What is this polymer clay stuff
Senin, 2008 September 08
Maybe You've found that most people are familiar with the traditional organic clay described by the Merriam-Webster Dictionary as “the plastic earthy material used in making pottery that consist largely of silicates of aluminum and becomes permanently hardened firing.” Clays like terra cotta have been utilized since the beginning of time by ancient and modern civilizations for hand-built and wheel-thrown pottery making.
Some people are less familiar with the colorful plastic-based clay known as polymer clay easily found in popular chain craft stores marketed under the brands of Sculpey and Fimo.
So what exactly is polymer clay? One clay expert, Kellie Robinson of Kellies Clay describes it like this:
One of complete resources about polimer clay is www.sculpey.com.“Polymer clay is one of the most exciting, versatile, colorful artist's medium today. It is a plastic based clay, made up of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) suspended in a plasticizer. When cured, it fuses into a very hard plastic. What makes Polymer clay exciting is its versatility. It can be sculpted, carved, stamped, textured, and even sanded and buffed to a high shine.”
