Abstract
A method of reducing the defects in ceramic articles and precursors, particularly ceramic articles and precursors made using a batch composition containing an oil phase material. The method includes increasing the concentration of a water insoluble soap in the batch composition, which can increase the cohesive strength of the oil phase, leading to a reduction in the incidence of defects in the ceramic articles and precursors.
