Strong white earthenware mixture 19-102
APPLICATION
Suitable in various hardnesses for working by hand and on the lathe and for cast presses and with iron moulds. The lower thermal expansion makes this earthenware more resistant to impacts, and is suitable for making objects for the kitchen oven and tableware, or in any case subject to a moderate temperature change.
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
Shrinkage during cooking (%): 4 – 6
Water absorption (%): 18 – 20
Alpha 10E-7K expansion coefficient: 74 – 78
COOKING
We recommend baking the biscuit at a temperature between 1000°C and 1040°C.
The second firing can be carried out at temperatures suitable for the glaze to be applied to this specific mixture, respecting in any case the expansion coefficient in order to avoid problems such as cracking or flaking.
This strong earthenware can be fired indifferently in continuous or intermittent, gas or electric kilns.
