Alternate Names: C1251 Fritte, C 1251 Fritte, Ceradel Frit 1251
Description: Lead monosilicate frit, Monosilicate de plomb
| Oxide | Analysis | Formula | Tolerance |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiO2 | 21.21% | 1.00 | |
| PbO | 78.79% | 1.00 | |
| Oxide Weight | 283.28 | ||
| Formula Weight | 283.28 | ||
This analysis is guessed, the manufacturer calls it a lead monosilicate and provides the approximate chemistry of (SiO2 - 15-40%, PbO 60-100%). However, since the lead monosilicate analysis is theoretically 1:1 lead:silica that is what we have assigned here.
| Materials |
Frit
Frits are made by melting mixes of raw materials, quenching the melt in water, grinding the pebbles into a powder. Frits have chemistries raw materials cannot. |
| Materials |
Ceradel Frit C 1249
|
| Materials |
Lead Bisilicate Frit
A standard frit of 1 molar part of PbO and 2 of SiO2. It is considered stable and non-leachable. |
| Materials |
Lead Monosilicate Frit
A standard frit of 1 molar part of PbO and 1 of SiO2. It melts lower than a lead bisilicate. |
| Typecodes |
Leaded Frit
Frits can contain 1% or 80% PbO so this category can be misleading, check the chemistry to find out. |
