What is the difference between clay? What are the three types of common clays?

The difference between clay and clay is:

First, the reference is different.

1. Clay: a widely distributed colloidal matte and cohesive soil.

2. Clay: soil with few sand particles and clayey.

Second, the focus is different.

1. Clay: Clay is used in industry, model making, and art to make models.

2. Clay: Clay is formed by the weathering of silicate minerals on the earth's surface, and is generally weathered in situ.

Clays are generally formed by the weathering of silicate minerals on the earth's surface. Generally, weathered in situ, the particles are large and the composition is close to the original stone, which is called primary clay or primary clay. The composition of this clay is mainly silicon oxide and alumina, which is white and fire-resistant, and is the main raw material for the preparation of porcelain clay.

The clay continues to weather, becomes smaller, and then migrates through flowing water and wind, and forms a thick layer of clay downstream, called secondary clay or secondary clay. This clay is contaminated, contains more metal oxides, is dark in color and has low refractoriness. Because of its good viscosity and plasticity, it is the main raw material for the preparation of clay.

Common types of clay are:

Paper clay is also known as "pulp clay". Ingredients include pulp, gum, feldspar and fiber, among others. There is no need to barbecue, and the texture after drying is between clay and gypsum, which will not be broken and can be stored forever without deformation.

It can not only be carved, but also attached to various objects pasted and shaped, and can be well matched with stone, wood and glass, and is widely used.

2. Oils:

Oil clay is generally used as an auxiliary after the completion of the work, for example, when making a clay flower bonsai, you only need to take out an appropriate amount of clay and put it in the pot, and insert the work to make the work stable. The characteristics of oil clay are: soft and hard oil sludge will not harden even if exposed to air, in general, you only need to choose soft oil sludge or hard oil sludge according to your preference.

3. Reins:

Resin clay is most suitable for flowers, which can be stretched to a very thin surface to make a very light and natural feeling, but the work made is more matte, and the oil paint must be swept on the surface after the work is dried to increase its beauty and three-dimensionality.

Clay soil is a clayey soil with few sand particles, and it is not easy for water to pass through it to have good plasticity. General clay is formed by silicate minerals after weathering on the earth's surface, generally weathered in situ, with large particles and composition close to the original stone, called primary clay or primary clay.
