GlazeChem allows numerous windows to be open at a time, so you can open 3 or
4 recipes and line up the analyses if you want. Also, it has a search for
similar glazes, by a variety of criteria. You click on the glaze you want
to find others similar to, click off the various criteria, and click go.
You will get a list of all the similar glazes in whatever databases you
specify. Very interesting, you may realize that several of your glazes with
different names are really the same glaze and you just never happened to
notice it.

You can also create line, triaxial, square and Currie blends, as well as mix
or average existing glazes together. You can also sort your glazes by many
things, such as oxides (by % or wt. or unity), for example if you want to
look at all the low alumina glazes, or high strontium glazes.
