CONE 6 OXIDATION

GROUP 2

 

RECIPES

 

Top row, far left tile is #5803 color B. Clay body is B-Mix C6.

 21 Gerstley Borate
 16 Nepheline Syenite
 11 Kaolin
 20 Whiting
 32 Silica

B. color add: 2% cobalt oxide

Top row second tile from left is #6471 on BMix. The glaze is badly crazed on this body, where it applied thicker. I'll have to check it on another body and  probably revamp it a bit. It's a pretty green, not as bright as the picture shows.    I've revamped it, to lower the expansion. Here's the revamped recipe: #6471 V2

29.30 Custer Feldspar

16.00 Gerstley Borate

 7.00 Whiting

 5.00 Dolomite

13.70 EPK

Add: Copper Carbonate 3% for a pretty light green. Or try 4% Copper oxide for a darker green.  

Top row, third  tile from left is Peacock blue #6144. This is on an iron bearing stoneware (look best on this type of body).  You can find this recipe in the Clayart archives. The tile is a better light, quiet blue than it appears here. This is a lovely, soft blue glaze with some flecking .  The glaze to the right of this is Peacock blue as well, but on a white body.

Second row from top, far left tile is  June Perry Calcium Eutectic type matt #7473V3 ColorZZZ (Base recipe is on C6 glaze group #4 page). This is a light olive, a bit like some northern celadons.

Color ZZZ Add: 1.5% Red Iron oxide, 1.5% Copper Carbonate, 2% Tin oxide.

Second row from top, second tile from left is  a beautiful, rich, buttery, raspberry chrome tin glaze # 6170 on BMix body.

35 Nepheline Syenite

15 Whiting

 9 Ferro Frit 3134

10 Kentucky OM#4 Ball Clay

19 Silica

 2 Bentonite

10 Tin Oxide

Total 100

ADD: Chrome oxide  0.15%

Second row from top, third tile from left is #6288 on Bmix clay. It's darker and not as bright as the one to its left.

**This glaze is at it's loveliest on a white body. I tested it on an iron bearing stoneware and the color was duller and a hair more matt. If you want the brighter version and you are using a dark body, just apply a white engobe or porcelain slip.

25.00 Nepheline Syenite

10.5 Gerstley Borate

18.5 Whiting

 9.5 Grolleg Kaolin

36.5 Silica 

ADD: Tin oxide 7%, Chrome oxide 0.32%

**This recipe seems to be within cone 10 limits. based on my glaze software. It has an expansion of 7.24 and Silica/alumina ration of 10.33, which would make it a gloss at cone 10. Because it is obviously under matured for cone 6 I would advise to use it only one non functional work

Second row far right is a Clayart Purple  glaze #6472

37 Custer Feldspar

12 Gerstley Borate

 6 Dolomite

14 Talc

  3 Zinc Oxide

 5 EPK

23 Silica

Total  100

ADD: Cobalt Carbonate 3, Bentonite 2

Third row from the top, far left tile is a beautiful deep green (picture doesn't show the true color).  It's glaze #6610V3 Color D which is 4% rutile, 0.9% cobalt carbonate, 2% copper oxide.

Third row from the top, 2nd tile from left,  is a Barium copper blue called "Brilliant Blue", on Helios P5 porcelain. This recipe is from Ian Currie's book- "Stoneware Glazes- A Systematic Approach".  For my purposes I've numbered it:     #7329 Brilliant Blue

 8.9 Soda Ash

8.0 Ferro Frit 3134

37.5 Nepheline Syenite

 2.4 Lithium Carbonate

17.7 Strontium carbonate

20.8 EPK

 4.7 Flint

A: add 3% Copper Carbonate  0.2% Cobalt Carbonate

This is a  beautiful glaze both in color and surface. Because of the soluble material it contains.  make sure you add the right amount of water, because if you add too much and pour off the excess, you'll be losing  some of the fluxes.

 

Third row from top, third tile from left is June Perry's Calcium Eutectic type matt #7473V3  Z color (see C6 glaze group 4 page for base recipe) This is a beautiful, buttery, light, warm yellow.

 

 

Z Color Add: 1% Rutile, 1% Red Iron Oxide, 3% Tin oxide.

 

 

Third row from top, far right tile is June Perry's Calcium Eutectic type matt #7473V3 Color Q (base recipe is on C6 glaze group #4 page) Buttery matt, soft pale blue.

 

Q Color Add: 1 Copper Carbonate, 0.18 Cobalt Carbonate, 0.25 Chrome oxide, & Zircopax

 

 

Bottom row, far left tile is June Perry #7096 Color B (see C6 Glaze group 1 page for base recipe)

B Color Add: 7.5% Rutile, 5% tin oxide


Bottom row, 2nd tile from left is #8116A a recipe from my friend Veena Raghavan  The tile is Highwater's 5-6 porcelain. This is a very pretty, soft, rutile blue. 

20 Ferro Frit 3134

20 Dolomite

20 Spodumene

20 Om#4 Ball Clay

20 Silica

A: add copper carb 2%, cobalt carb 0.5%, Tin oxide 5%

 

Bottom row, third tile from left is actually two color versions of the same glaze. It was first dipped in #7277 Indian C 6-8 Color A, and then the top half was dipped in cobalt blue version. I will have to check my work sheet and post the Color additions later. I believe it's about 1% Cobalt oxide; but I'm not sure.  The test is on a porcelain body.

Dolomite                  3

Bottom row, far right tile is  June Perry's #6711V4 Color F on a porcelain clay body.  This was a revision for a friend of a high magnesia C10 glaze . This has higher magnesia than is recommended for a C6 glaze but everything else is within limits. I'm still working on this glaze and want to test it on other bodies.
