In this example, we derive the recipe of materials needed to source the oxide formula of a cone 6 zinc transparent glaze (supplying B2O3 from a frit; KNaO from feldspar, CaO from calcium carbonate, ZnO from zinc oxide, Al2O3 from koalin and SiO2 from silica.

Step-by-step to do a formula-to-batch in Insight-Live.com
Insight-live does not automate formula-to-batch calculations, but it does assist in doing them. And it provides the tools to create an audit trail of test results, pictures and notes and a path to document subsequent adjustments. Along the way, you gain material knowledge and intuition. In this example, we derive the recipe of materials needed to source the oxide formula of a zinc clear cone 6 glaze (sourcing the oxides needed using a Ferro frit and other common raw materials). We'll create the target in a panel, start the batch in a panel beside it, supply the B2O3 from a frit and then the fluxes from feldspar, zinc and whiting. Then finish by rounding out the Al2O3 and SiO2 from kaolin and silica. The picture below shows the panels, the original target formula on the left and the final derived recipe on the right. The derived transparent glaze is on the inside of the mug and the outside is G3875, another zinc clear with iron and chrome added to produce the orange.
