How are dolomite applied on ceramics?

Answer:

The addition of dolomite and limestone powder mixed into dolomitic limestone mixture in the glaze, can produce anorthite and diopside - wollastonite clinker, suitable for fast firing porcelain, in the manufacture of fine brick and brick wall, the cost is lower than the clinker synthesis of calcium and magnesium compounds.
It can promote the dissolution of quartz and the formation of mullite, increase the dosage of quartz and reduce the dosage of feldspar, thus increasing the transparency of the embryo.
Dongfeng Hebei Lingshou County Mineral staff said, in the ceramic production process, raw material and glaze with dolomite powder, calcium oxide and Magnesium Oxide introduced component replacement of talc and calcite, Magnesium Oxide's role is to change the mixing system components, thereby reducing the sintering temperature of the embryo;
