Temperature: 1025C+

Description:	Decomposition of Barium Carbonate
Type:	Eutectic

Notes

The mechanisms of decomposition for BaCO3, CaCO3 and SrCO3 are similar. Decomposition of this material can be a concern (relating to glaze defects, for example) if the powder is used in ceramic clay bodies and contains granular +200 mesh material. This temperature is from Thermal Decomposition of Ionic Solids by Andrew K. Galwey, Michael E. Brown
