HI!!
I am a BA student doing an honours year and I am currently hoping to get
a paper on "the transfer and production of photographic images on ceramic
surfaces" together....:P
Anyway... I have come across readings on using KOR (Kodak ortho resist emulsion
) and KPR (Kodak Photo resist emulsion) as a sensitising material to be used on
However, I believe these two products are no longer in production. However, sinc
find out what the big guys use for sensitizing PCB now... I found out that
some are using this substance called Probimer by CIBA-GEIGEY. Now, my question
glazed clay surafces?
Qn 2:
Can n-butyl acetate, which is the developer for KPR and KOR, be used for develop
If not, any suggestions for a suitable developer?
Really hope to hear something soon cos have not been quite successful with getti
Please enlighten me on anything about photos on ceramic surfaces too... Really i
Thanks in anticipation

Sorry that some of my previous msgs were chopped off at the edges and made not
much sense...
Anyway, I am a BA student doing an honours year and I am currently hoping
to write an honours academic exercise on the topic "The transfer and production
of photographic images on ceramic surafces."
I have come across readings on using KOR (Kodak ortho resist emulsion) and KPR
(Kodak Photo Resist Emulsion) as a sensitizing materials to be used on glazed
surfaces. However, I believe these two products are no longer in production.
However, since these materials were previously used for photo sensitizing
circuit boards back in the 70s and 80s, I thought I should find out what compa
-nies are using to sensitize PCB boards now... I found out that some are using
this material called Probimer, produced by Ciba Geigey. I tried asking the pple
at Ciba-Geigey for more info, but they do not know if it works for glaze clay
or not.
QN : Does anyone out there know if this probimer material can be used for
sensitizing glazed ceramic surfaces? Does anyone have any substitute material
or recommendations for sensitizing ceramic surfaces so that I can ultimately
expose either positives or negatives onto the ceramic surface and fire it?
I am also looking out for photo emulsion formulae for sensitizing ceramic
surfaces...anyone has any recipes to offer?
I am also currently working on a project which involves using computer generat
-ed images and transfering these onto ceramic surfaces. As a result, I am also
looking out for emulsion recipes for sensitizing silkscreens (nylon).
As I am really new in this area, I am really looking forward for pple to share
their experiences with me...
Really don't want my interest in his area of ceramics to die just because I
can't locate materials and sources......waiting in anticipation,
Dee Chia, Singapore :) :)

There is a product called Liquid Light that might fit your needs. This is a
liquid photo emulsion that can be painted on a surface (wood textured paper
whatever) and then exposed and processed using standard enlarging and
developing procedures. The only problem that I can think of is how durable
it will be on a glossy glaze. It may need to be applied on a matte
surface. Hope that helps.

David,
Thank you for your suggestion :)
Liquid light is good for processes which does not require firing in the ceramic
processes which will survive a kiln firing to between 850 degrees c to about
1300 degrees C ?

Paul Scott in His book "Ceramics and Print" gives a fairly detailed
discussion of this subject.
