Firing range1000-1300
Chamotte portion40%

 

Body 596 is a lilac to yellow-coloured firing quality with 40 % chamotte 0 – 1.5 mm. The recommended firing range is 1000 °C – 1300 °C.
The plastic body is very well suitable for building-up large-sized pieces. A rustic surface design is possible because of the coarse chamotte. This quality is a highly-refractory body with a very good thermal shock resistance. Its play of colours makes the unglazed body very vivid.
