Apparently invisible. Chemistry in ceramics.
Aware of how complex the problems related to the world of chemistry applied to ceramic production processes can be, we want to share our knowledge with those who want to orient themselves or train for passion or profession.Through a simple and direct language, the podcast aims to be an educational space with a focus on products, applications and processes.The journey unfolds along the ceramic production lines.At each stage a topic.At each topic a critical issue.At each critical issue, when possible, a solution.
Among the several issues that may arise along the glazing line, the excessive foaming within glaze suspensions is one of the most frequent and problematic.
The phenomenon is already visible on the surface of the glaze inside the stirring systems but consequences can persist even after the end of...

Speaking of ceramic glaze applications and technical defects, one of the strangest and most interesting is the "TV effect".
It consists of a preferential migration of the glaze towards the perimeters of the tile that produces in those areas a thickening of the glaze.
The unaesthetic result is a...
