		Grog is used in pottery and sculpture to add a gritty, rustic texture called "tooth"; it also also reduces shrinkage and promotes even drying.
		Grog is also a critical ingredient in ceramic rocket motor nozzles and bulkheads as Grog particles have sharp edges and angles which lock the clay structure together and thus prevent the clay layers from being ripped out by the supersonic exhaust jet.
