DEVELOPMENT OF OPACITY IN ZIRCONIA ENAMELS*

Burnham W. King, A. I. Andrews

Open publisher page 8 citations

Abstract

A bstract Opaque zirconia‐bearing enamels are divided into two general types, namely, those whose opacity is due (1) to the undissolved residue of the zirconia added in the raw batch and (2) to the crystallization of a zirconia compound during firing. These enamels are described and illustrated. The quantity, identity, and appearance of the materials causing opacity in representative samples of each group of enamels are given.
