The Story
Aneto is a beautifully translucent white porcelain body with outstanding plasticity. Perfect for wheel-throwing and modelling, and performs well in conjunction with Onyx Black Porcelain. The stable formula provides a reliable firing range between Cone 6 (~1220C) and Cone 8 (~1250C). Supplied in a 5kg pack.
Indicative texture 1 (Smooth 1-Coarse 10).
SIO2 Technical Data:
- Recommended firing 1230-1270C / Cone 7-9
- Biscuit: Cone 06 (1855ºF)
- Water content: 21%
- Plasticity (IP Atterberg): 11
- Carbonate content (CaCO3): 0%
- Drying shrinkage: 4.0%
- Firing shrinkage at Cone 7: 9.8%
- Porosity (water absorption) at Cone 7: 0.0%
- Dry bending strength: 3.1 N/mm2
- Fired bending strength at Cone 7: 45.2 N/mm2
- Thermal coefficient (a25-500ºC): 59.2x10-7ºC-1"
(*) Firing range recommended for the clay to develop its best performance, both in terms of technical and safety characteristics, under conventional firing conditions. The colour samples may show temperatures outside the recommended range to provide a broader view, but these are pieces fired under controlled conditions.
