Materials |
Frit
Frits are made by melting mixes of raw materials, quenching the melt in water, grinding the pebbles into a powder. Frits have chemistries raw materials cannot. |

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. |

Bonding Frits
These melt at very low temperatures (e.g. 500C). They are used to bond together materials that can withstand some heat (e.g. abrasives, ceramics, non-oxide ceramics, metals). And as a surface smoothing agent. The main product properties are melting temperature and thermal expansion. The powders are mixed with binders, applied and then heated up and down to create the bond. |
