Abstract

Zinc crystal glaze has its limits in practical use of commercial glaze due to the controlling crystal. In order to overcome this limit, and to heighten the practical usage, this study is aimed to develop artificially controlling willemite (Zn₂SiO₄) zinc crystalline glaze. For this purpose, it has experimented with the effect of anatase form and rutile form using TiO₂ known as nucleating agent. In zinc glaze, adding TiO₂ resulted with anatase form becoming more effective at nucleating formation and growth of willemite than the rutile form. Furthermore, it turned out that using the TiO₂ - anatase form, with synthetic seeds (zinc silicate), the numbers and positions of crystals can be controlled artificially.
