John and all,
L' "eutexie" n'est pas un eutectique au sens de
la thermo-dynamique, mais cela désigne en
céramique une température où tout
est fondu...(Smart)
"Eutexie" is not an eutectic with a thermodynamic
meaning but it indicates in ceramics a temperature
where everything is melted...

Dear Edouard ,
Thank you for providing that information.
To save future confusion or an assumption that the information given by =
Smart relates to the use of the term "Eutectic" in the sense given in =
"Phase Diagrams for Ceramists" perhaps he could revise his presentation =
by substituting the term "Molten".
Could Smart explain why Silica is employed in glaze recipes that use =
Potash felspar as a fluxing agent if, as his graph shows, this elevates =
the melting temperature by a significant margin. I would suggest B. =
Leach's "Cone 8 Limestone Glaze" as a well known example where the ratio =
of spar to silica is 40 to 30. The increase in melting point seems to be =
100 degrees Celsius taking the melting point well above what we would =
anticipate if the spar fuses at 1390 deg C..
Please pass on my good tidings to Smart.
Best regards,
Ivor Lewis.

Hello Ivor,
I am the one who translated the term
"fondu" in French by "melted" in English,
he also used the term "fusionné".
I have just checked in "Babel Fish Traduction":
"melted = fondu"
and "molten = fondu"
"fusionné = amalgamated"
So, "go figger".
Sorry, I am not a chemist.
I will forward your comments to Smart,
