

FFF Silicon Carbide

SiC powder has some curious uses in ceramic glazes. It is employed to make crater and foam glazes. The silicon takes up available oxygen to make SiO2 and the carbon combines with oxygen to make the CO2 that creates...

Granular Ilmenite

Ilmenite can be used in small amounts (-1%) to produce dark brown specks in bodies and specialized glazes. It also is used in combination with rutile to develop characteristic rutile break glazes; it seeds crystals in titania glazes.
