Application of the Technology of Hot Enamel in Design

Abstract

Enameling is a very ancient, well-known method of combining glass and metal, and at the same time it is a very young, rapidly developing and widely demanded type of art. This happened because with the development of science and, as a result, the improvement of enameling technology, the process became quite accessible and universal. The works made in the “durable” technology are becoming more wide-spread in the design of architecture, interior decoration and decorative applied art. The article gives the classification of enamels and the possibility of using various techniques in product design. The authors note role of enamels by Russian manufacturers in obtaining a spectrum of color combinations. The distinctive features of enameling techniques are revealed. Some types of defects while enameling, their causes and main ways of its elimination are discovered in the article.
