Synopsis

Master the rational analysis of clays to predict how they behave in pottery and glazes.

This book explains how clays can be broken down into their mineral parts to reveal their true potential in ceramic bodies. It shows how knowledge of clay substance, felspar, quartz, and other oxides guides the formulation of clay blends and the synthesis of pottery bodies, with practical steps you can follow.

  • Learn the method of rational analysis and how the clay substance is separated from residue.
  • See how to combine ultimate and rational analyses to estimate the composition of clays.
  • Understand how these calculations guide body synthesis and clay substitution in practical ceramic work.
Ideal for readers of ceramics, pottery making, and materials science who want a clearer, more hands-on approach to clay chemistry.
