2 Technical features Glazes A ceramic glaze is a vitreous material prepared from the milling of two types of constituents: mineral raw materials (non soluble in water) frits The frit/raw material ratio in a formula mainly depends on the firing temperature of the ceramic the glaze is applied on. The amount of frit can vary from 0 (ex. sanitaryware porcelain with a firing temperature > 250 C) to 95 (ex. earthenware fired at < 00 C). Glazes and engobes are made from raw materials with low Fe 2 O 3 content which bring the following chemical properties: - Glass former: SiO 2, B 2 O 3 - Stabilizer (to avoid a recrystallisation): Al 2 O 3 - Flux: CaO, MgO, Na 2 O, K 2 O, ZnO, BaO, PbO... Different techniques are used to apply the slurry onto the green or fired biscuit to make it impermeable after maturation. Engobes The engobe is an undercoat applied between the biscuit and the glaze. Its role is: to mask biscuit coloration to reduce glaze defects such as stains, spots and pitting to make the tile waterproof to prevent water rising to the surface after laying to limit the quantity of glaze necessary. To meet these requirements, the engobe must have: a maximum whiteness and high opacity a controlled fusibility to obtain a waterproof layer when the glaze is applied a thermal expansion coefficient adapted to the biscuit good rheological properties to facilitate application. functions for Glazes and Engobes: The main function of alumina in a glaze formulation is to increase the viscosity and limit the fluidity of the glaze, thus avoiding smudges. It also increases the mechanical resistance and scratch resistance. The glaze could be matt or glossy, transparent or opaque. Hard calcined alumina gives a shiny and transparent effect, while reactive alumina gives a matt and opaque effect. Special reactive alumina gives opacification and replaces totally or partially zircon sands in the formulation of engobes and glazes to give whiteness and opacification. Inks for Digital Printing The ink is made from a suspension of extra fine pigments, at the right temperature and with the right viscosity. Since the year 2000, new machines for inkjet decoration of tiles has been developed, able to decorate tiles 24 hours-a-day (000-0 m 2 /hour output). Inkjet decoration machines fit perfectly into glazing lines and improve efficiency. They can have up to 000 nozzles and work with 6 (or more) different inks. This machine uses inks having particles up to micron, which is the maximum size allowed by the process. The ink is shot from a connected nozzle (having an internal diameter of about 0.04 mm) to the target (whose distance can vary from a few millimeters to cm). The key parameter of the raw material used in the inks is particle size distribution. The pigments must be well dispersed and have particles sizes of less than micron. Pigments can lose their staining power when particles are too fine because the increased surface area exposes the crystal structure to chemical attack by glazes and bodies. functions: Super ground alumina has a very well controlled particle size distribution and top cut. Its high level of fineness allows it to be used in ink permitting distinctive and unique colour brightness, texture and surface effect. 02
3 Frits A frit could be considered as glass and is one of the components of the glaze. Surface reinforcement Frits are the result of the fusion (at C) between constituents sometimes soluble and toxic (lead, baryum, zinc salts, borax) and silica. There are three groups of oxides in the amorphous structure of the glass. Milled white fused alumina is added to the glaze to obtain a rough surface. Depending on its granulometry, this WFA is used for its abrasion resistance and anti-slip properties. Acids: Alkalis: Amphoterics: silicium, boron sodium, potassium, calcium aluminium functions: The Aluminium ion takes the place of the Si ion in the crystalline network. This enables the make up of the glaze to be varied without modifying the mechanical properties. 03
4 Porcelain Stoneware Glazed stoneware tiles are usually floor tiles defined according to the standard EN 44: 202. They may be classified in 2 sub-families, taking into account their porosity (water absorption): Group I porosity (WA) < 3 Group IIA porosity (WA) between 3 and 6 The function of these building materials is mainly aesthetic for floors and walls but a good abrasion resistance of the glazed surface is also required. Glazed floor tiles may be manufactured either from: * red bodies (natural stoneware made of ferruginous clays and no feldspars) or * light coloured bodies (feldspathic stoneware) Manufacturing: mainly single-fast firing in roller kilns (fast cycle of 30 to 45 mn) - at about 200 C. Standard formula () Ball clays Silica sand Feldspars > > > (or pitchers) (Soda or mixed) Fully vitrified tiles, also called PORCELLANATO, are products made from either white or coloured bodies with a porosity (water absorption) below 0.5. Here, the porosity has to be < 0. to ensure a good stain resistance (stains being the weak point of these products) Because of their mechanical resistance (wear, compression), these materials are well adapted to heavy duty applications (supermarkets, public buildings...). To achieve the aesthetic aspect, part of the production (0 to 25) is polished on continuous machines in order to give a gloss surface. Stain resistance is very delicate for fully vitrified tiles as polishing can remove the surface film from the fired tiles. This can open the internal pores of the material (closed micro-porosity). Fast firing in roller kilns at 200/230 C during 50 to 70 min cycles. Short cycles require the use of raw materials with little organic material content (organic carbon emphasizes black cores which originates from the reduction of iron contained in the clays). Polishing (for a part of the production only) Standard formula () Ball clays 30 > 40 Kaolins 3 > 7 Feldspars 45 > 57 Silica sand 3 > 5 Zircon,5 > 5 Other (flux) 0,5 2 > (or pegmatites) Note: raw materials for super white bodies (5 of the market) must have a Fe 2 O 3 + TiO 2 content <. Zircon and/or is added for whiteness. functions: The alumina binds with part of the silica to form mullite and this silicate is the bone of porcelain stoneware. It increases the mechanical resistance and avoids pyroclastic distortion (thermal expansion stabilization and vitreous phase viscosity increase). replaces completely zircon sands in the formulation to maintain the whiteness of the body. 04
5 Tableware Pigment Alumino porcelain, vitreous tableware for hotelware. A pigment is a mix of raw materials and oxides. functions: Ground calcined alumina may be used in ceramic bodies to adjust mineralogical composition and provide high performance which is required for the intensive use of hotelware. Improves thermal shock Improves scratch and abrasion resistance Improves mechanical resistance The development of a colour is obtained by the reaction between alumina and other oxides. The complex compounds that are obtained are aluminous spinels (Al 2 +++, M++, O 4 ), with the following colours: Al-Co (Cobalt) Al-Cr (Chrome) Al-Mn (Manganese) blue colour pink colour red colour functions: Precipitated micronic alumina trihydrate is used with cobalt to obtain the colour blue. Reactive alumina is used with manganese to obtain the colour red.
