ABSTRACT

Zn2TiO4, which is a progenitor of zinc crystallization, plays a significant role in controlling the crystallization of willemite (Zn2SiO4) in forming glaze at low temperatures. Thus, Zn2TiO4 was used to formulate stable willemite and to gain structural control. When synthesized 15 wt% of Zn2TiO4 is added to engobe and then applied, it can manipulate its crystallization and location. Additionally, when colorant is added to Zn2TiO4 and then applied to engobe, the mixture’s colorant effect can be shown at crystallization. Certain characteristics of synthesized Zn2TiO4 enable various engobes to be applied to clay bodies. With a single glazing, the crystallization, location, and color of the crystals can be discretionarily regulated.
