Waiting to hear more.
On coral atoll these is nothing to use except coral and that does not cut 
it.

Thomas, robert e al;

Potassium aluminum silicate is I think Kaolin clay no ?

The smart thing is that you Bob HAstings seem to be  integrating a c of low 
denisty non structural but  highly  insulative material with a shell of 
harder more structural material which is either  cast into the insulative 
shell by use of secondary exterior mold  or perhaps you just paint the 
harder slurry material on to the surface of the insulative core material. 
Kobus Venter and Rok Oblak and probably a hundred others have experimented 
with the same thing in years past but you have managed to nail it down: 
Clever stuff and all the best to you…
Cheers,
Richard  Stanley

I took it to be K Si Al, Potassium Silicon Aluminum.  Possibly those are
major constituents of the ceramic?
