Effect of SiO2/Al2O3 ratio on the whiteness of ceramic tile engobes with low zircon content

Abstract Micronized zircon (ZrSiO4) is used as an opacifier in the production of engobes, opaque glazes, and floor tile bodies. Elevated price levels incentivize researchers to develop alternative engobe formulations with reduced zircon ratios. In this study, new engobes with low zircon content were...
