1) Definition

Heatwork: it is a combination of effects including:
  • temperature
  • duration of firing
  • kiln atmosphere
  • volume and mass within the kiln
  • volatiles in the kiln

2) Measuring heatwork: pyrometric cones

We use pyrometric cones because, each cone within a temperature range has a separate behaviour, each of the cones has a has a separate chemical and physical composition.

Their composition is designed to permit the cone to bend over under the force of gravityat a particular temperature when heated at a specific rate.

There is an infinite combination of kiln heating rates and times.

So this bending does not begin at a specific temperature but rather at a combination of temperature and time. This means, cone cannot be considered a scientific measure of temperature, rather the cone shows off that a particular combination of time and temperature is reached

3) Pişirme teknikleri

3.1) to soak or not to soak (ısı sabitleme /bekletme)

source:Dave Finkelnberg
Some process in a firing are temperatur dependent, while others are time dependent.

A soak may be used at any point in a firing.

A soak reduce the difference between the surface and interna; temperature of ware in a kiln

3.2.) Temperature dependent process:


A soak at different temperature is critical and useful to the following process. TR: Belirli ısılar bu yukarıdaki prosesşer için kritik öneme sahip. Bu ısılara erişildiğinde ısıyı sabitlemek (soak) prosesin tam oluşmasına yararlı olacaktır:
  • organic burn off
  • driving off chemically bound water
  • mullite formation
  • silica melting
Once a glaze is melted, it will become less viscous (flow easily = katılaşacak) as temp increases.
The viscosity of a melten glaze is temperature dependent. A soak may be used to hold the viscosity of a melted glaze constant.

While time passes so that the glaze may flow or smooth out

This type of soak is often used to improve the final surface appearance of a glaze.

3.3) Atmosphere controlling kiln

source: Edward Orton Jr. / Ceramic foundation
Different degrees of oxidation (Tr: oksijen ile temas) and/or reduction may be used during the soakto further influence the appearance of the glaze surface.
3.4) Soak without over firing
  • a particular cone is down (not the last?)
  • temp is held constant for 15 minutes
  • so we increased the firing by one cone
  • the target cone is fully bent to a 90 angle - > end of soak
3.4) Slow cooling in electirc Kilns
Slowly colling is used for variety of purposes:
  • slow cooling large work to reduce dunting
  • cooling slowly and soaking (holding a temp) to form glaze cystals
  • Slower cooling reduces stress on ceramic wares
  • for glaze containing, these can result in some spectacular effects
    • feathering to small crystals
    • fully developed satin-matte surface
    • and many more
  • containing materials
    • zinc, rutile, calcium
    • magnesium, lithium, iron
  • combination of short soak at peak temp and down firing may result in eliminate pinholing in glaze
Many more computer controlled kilns come with built in pre-heat or cool-down programs

Tip: for using pre-program set up kilns test the program in a typical firing using self supporting Orton cones to calibrate the kiln (cone 6 is over firing)

4.1) Bana öğretilen

Bisküvi

980 C ile 1020 C arası fırınlanmalı yoksa malzeme uyuşmazlığı ortaya çıkar

950 C de fırınlanırsa sır malzeme uyuşmazlığı ile tutmaz veya bozuk çıkar

1050 C de fırınlanırsa, sır tutmaz (beyaz kilde bunun tersini pek çok defa yaptığını bir seramikçi söyledi, ama doğru mu bilmiyorum)

4.2) Deneyim-14-09-2019

4.2.1) Kırmızı kil - 

Aşağıdaki malzemede trapez şekiller daha ince idiler, daha fazla küçüldüler.

Hesaplamada trapez ve kare parçaların küçülmeleri ayrı değer ile yapılmalı

Islak kil boyutuları:

  • a - 69mm - trapez 
  • b - 68 mm - trapez 
  • c- 110 mm x 111 mm - kare
  • d - 107 mm x 110 mm - kare

Kuru kil boyutları:

  • a - 61 mm - küçülme : % 11,59
  • b - 60 - küçülme : % 11,76
  • c - 100 mm x 100 mm - küçülme : % 9,9
  • d - 98 mm x 99 mm - küçülme : % 8 - %10

İlk fırın boyutları - bisküvi

  • a - 60 mm - küçülme : % 
  • b - 59,53 mm - küçülme : % 
  • c - 99,67 mm - küçülme : % 
  • d - 96,45 mm - küçülme : % 

İkinci fırın - sırlama

  • a - 1 mm - küçülme : %
  • b - 1 mm - küçülme : %
  • c - 1 mm - küçülme : %
  • d - 1 mm - küçülme : %

4.2.2) Cam

Eski camların erimesi daha mükemmel

karo fayans seramikleri erimesini arttırmak için boraks kat (Kalaçlar'da var). Boraks daha düşük derecede camın erimesini sağlıyor.

  • Seramik üzeri şeffaf çini sır: 
    • çatlamaya sebep oluyor- efektli gibi. 
    • Sebebi farklı yüzey gerilmeleri
  • Çini fırını 925 C da çalıştırıldı
    • seramik şeffaf sır (seramik üzeri) iyi sonuç verdi
