Vitrification (from Latin vitreum, `glass` via French vitrifier) is the transformation of a substance into a glass. Usually, it is achieved by rapidly cooling a liquid through the glass transition. Certain chemical reactions also result in glasses. An important application is the vitrification of an antifreeze-like liquid in cryopreservation. Vi.....

This process is brought about by exposing a pot to high heat. Here, a clay or glaze will go through a chemical change and fuse together. The process of vitrification converts clay (as a soluble material) into insoluble, permanent ceramic.
