Pierre Fauchard
is an aluminosilicate mineral derived from the decomposition of feldspar from igneous rock.
Kaolin
The term kaolin derives from the name of the deposit in ___ where the mineral was first mined - Kao-ling.
China
____ is an important source of alumina in the
glassmaking and ceramics industries. In ceramics, it acts as
a flux and provides the vitreous luster of chinaware and
ceramic tiles.
Feldspar
is used in glazes and enamels and is an
important mineral filler in paints, plastics, sealants, and
adhesives.
Feldspar
BASIC COMPONENTS OF PORCELAIN
• Ball clays
• Kaolin
• Feldspar
The formation of _____ relies on the weathering or
hydrothermal alteration of aluminosilicates. Thus,_____
is formed in soils and sedimentary materials that contain
aluminosilicates.
kaolinite
In a variety of manufacturing contexts, such as ceramics,
porcelain, adhesive, concrete additives, and paper filler.
KAOLIN
It is also used in medicine for its anti-inflammatory,
antibacterial, antiviral, and antidiarrheal properties.
KAOLIN

PROPERTIES OF KAOLIN
Kaolinite is a white, powdery solid that does not absorb
T
T/F
PROPERTIES OF KAOLIN
Its melting point is between ____ and ___ degrees
Celsius
740, 1785
T/F
PROPERTIES OF KAOLIN
Its density is ___ grams per cubic centimeter.
2.65
T/F
PROPERTIES OF KAOLIN
In ceramics manufacturing, kaolin is used to modify the
properties of a ceramic body with the ball clay (plastic clay),
primarily to control and adjust the casting rate of the ceramic
body.

Metal substructure supporting a ceramic veneer that is
mechanically and chemically bonded.
METAL-CERAMIC RESTORATION
Achieved through firing.
METAL-CERAMIC RESTORATION
T/F
METAL PREPARATION
Sharp angles should be
avoided
Internal stress in the final
restoration
T
T/F
METAL PREPARATION
Convex surfaces and rounded
contours should be created To avoid development of stress
concentrations
T
T/F
METAL PREPARATION
Smooth surface, Facilitates wetting of the
framework by the porcelain
slurry
T
T/F
METAL PREPARATION
80° angle should be smooth
and defined for metal-ceramic
junction For easier finishing
F
(90° angle should be smooth
and defined for metal-ceramic
junction)
T/F
METAL PREPARATION
The metal framework must be
thick enough to prevent
distortion

METAL PREPARATION STEPS
• Shaping
• Investment Removal
• Oxide Removal
• Metal Finishing
• Cleaning
• Oxidizing
METAL PREPARATION
Ultrasonic cleaning to eliminate all investment material.
