AS 45 highly calcinated chamotte

The highly-tempered kaolin chamotte AS 45 from Amberger Kaolinwerke has traditionally been an outstanding component of ceramic glazes of nearly all kinds.

Kaolin pellets are fired in a rotary kiln at 1380°C to achieve a high degree of calcination. This high-quality product is available in granular or powder form.

All quartz products supplied by the Quarzwerke Group are subjected to ongoing chemical analysis and purity tests. This quality assurance explains why our highly pure quartz products are used in many different kinds of ceramic clays, including premium glazes.
