Overview
Striker
This style may not reveal (strike to) its target color until fired.
Reactive Potential
Contains: Sulfur (S) / Selenium (Se)
May React With: Copper (Cu), Lead (Pb), and Silver (Ag)
Forms of Glass
Sheet Glass (-0030, -0050), Frit (-0001, -0002, -0003, -0008), Rod (-0576), Stringer (-0507, -0107, -0272), and Ribbon (-0401)
Detailed Information
About 000126 Sheet Glass
Cold Characteristics
Color variations common from minty-pastel to vibrant yellow-green.
Working Notes
Lighter coloration matures and becomes consistent to target upon firing.
A sulfur glass. May react with lead and copper glasses to create dark interface (lead sulfide, copper sulfide).
This style is not suitable for kilncasting because it can become incompatible when held at high temperatures for an extended period. It may also become incompatible in instances where processes exceed the parameters of the test for compatibility. Testing recommended when heatwork exceeds these parameters.
About 000126 Frit
Working Notes
Coarse Frit
Medium Frit
Fine Frit
Powder
This style is not suitable for kilncasting because it can become incompatible when held at high temperatures for an extended period. It may also become incompatible in instances where processes exceed the parameters of the test for compatibility. Testing recommended when heatwork exceeds these parameters.
About 000126 Rod
Cold Characteristics
Slight variations from one production run to another.
Working Notes
Torch: Lighter color and greater opacity than in sheet glass form. Keep it a bright chartreuse by working with a neutral to oxidizing flame atmosphere. Can turn gray in reduction.
Kiln: Lighter color and greater opacity than in sheet glass form.
