Abstract
This study deals with investigating the effect of different amounts of zirconium silicate (ZrSiO4) on the physical and optical properties of ceramic glaze. ZrSiO4, as one the most popular glass formers in ceramic industry, has different influences on ceramic glaze especially in high percentages. The study was performed using different amounts of ZrSiO4 in a specific glaze, and the results show that by increasing ZrSiO4 content from 2% to 14% the color, whiteness, opacity, and thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) change significantly and all of these parameters are in their optimum point at 12% ZrSiO4. After 12% a significant change in whiteness and opacity occurs and vitreous-opaque phase becomes completely opaque. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, X-ray diffraction spectra (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and colorimetric tests are used to study the effect of different amounts of ZrSiO4 on the physical and optical properties of ceramic glaze.
