clorine and glaze combinations

updated tue 19 feb 02

 

Bun Bun on fri 8 feb 02


Heavens do I try to stay away from a chemical that IS a deadly nerve poison.
They shut down freeways because of clorine spills, yet we use it all the
time, in swimming pools, drinking water, cleaning. Yet no one hardly ever
thinks of any alternative,,,, even when there is one. A chemical that is
more safe, leaves no deadly nerve fumes, and is found in rain storms,,,,
what is it???? H2O2 water with an extra molecule of oxygen! Can that sound
deadly? Will it clean off mold,, yes bubbles right off. where can you get
it. At any store,, its called hydrogen peroxide.

Now glazes,,, I have to admit I am really talented,,,but,,, when it comes to
color/texture combinations in glazes I am a real dud. Are there any good
books on the subject? Any sugestions would be helpful.

Dear Ridgerunbunny
There is so much information pertaining to your question regarding glaze
combinations. But it is essential to know what range you use and how you
fire your clay. From there you will receive a lot of information.
regards from Alisa in Denmark

Hydrogen peroxide is in liquid form, (and not as effective at killing
spores) making fumigation impossible. Any surfaces not actually wet by it
will only get a dose of oxygen from it's decomposition.......and that won't
kill much.
If I'm not mistaken, chlorine dioxide was used for the anthrax
decontamination.

I wonder why the post offices and the government used chlorine to kill the
anthrax germs then?

I'm not sure that "chlorine dioxide" exists. Can't see how a compound could form
exclusively from cations (O -2, Cl -1).

It does indeed. Very active needless to say. Used in bleaching situations
where on-site equipment is set up to generate it since it's so unstable.
e.g. commercial laundries, and paper mills ( where it creates less dioxins)
Do a search for "chlorine dioxide", interesting reading / info if you're
chemically inclined. ( trichlorine nitride is also a very interesting one )
