Notes

Lowers surface tension of melts and thus can be used to encourage crystal development (i.e. with titanium), variegate colorants, impart silvery coloration, opacify. Also used in yellow stains and as a color stabilizer and in lustres to add gold coloration. It is generally a weak influence in these areas.

MoO3 can varporize and have effects on other glazes.
