This residue is a chemical combination of silica lvith alunina, and is termed silicate of alurnina. In all clays it is in a hydrated form, i.e. it is chemically cornlined with water which cannot be expelled by heating the compound to the boiling- point of water. Most clays contain, in addition to the hydrous silicate of alumina, a variable proportion of free silica and other substances in a state of mechanical as distinguished from chemical association with l POTTERY thenl. Of such admixtures, the potash, soda, lime, or oxide of iron, which may have been pfcsent in the original felspar, are remorred to a great extent in the form of soluble carbonates or bicarbonates b. the action of water holding carbon dioxide carbonic acid gas in solution. rhe Illanner io which a clay behaves on exposure to heat is greatly affect |
