Kinetics of Crystallization in TiO2-Opacified Porcelain Enamels

  • Conference paper
Kinetics of Reactions in Ionic Systems

Part of the book series: Materials Science Research ((MSR))

Abstract

Three reactions occur when a TiO2-opacified porcelain enamel frit is fired: crystallization of anatase, crystalllization of rutile, and inversion of anatase to rutile. The concepts of nucleation and growth theory have been applied to these three reactions to develop an overall kinetic law of transformation which predicts the concentrations of anatase and of rutile as function of the firing conditions. This theoretical development has been found to agree with the results of quantitative X-ray studies.
