Mullite
Additional recommended knowledgeResearchers recently discovered [1] that potters in the Hesse region of Germany unknowingly used mullite to create crucibles, enabling alchemists to heat their crucibles to very high temperatures. The formula for making it (using kaolinitic clay and then firing it at temperatures above 1100 degrees) was kept a closely guarded secret. Mullite is present in the form of acicular crystals in porcelain. References
