The practice of stone pot

The traditional stone pot is a ceramic product made of raw materials that are difficult to transfer heat, such as seasonable, feldspar and clay. Fired at high temperature, it has the characteristics of air permeability, adsorption, uniform heat transfer and slow heat dissipation.

Due to the problems of manufacturing technology and raw materials, the traditional casserole is not resistant to the change of temperature difference, easy to burst and cannot be dry-burned. In order to solve this problem of traditional stone pot, in recent ten years, spodumene was added into raw materials to make a high-temperature resistant casserole, which can withstand the high temperature of several hundred degrees without cracking while maintaining its original advantages, greatly improving the practicability of the casserole.

Stone pot is a kind of pottery. The invention of Tao is an epoch-making symbol in the development history of human society and the greatest invention of human development. Legend has it that Emperor Yao invented the casserole, which has a history of thousands of years.

Archaeological findings show that as early as the Neolithic Age, people began to use sand-filled pottery (similar to the current casserole). Sand-mixed pottery is a common kind of pottery in Neolithic Age, mainly red pottery and gray pottery. After the improvement of the past dynasties, the sand-mixed pottery evolved into the stone pot used now.
