364,529. Enamels; glazes. KREIDL, I.; 5, Sebastian Kohlgasse, Vienna. June 25, 1930, No. 19391. Convention date, Aug. 8, 1929. [Class 56.] In the production of white opaque enamels and glazes by incorporating in the enamel slip a substance which develops gas bubbles on firing, the number, size, and distribution of the gas bubbles evolved, and thus the resulting opacity, are controlled by varying the grain size and/or absorbent capacity of the clay, or other material used for adsorbing the gas-evolving agent, by means of peptization, coagulation, or colloid grinding. Diminishing the grain size by peptization or colloid grinding reduces the size of the gas bubbles, while increase of grain size by coagulation increases the size of the gas bubbles. The modification of grain size &c. may be effected on the adsorbent or on the adsorption complex prior to adding these to the enamel slip. Suitable adsorbents are clay, kaolin, glass frit, etc.; as peptizating-agents for the clay mineral or metallic acids or salts, such as hydrochloric acid, chlorides, tungstic acid, or tungstates, are suitable ; alkaline-earth borates or carbonates are suitable coagulants.. The gas-evolving agents. may be organic substances, such as dyestuffs, fatty acids or their salts, aromatic carboxylic acids or .boric salts, or naphthols, or inorganic substances, such as nitrates. In an example, Methylene Blue is employed as gas-evolving agent, adsorbed in clay, with sodium chloride as peptizating-agent. Specifications 297,724, 297,725, and 297,737, [all in Class 56, Glass], are referred to. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) relates generally to the use of substances producing opacity by gas evolution, and to modification of the effect by varying the nature or amount of the gas-evolving agent, or the nature or amount or surface of the adsorbent therefor; additional examples are given of the use of (1) clay, alpha-naphthol, and sodium perchlorate; (2) clay Thiazole Yellow, borax, and potassium perchlorate. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted. |
