In the comparative examples, mullite is replaced by alumina in the comparative example 1, the glaze surface of the matt glaze prepared by the formula is rough, and although the matt effect is improved, large gaps exist in the matt glaze, so that the glaze surface absorbs dirt, and the pollution resistance is obviously reduced; the comparative examples 2 and 5 adopt common frits to replace low-expansion frits, and although the prepared ceramic products have good appearance flatness, the microcrystalline gap filling effect does not exist, the glaze surface is easy to absorb dirt, and the reduction degree of the pollution resistance is extremely obvious; in the comparative example 3, the content of calcium metasilicate exceeds the range, the liquid phase amount of the glaze surface is increased rapidly, so that the bright effect is caused, the glossiness is too high, the matte effect cannot be realized, and meanwhile, the hardness is too low, so that the related requirements of the ceramic product cannot be met; in the comparative example 4, the content of calcium metasilicate is lower, the content of calcined talc is higher, and the content of the mackerite crystal and periclase on the surface layer of the glaze is further increased, so that pits of the glaze are gradually increased, the glossiness of the glaze is reduced, and the glaze starts to absorb dirt; in the comparative example 6 and the comparative example 7, the quartz content exceeds the range, the liquid phase amount of the glaze surface is increased, the glossiness of the ceramic product is obviously higher, the hardness value is lower, and the standard required by production cannot be reached; moreover, comparative example 6 also has a lower content of low-expansion clinker, which results in unacceptable dirt pick-up of the ceramic product, and also fails to meet the standards required for the production of sanitary ceramics.
Example 6
This example provides a microcrystalline stain resistant matte glaze composition comprising 2 parts by mass of quartz, 29 parts by mass of potassium feldspar, 8 parts by mass of nepheline, 4 parts by mass of Chaozhou water-washed clay, 20 parts by mass of mullite, 25 parts by mass of calcium metasilicate, 4 parts by mass of low-expansion frit, 5 parts by mass of calcined talc, and 3 parts by mass of calcined zinc oxide.
Example 7
The present embodiment provides a microcrystalline stain resistant matte glaze composition, which comprises 7 parts by mass of quartz, 16 parts by mass of potassium feldspar, 15 parts by mass of nepheline, 4 parts by mass of Chaozhou water-washed clay, 10 parts by mass of mullite, 25 parts by mass of calcium metasilicate, 10 parts by mass of low-expansion frit, 10 parts by mass of calcined talc, and 3 parts by mass of calcined zinc oxide.
Example 8
This example provides a microcrystalline stain resistant matte glaze composition comprising 7 parts by mass of quartz, 27 parts by mass of potassium feldspar, 17 parts by mass of nepheline, 4 parts by mass of Chaozhou water-washed clay, 20 parts by mass of mullite, 15 parts by mass of calcium metasilicate, 5 parts by mass of low-expansion frit, 4 parts by mass of calcined talc, and 1 part by mass of calcined zinc oxide.
The above examples can obtain matte, stain resistant and hardness similar to those of examples 1 to 5, and are not described in detail herein.
It can be seen from the above examples and comparative examples that the microcrystalline matte in the scheme of the application is mainly crystallized as mullite crystals, and a large amount of dense fine crystals can be separated out by grinding the mullite crystals to keep a certain particle size, so that a matte effect is formed, and the microcrystalline matte has the advantages of low-temperature rapid-firing and rapid-cooling, and the like. Meanwhile, the calcium metasilicate and the calcined talc start solid phase reaction at 1160 ℃ to 1190 ℃ to gradually form the mawstone and the mawstone, and the mawstone are reserved by quenching under the condition that the mawstone and the mawstone are not further subjected to solid phase reaction to form more stable forms such as anorthite and the like, and a crystal assembly of the mawstone and the mullite is formed, so that the strength of a glaze surface and the matte effect are further improved. The low-expansion frits used in the method have a wide sintering range, can keep a liquid phase state at the sintering temperature in the application, and can be more easily dispersed in the gaps among the three crystals for filling, so that the glaze surface does not contain a pinhole structure, and the pollution resistance is improved under the condition of no gap; and these specific low-expansion frits have a high silica content, while B 2 O 3 The content is less, so that the internal reaction balance is enough, sufficient silicon dioxide in the frit can be dissolved firstly, and the silicon dioxide hardly participates in dissolving quartz outside the frit, so that the dissolution of crystals in the glaze can be greatly reduced, and the amount of precipitated crystals is ensured; meanwhile, caO in the glaze can also participate in the reaction of high-ratio calcium metasilicate and calcined talc to form mauveite and mauveite, and the crystal amount of the mauveite and the mauveite is increased, so that the crystal amount can be increased from multiple aspects, the microcrystal effect can be increased, and the dense microcrystal can bring the improvement of the hardness, compared with the Vickers hardness of about 630-650 of common white glaze, the Vickers hardness can reach more than 820 in the application, the glaze surface is more wear-resistant, and the glaze surface is antifouling and easy to clean, has no gap to store scale, reduces bacterial infection, and enables the matte glaze to have better sanitary experience.
The present application has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, but the present application is not limited to the embodiments described above, and various changes can be made within the knowledge of those skilled in the art without departing from the gist of the present application. Furthermore, the embodiments and features of the embodiments of the present application may be combined with each other without conflict.
