| What is STONEWARE |
|
Stoneware is generally once-fired. Maximum firing temperatures can vary significantly, from 1100 °C to 1300 °C, depending on the flux content.
Typically temperatures will be between 1180°C to 1280°C.
To produce a better quality fired glaze finish, twice firing can be used, and this can be especially important for formulations composed of highly carbonaceous clays.
For these, biscuit firing is around 900 °C and gloss firing 1180–1280 °C.
Water absorption of stoneware products is less than 1%. |
