Operating
in the Formula to Recipe Environment
Creating new
recipes from formula can be a demanding task but it is made easier
through the new options offered in Matrix V5. In all operations
involving the manipulation of either recipes or formula a thorough
knowledge of raw materials is a great advantage if not essential.
If your are
manipulating a recipe to achieve particular qualities a knowledge
of the properties of the oxides is also essential.
