In ceramic processing, polymers are often added to ceramic particles to allow for higher densities and sufficient green strength. The green body, or pre-fired ceramic, must have sufficient strength to hold its shape after being pressed. Binder burnout is a processing step performed before sintering, where the green body is heated until the polymer binder is burned out of the ceramic. Sintering is the process by which ceramics are densified. Sintering is done because ceramics have very high melting temperatures and reactive melts. In sintering, the green ceramic is heated to a high temperature, below the melting point of the ceramic, where high rates of diffusion are possible. The ceramic particles are joined into a solid monolith through diffusional movement of atoms.

No, paint thinner is not considered a binder. A binder is kind of like a glue that holds dried paint together and makes it stick to the surface that it is applied to.
Too much
If the paint contained no binder, it would mean the pigment particles in the paint would not hold together and the paint would have trouble sticking to a surface
Decocolor paint markers will work.
The purpose of the easel binder is to provide hands free content display. It also serves as a traditional and easy to carry three ring binder to hold presentation and other contents.
