Across
- 4. can contribute to water resistance
- 5. paper clay slip
- 7. become part of the clay body during firing
- 9. can sometimes provided 'paper linters', large thick paper fibers that break down easily in water
- 10. provide ducts for the passage of the moisture drying out and thus the mass dries more uniformly
- 12. added to a body which enables it to withstand slightly higher temperature
- 14. a body;s ability to withstand handling, molding or machining before completely cured or hardened
- 15. must burn away during firing
Down
- 1. can withstand sudden temperature changes without cracking
- 2. burn out when fired and leave behind spongy holes
- 3. added to give strength to raw clay for sclupture
- 6. helps prevent warpage
- 8. combining clay and cellulose fiber from paper produces a versatile clay body that can be molded, modelled, slabbed, and coiled
- 11. type of clay found in nature
- 12. type of low-firing process that was inspired by traditional japanese raku firing
- 13. ceramic or organic, will give clay a "quality"
