Glossary Opacifier
Glaze opacity refers to the degree to which it is opaque. Opacifiers are powders added to transparent ceramic glazes to make them opaque.
Materials Calcium Zircon Silicate
Materials Magnesium Zirconium Silicate
Materials Opax
Materials Sodium Silcofluoride
Materials Tin Oxide
Its principle use in ceramics is as an opacifier in glazes. It is very expensive.
Materials Titanium Dioxide
A super white powder used in ceramic glazes to variegate, opacify and moderate color.
Materials Ultrox
Materials Zinc Zircon Silicate
Materials Zirconium Dioxide
Materials Zircon
Materials Zirconium Spinel
Materials Zircopax
Zirconium silicate, its principle use in ceramics is as an opacifier in glazes. It is an expensive material, but less so than tin oxide.
Materials Zircopax Plus
Materials Bone Ash
Materials Fluorspar
Materials Beryllium Oxide
Materials Ceramic Rutile
Rutile mineral ground to a very fine particle size (e.g. 325 mesh) contributes titanium and iron that colors and variegates ceramic glazes.
