I've tried the same trick as Nils, but I was making thermocouple probes
from some ^12 porcelain, using those $3 thermocouples from Omega
Engineering. I coated one tip with ITC213 and left the other uncoated,
positioned within 3mm of the coated probe. Throughout a ^10 firing cycle,
they never differed more than 3 degrees C. The ITC213 coating was
achieved by dipping the tip in the solution and letting it dry. This
created a very thin coating that seems to halt all oxidation at the
tip.
I'll post back after 100 or so firings and let you know how it holds up,
but so far, so good.

Subject: Re: ITC on Thermocouple?
I've been watching this thread -- can't help but ask....
Why would ITC be good on a thermocouple? If it's the greatest-ever
insulator (reflector), etc. -- wouldn't it interfere with the
thermocouple's
accuracy?
