Does Ceramic Tile Have Radiation?

Now each building has tiled tile, become indispensable adornment.But everything has two sides.With the requirement of ceramic tile expanding continuously, then the problem comes:does ceramic tile have radiation?Let’s know the problem:
Ceramic tile radiation refers to the phenomenon that ceramic tile contains radioactive material, the radioactivity of glaze brick is more apparent.Glazed ceramic tile is to apply a layer of glaze on ceramic tile base, ceramic tile surface color is varied, pattern and pattern is rich.Most of the ceramic tiles are from potassium minerals, such as feldspar and mica, which contain certain radioactive substances such as uranium and potassium. It is still radioactive after the process of physical chemistry, such as pulverization and sintering. And in order to clean the surface of the tile, the raw materials often include the high radioactive zirconium sand, which also makes some tiles highly radioactive.
The national building materials test center, however, ceramic and stone detection department senior engineering expressed: add a small amount of zirconium silicate porcelain production process is a kind of modern production technology, has a history of more than ten years in our country, it is comparatively mature technology.The radioactivity of brick is very little, wait for a year in normal household environment to absorb radiation quantity, much less than do an X-ray examination, so need not worry completely.And the radiation effect of ceramic tile on human body is less than the radiation that USES mobile phone to talk a minute to produce the influence big.

Glazed Tile Selection Guide

First, to see the stability of glazed tiles.

Glazed tile according to its production process can be divided into a single firing and two firing. But according to its stability, glazed tile SINGLE-FIRED relative to the two firing for thermal stability will be better, but the process of two kinds of production have their advantages and disadvantages, therefore, consumers can also choose according to different requirements in the purchase.

Two, look at the green strength of glazed tiles.

When choosing the best choice for a well-known brand manufacturers, have the test proved that high standards to ensure brand manufacturers can be suspended load more than 100kg will not have fracture phenomenon, but some poor ordinary manufacturers are unable to bear the pressure of 50kg, some of them are still prone to cracking phenomenon. Therefore, in the purchase to see the brand awareness of manufacturers.

Three. Look at the water absorption rate of glazed tiles.

In general, the wall glazed tile in the water absorption rate is about 10-20%, manufacturers are generally around 18%, and a glazed brick firing and the water absorption rate of only 10%-13%, if some high water absorption tiles in the tiling is very dirty in the cement, agreed to absorb, it will be easy to make.

Compared with the ordinary glazed tile, the differences are mainly shown above in the glaze color, antique tiles belong to ordinary ceramic tile, and the disk is basically the same; the only difference is in the firing process, antique wall technical content is relatively high, and through many kinds of production processes, with high strength, waterproof, anti-skid, corrosion resistance and easy cleaning features.

What is called “antique” refers to the color, pattern and effect of wall tiles. Antique wall pattern with wood, imitation stone, imitation leather; there are imitation plants flowers, geometric patterns, imitation imitation fabric, imitation wallpaper, imitation metal etc.. After firing, the pattern can be soft cast, half cast and full cast. The design patterns and colors of antique wall tiles are the most colorful of all ceramic glazed tiles.

Antique wall to calm, elegant, simple, natural, quiet beauty, the antique wall inside the building in reincarnation people into another old world and memories.

Diagonal ratio dimension

Two pieces of the same kind of brick face to face overlap, four corners aligned, rotating one of the four sides of the same size is always good. This method is especially suitable for glazed tile inspection.

Check the flatness

Two pieces of the same kind of brick face to face overlap, four corners alignment, rotating one of the pieces, easy to turn, poor quality, and vice versa. This method can not be used to detect antique brick. The remarkable feature of archaize brick is the arbitrary change of surface color and pattern, and the surface can be uneven.

Look at the water absorption rate

The size of water absorption is an important sign of tile quality. When a small cup of water is poured on the back of the brick, the faster the water disappears, the higher the water absorption rate is, the looser the texture is and the weaker the strength is.

Look at the smoothness

This is an important indicator of the quality of polished tiles. Clean the surface of the polished tile with soft cloth or reagent. Put it in the light or sunlight, and see the angle of 45 degrees. The brighter the surface, the better.
