Lithium Carbonate - Powdered : One Pound Dry
Lithium Carbonate - Powdered : One Pound Dry
LITHIUM CARBONATE - Li2CO3 (m.p. 1330o F/720o C) is the most common form of the alkali Lithium. It is a major flux for higher temperature (Cone 5-13) alkaline glazes. It is less soluble than other alkaline compounds and produces more durable glazes. This lithium carbonate powder can also be used as a supplemental flux to reduce the maturing temperature of stoneware glazes by as much as 2 or 3 cones.
The powder and granular forms differ in particle size (the latter being coarser) and reactivity. The granular form can be used at higher temperatures where the reduced reactivity can be overcome.
