Chapter 571 The Quality of Mineral Sources

"Isn't it very attractive? This is the benefit of breaking through the fourth level. I hope that you can all break through the fourth level. This is a watershed and a threshold. In principle, only those above the fourth level can generate benefits for the factory." artisan."

Seeing that everyone looked pensive, Chen Xingchen felt that it was okay.

"Now let's talk about it, how can we make profits for the factory as soon as possible? You may not be able to reach the fourth-level craftsmanship in a short period of time, but if we cooperate, we should be able to produce fourth-level works!"

"It's still the same sentence just now. Give full play to their respective advantages. What are your specialties? Heni is impatient, what about making mud strips? What about the apron? By the way, we are all professionals, so let's talk about professionalism, apron The tube is actually a vertical joint process, and the bottom of the pot is a horizontal joint process. Is there anyone who is good at butt jointing technology?"

"I, I'm good at getting pregnant!"

"Huh? Receiving a baby? Let's be more comprehensive, it's easy to cause misunderstandings."

"Ha ha......"

The originally serious scene was enlivened by Chen Xingchen.

Seeing Chen Xingchen like this, Chen Wenzhe really admired him.

"Okay, there are people who are good at tire jointing. It should be said that tire jointing technology, whether it is horizontal jointing or vertical jointing, seems to be very good at it. This is an important process that can be done best. Is there anyone who is good at one of the processes? ?”

"I'm the best at mixing mud!" At this moment, Chen Qinghu raised his hands in embarrassment.

No way, when he was in his hometown, Chen Wenzhe was the first to teach him how to make mud, and he practiced step by step from mud selection, mud filtering, and mud kneading.

At the beginning, these were the first things he did. After finishing these, he had the opportunity to learn how to make teapots from Chen Wenzhe.

In the past half a year, he has practiced making pots at home a lot, and the thing he does most is mixing clay.

Because the teapots he failed to make were kneaded into balls, mixed again, and then made into teapots.

After tossing and turning like this, his kneading skills, or in other words, the level of mud training, is already considered acceptable.

"Haha, another important process is about to pass, is there any more? It's hard to make mud sticks? It's not easy to cut mud sticks? In fact, making the bottom and lid of the pot should be considered a relatively difficult process, right?"

"Brother, let me make the bottom of the pot! Cutting mud strips and making the bottom of the pot are actually similar in craftsmanship. I have some experience in cutting."

"I will make the handle of the pot. This is the simplest shape, and I have some experience."

"Then I'll make the spout! My carving skills are still good."

"What about the pot lid? There's just one more pot button. What's the problem?"

"Brother, this is not easy, why don't you do it? It involves tire connection, shaping, cutting, gluing and other processes!"

"Okay, you guys just want to be lazy, do you want me to finish the final trimming and shaping of the pot body?"

"No need, Senior Brother Chen, I feel that my technique of splicing tires is okay. I can help with the final gluing, and the initial shaping is also fine. The final trimming can only be done by you, or by the boss?"

"Give me back my army? Let's make one to test the waters first, let the boss also look at our craftsmanship, and see if it meets Yi Nian Tang's sales standards!"

Just do what you say, Chen Xingchen has always been a man of action, especially his execution ability, he is very strong.

You know, before Professor Tao's studio, he was in charge of all the logistics.

Start making purple clay teapots again, this time much more orderly.

From the beginning of practicing mud, the speed is very fast.

Working in a group is not about fighting alone.

Even if other people don't have much confidence in practicing mud, they still do what they should.

So with the help of some classmates, Chen Qinghu's mixing speed is still very fast.

Zisha mud is also good or bad, even true and false.

The most fundamental factor for the quality of purple sand mud depends on the quality of the ore source.

Secondly, processing, formula, and refining are also very important factors.

In a more detailed consideration, the craftsmanship of the production work, the skill of construction and the conditions of firing will also affect the final performance of the material.

Chen Wenzhe had taught Chen Qinghu about the mineral source and the general process of preparation, and Chen Qinghu was very confident about this.

Chen Wenzhe is amazing, he has seen too much.

As for the level of Chen Qinghu's mud selection and mud training, in fact, the simplest and most practical method can be used for analysis and judgment - comparison.

As the saying goes, "Don't be afraid of not knowing the goods, but be afraid of comparing goods."

If you want to know the level, you can compare several similar works in terms of the naturalness of color, richness of particles, softness of texture, and compactness of structure.

Comparing before and after, the effect is clear at a glance.

Of course, the people here are all professionals. You can tell whether the mud is good or not by rubbing it with your hands.

In short, the most fundamental point to distinguish between true and false lies in the connotation and mechanism texture of its appreciable range.

These have to be made into pots to be seen.

In fact, Chen Wenzhe could feel the quality of the purple sand clay in the batch they made before, even before it was fired.

He knew that this was probably not pure purple sand, and it could be said to be fake purple sand, but this quality of purple sand was already very good.

Because from the perspective of mineralogy structure, purple sand clay, like many other clays, mainly contains silicon, aluminum, titanium, iron and some salts with different particles, and there are only some differences in combination ratio and particle composition.

Therefore, as long as the ratio of clay and mineral grains is suitable, and the plasticity is roughly within the range that can be made, the traditional purple sand technology can be used to make cups, pots, basins, cans and other utensils.

Therefore, there are many purple sand products on the market, and the soil used is made of minerals other than the local Huanglong Mountain.

Of course, its quality is difficult to meet the quality index of the mine in this mountain, but there are also some muds that are relatively close, which makes it difficult for people without in-depth professional knowledge to distinguish.

But since the mineral indicators are all similar raw materials, how can there be an absolute standard between true and false?

The counterfeiting of anything is due to the excessive market demand and the expansion of some businessmen's appetite for profit.

Under the Huanglong Mountain in Dingshan, the survey in the 70s showed that the total mud content was about 200 million tons.

And there are many interlayer materials that cannot be used to make teapots.

During the first purple sand spring (80s of the last century) that started on Taiwan Island and lasted for nearly ten years, there was still ample supply.

Today, the demand in the mainland market has far exceeded that of that year.

Based on the current mud demand in the entire Zisha pottery production area, teapots alone consume more than [-] tons per day.

The amount of mud used for cups, pots, pots and miscellaneous items is even greater!
