T-Material

Notes

A a very refractory white clay with a high molochite content made by Morgan Refractories. Cheshire, UK (also available from Potclays, Stoke-on-Trent). (They also make Triton Kaowool ceramic fibre). It is much copied by other clay makers. It is an excellent hand building clay and a useful addition to raku bodies.

T-material was used by Hans Coper.
Y-material is a cheaper version of the same.
