What is INSIGHTThe way glazes fire is more closely related to their chemistry than any other factor. INSIGHT handles the calculation mechanics of converting recipes to formulas and back (a recipe shows a glazes materials, a formula shows its oxides, its chemistry). The main INSIGHT window shows two side-by-side recipes and their formulas. This enables you to make chemistry changes to one while seeing the original beside it. INSIGHT provides information that teaches you to think in terms of the function of each oxide in a fired glaze and to relate changes you make to a glazes chemistry to what happens in the fired glaze. Soon it becomes easy to deal with almost any situation by adjusting the glaze recipe. |
