Composition of the vitrifiable colours

A vitrifiable colours  for glass decoration consists of one or more frits, of one or more inorganic pigments and of a vehicle necessary for its application. This affects the drafting, the quality and the compactness of the applied colour layer. The purpose of these vehicles is to:

  • Keep  all the frits and pigments in suspension
  • Give  to the product rheological properties suitable for processing and application
  • Provide sufficient adhesion to the surface on which it is applied
  • Form  compact and stable layers, without dripping
  • Contribute , after drying , to the formation of a biscuit with sufficient resistance to manual handling.
  • Leave resinous residues in the biscuit that can burn completely during the preheating phase, before the colours  is vitrified.

Three types of vehicles are available:

  • waterborne  vehicles
  • Pine Oil based vehicles
  • Based on  low melting point special waxes

All these products have been developed over many  years of practical experience and made following rigorous production methods that guarantee and impart the right characteristics of wettability of the powders and viscosity of the vehicle-color compound to the product.
