*CoE: coefficient of expansion information supplied is based on the crazing behaviour of 10 quality control glazes fired to cone 06, cone 6 or cone 10 having coe's ranging from 6.29 x 10^-6/°C to 8.87 x 10^-6/°C as determined by Insight glaze calculation software. Fully fused glazes having a lower coe (as determined by Insight) than the value indicated are not expected to craze. While this information is useful in assessing glaze suitability, it is not definitive; actual testing under user firing conditions is strongly advised.
Storage: Protect ceramic clay bodies from direct sunlight, avoiding excessive temperature changes and protect from frost.
Use: Technical details are available with information on the characteristics of each product and its use. It is recommended to test clay body prior to large scale use in order to verify suitability in both the ceramic process (shaping, drying, firing and decoration) and the final application that is expected to be obtained.
