Kaolin:

This is very pure clay and serves as a standard to compare other clays for glazes.

Ball Clay:

Similar to kaolin, but the particles were deposited in swampy areas where the organic acids and compounds released from decaying vegetation served to break down the clay particles into even finer sizes than those of sedimentary kaolins.

Stoneware:

These are, generally, plastic clays that fire in the range of cone 6 to 10.

Fireclays:

These are high-firing clays commonly used for insulating bricks, hard firebrick and kiln furniture. Some are plastic, some aren't.

Earthenware:

These are low-firing clays (cone 08 - 02).

Slip Clay :

These are clays that naturally contain enough flux that they function as a glaze without further additions.

When working with a mold what is best clay to use?

There are different types of molds and so different types of clay work best in specific molds. Plaster molds are generally used with clay in liquid form, known as slip. In this type of mold, the porous plaster absorbs water and the solid clay is deposited on the inside of the mold, allowed to stiffen and then the mold is disassembled and the casting removed and trimmed. Slump molds or hump molds are generally used with clay slabs and the clay depends on what you are looking for in the end results: porcelain, stoneware, low-fire clay etc.

Is Crayola air dry clay the same as modeling clay?

Both types of clay are the same. You can use both types of clay to create things. I looked into this and found out that both dry up after a while if you want it to. If you want to paint the clay after it is dry is sort of a mystery to me. I absolutely know that after the crayola air dry clay drys you can definitely paint it. With other types of modeling clay, I am not so sure. I hope this helps.

What temperature should you bake eraser clay?

Clay (real clay that comes from the ground, not a plastic product) is fired in a kiln, not "baked in a oven." After is is fired it is called pottery or ceramic. Different types of clay fire at different temperatures and different lengths of time. Most are fired two times: first at a lower temperature and then at a higher temperature with glaze on the surface (sometimes the reverse). Some pottery does not have glaze, and some is only fired once.
