mullite
any of a type of rare mineral consisting of aluminum silicate (3Al2O32SiO2). It is formed upon firing aluminosilicate raw materials and is the most important constituent of ceramic whiteware, porcelains, and high-temperature insulating and refractory materials. Compositions, such as mullite, having an alumina-silica ratio of at least 3:2 will not melt below 1,810 C (3,290 F), whereas those with a lower ratio partially melt at temperatures as low as 1,545 C (2,813 F)
