Granular Rutile

Formula: TiO₂

In ceramics this material is available in a variety of sizes. It can be used at a speckling agent in glazes, however it settles quickly because it has a high specific gravity. It can also be used as a speckling agent in bodies, try around 0.2% to start.

Mechanisms

• Glaze Variegation - Speckle

  Granular rutile is popular as a specking agent. Start with 0.2%. This material is heavy and will settle in glaze with a thin slurry.
