ZIRCOSIL 5 MICRON OPACIFIER
A very fine version of zirconium silicate, a 6-9% addition produces semi-opaque glazes. Finely milled zircon provides high whiteness and opacity in ceramic glazes, ceramic pigments, porcelain bodies, sanitary-ware and tableware, as well as being used in refractories and friction products. Zircon stiffens the glaze melt (increases surface tension) and this often needs to be taken into account as glazes lacking melt fluidity can experience problems with crawling, blistering and pin holing.
