Abstract

The effect of a new thinning agent, namely 40% sodium polyacrylate (SPA), on flow properties of majolica slip and the effect of hardness of water on changes in suspension moisture are considered. The use of 40% SPA makes it possible to reduce its content in slip by nearly half, compared to sodium silicate solution, to improve the slip flow properties, and to insignificantly decrease its moisture. An optimum content of 40% SPA in thinning a polymineral clay slip from the Gzhel'skoe deposit and a majolica mixture is determined.
