>         Even when fired at the highest temperature for 2 hours? 

    Yes, the shrinkage is a little bit more when fired at 1650 for two
    hours, I'm sorry I don't know the percentage.  Please visit 

    http://www.PMCGuild.com, follow the link the PMC Conference, then
    technical resources, 2002 Conference, Handouts, third one down
    "Comparative Chart of Firing Temperatures" gives you the most
    complete information available on the subject. 

    If you still have questions after that, anyone may email Tim
    McCreight through the PMC Guild website with technical questions.
