PIXE study on recovery of making-technology of Chinese Longquan celadon made in the Southern Song Dynasty (1127-1279 CE)

摘要

Proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE) technique and factor analysis were used to study the recovery of making technology of Chinese Longquan celadon made in the late Southern Song Dynasty (1127-1279 CE). Based on factor analysis, for the raw material for body and the recipe for glaze, there is a close but slightly different relationship between these Longquan celadons unearthed from the core area of Dayao and the non-core area, despite all the Longquan celadons belong to the high-calcium-glaze system. The chemical compositions of most of the tentative body and glaze samples are very close to those of Longquan celadons unearthed from the core area of Dayao and the non-core area. This study can provide a guidance for recovery of making-technology of Longquan celandon.
