Produção de peças cerâmicas pela técnica de colagem de barbotina utilizando argila da região de Jacobina - Bahia

Abstract

The identity of Bahia is based on pillars that are reinforced every year. As main goal, this work approaches an ancient technique of producing ceramic pieces using the clay found in the region of Jacobina-BA by casting slip – a widely used technique and of low cost. To use the minerals collected, a characterization of the materials was carried out, using techniques as X-Ray Diffraction, X-Ray Fluorescence and Thermal Analysis. Although it is a simple process, it is necessary to monitor and study it in order to obtain the required knowledge to execute the project, always regarding the ecology and the promotion of arts and decoration, the real purpose of those techniques.
