While cobalt carbonate disperses better into a slurry than cobalt oxide, the carbonate will produce carbon dioxide gas in the firing, meaning it can cause blistering and pinholes in the glaze it was added to. Cobalt Carbonate is often used instead of cobalt oxide because it is able to disperse itself in glazes better, yielding a more solid color rather than a patchy or speckled color that often shows itself when cobalt oxide is used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eInformation gathered from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/digitalfire.com\/material\/list\"\u003eDigitalfire Ceramic Materials \u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/digitalfire.com\/material\/list\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDatabase\u003c\/a\u003e and The Potter's Dictionary of Materials and Techniques by Frank Hamer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GE Chaplin","offers":[{"title":"pound","offer_id":49262348796201,"sku":"RMCOCARB","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"half pound","offer_id":49262348828969,"sku":"RMCOCARB-H","price":24.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"quarter pound","offer_id":49262348861737,"sku":"RMCOCARB-Q","price":12.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/3726\/7497\/files\/IMG_3808.heic?v=1769541671"},{"product_id":"nickel-carbonate-green","title":"Nickel Carbonate Green","description":"\u003cp\u003eNickel Carbonate Green is a colorant commonly used in glaze recipes.
