Flux is described as a substance added to
glass, glazes, or vitrifiable
bodies, such as
porcelain, to lower the fusion point during
firing.
Fluxes are commonly added to
enamel colors to lower their fusion point to slightly below that of the
glaze to which they are applied, although some softening of the glaze is essential to bind the
enamels to it.
