In most cases companies use China or say porcelain in industrial production as it is easy to cast and it is the white clay due to the fact that it contains more of kaolin than earth or ball clay. The white color is brought about by its composition and even after the kiln it is white although they are glazed to increase the Porosity and its resistance to acids and ware plus tear.

∙ 11y agoIn the cosmetics / beauty / spa industry, powdered white kaolin clay is most often used as a facial mask for the purpose of drawing impurities to the surface of the skin to be rinsed away.
Simply mix a small amount of clay with warm water and apply to clean skin as a paste. It can be as thin or as thick as you like, but refrain from using it too close to the eyes. Wait until it dries, then rinse with cool water to reveal silky-smooth skin. Imparts a deeply cleansed and refreshed feeling.

Why is porcelain different from other types of pottery?
Well porcelain is made from a very fine white clay called china clay or kaolinite. 1400°C is used when firing it. However, many modern ceramic materials are not made from clay, instead they are produced from silicon and zirconium compounds, zirconia (ZrO ) or silicon nitride (Si3N4)I really hope that helps ;)

Why is fine china called china if it is made in England or another country?
Fine china is made of a white clay made to imitate porcelain. Porcelain is one of the many types of clay used in China. Porcelain is considered valuable because of its white color and translucence. Porcelain is made of three materials: quartz, feldspar & kaolin (refined white clay) fired at a very high temperature. This was first made in China, creating the category "chinaware" In the 1700's the Europeans tried to copy the formula by trial and error. Meissen succeeded. The raw materials were found in Germany and France (Limoges region) and these countries produced porcelain. In Britain, they substituted bone ash for the quartz and feldspar creating bone china. Fine china is a created category, usually referring to bone china and porcelain as opposed to stoneware, ironstone and earthenware which is fired at a lower temperature and prone to chipping and crazing.
