Nepheline Syenite
Product Benefits
High fusibility that allows a reduction in the firing temperature of the ceramic body and reaches the required level of porosity. If the temperature decrease is significant this can also bring a further saving in natural gas consumption.
- White firing colour (for unglazed/super white body) that can reduce the use of whitening agents, alumina or zircon silicate.
- Lower the firing temperature
- Jointly responsible for translucency
- Vitrification
- Fired Shrinkage
