A bstract A study of six brands of silicate of soda used in a typical ceramic casting slip discloses the effect of the Na 2 O to SiO 2 ratio on hydrometer readings, pH, viscosity, casting rate, water retention, drying shrinkage, dry strength, firing shrinkage, fired strength, and fired absorption. The effect of varying the amount of electrolyte both above and below that required for complete deflocculation is also reported.
