Barium Carbonate
BaCO₃
Barium carbonate supplied for ceramic glaze flux, scum prevention in ceramic bodies, and specialty glass applications.
Overview
Barium carbonate introduces BaO into ceramic glaze melts after decomposition during firing, acting as a high-temperature flux that improves glaze smoothness and suppresses crawling and scum defects. In glass, it improves refractive index and chemical durability.
