Hello all,
I have a bro-in-law in the cement/concrete industry. I asked him for
some old fly ash samples he might have because I knew that fly ash has
Si and Al. I have already done my archive diving and would now like to
know if anyone has had the opportunity to use such fly ash in a glaze
recipe and what the outcome was. I realize that the m.p. for fly ash
will be to high for my cone 6, but I'm hoping to find out if there are
any other things to consider when testing with this ingredient. Will
carbon in the fly ash be a problem for use in a glaze?
Can it also be used in a clay body?
Thanks for the help

Where did they find enough flies to burn to get any usable amount of ash? I've often thought of using cicada husks or dead beatles as glaze material, but haven't tried it, yet.
facetiously yours,

No, I think that would be bone ash!
Yoko Ono might still have the necessary raw
material for this. And, she HAS done some
conceptual art involving pottery... ;)

I know this sounds hopelessly vague... but when I use to read ceramic
industry journals, I would run across several papers exploring fly ash as
a glaze component. I can't remember the journal name- but it can probably
be found on acers.org.
Some searches in the Science Index in your nearby library or even better-
if you have a nearby university or college- hit up their science library
and ask the librarians.
I'm assuming your searched online already?
Fly ash is a major by-product of industry and hence its research has been
funded well.
Good luck and have fun!
