Valentine ES300 Grogged Body Paper Clay
FLAXpaperCLAY gives the clay strength and flexibility while remaining lightweight. The clay has virtually no mould growth unlike all other paper clay bodies and will accept a range of firing types, Raku, Oxidation, Reduction, Salt, and Soda. The fibres create strong but flexible internal structure in the clay and creates a ‘capillary system’ that transfers moisture easily and evenly throughout the clay. Greenware re-wets easily and allows the potter to re-work alter and add new clay at any stage of dryness. It is possible with FLAXpaperCLAY body to build an armature and allow it to dry as a support sculpture that need not be removed for firing.
- Temperature Range 1100 - 1280°C.
- Shrinkage (w-d) 3 - 5%.
- Shrinkage (d-f) 4 - 6%.
- 0.21% expansion at 500°C.
- Texture (1-smooth 10 coarse) 6.
