Porcelain Stone-Clay Binary Formula / 瓷石瓷土二元配方

Porcelain Stone-Clay Binary Formula / 瓷石瓷土二元配方 is the material recipe in No.213 景德镇往事:千年“世界瓷都”的前世今生. The episode explains that early Jingdezhen production relied heavily on porcelain stone, but adding porcelain clay such as Kaolin / 高岭土 reduced deformation at high firing temperatures.

The formula matters because it turned local material knowledge into product range. More stable bodies made larger and more technically demanding wares possible, helping Jingdezhen / 景德镇 move from early small wares toward [[YuanBlueAndWhitePorcelain|large blue-and-white vessels]] and later imperial production.
