Frit
A frit is the powdered form a man-made glass. Frits are premelted, then ground to a glass. They have tightly controlled chemistries, they are available for glazes of all types. |
Glaze Color | Frits with very high alkali and little or no alumina can develop these colors well. However they have very high thermal expansion so it is difficult to get them to fit most bodies. |
