magnesia in iron glazes

updated mon 26 nov 07

 

John Sankey on fri 23 nov 07


I understand that the Japanese Journal of Ceramic Science has
published some articles in Japanese on the relationship between
magnesia and iron in iron glazes, stating that magnesia is
essential for the red colour. They apparently were on-line
briefly, but aren't now. Is anyone aware of a current location of
them that Google could get at to translate, or did anyone keep a
copy?

I note that the X-ray analyses I was able to obtain showed
undetectable levels of MgO in the red surface crystals, despite
0.05 molar concentration in the bulk glaze.

John,

often times I have found out that the presence of
dolomite in
iron red glazes makes better reds. So, maybe the
Japanese are right

Edouard,

I just found the article ... published in Japanese by the Ceramic
Society of Japan, but written by Koreans ... LOL.
