Abstract
A study was undertaken of the crystallisation phenomena occurring duri ng the firing of a zirconium frit of the kind used industrially to obt ain glossy opaque glazes (in fast single firing processes). The nature and formation sequence of the devitrifying crystalline phases were de termined, and experiments undertaken on the mechanism of crystal nucle ation.
