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
