Fully glazed tiles are different from ordinary polished tiles. The surface glaze is a special crystal wear-resistant glaze. After high temperature sintering, the molecules are completely sealed and there are almost no gaps. Can keep bright for a long time, hard and wear-resistant, make the tiles brighter, and make the house brighter, brighter and more magnificent when decorating.

Advantages and disadvantages of fully glazed tiles 1. Full glazed tile application scope living room, bedroom, study; Or the lobby floor, wall, column, elevator room and aisle in the hotel; Then go to the dry hanging of glazed tiles such as the wall of Grade A office building, the image wall of reception desk and the floor of elevator lobby.

2. Specifications of glazed tiles Generally, the dimensions and specifications of glazed tiles are: 250×300mm, 300×300mm, 300×400mm, 300×450mm, 300×500mm, 300×600mm, 400×400mm, 500×500mm and 600×.

3. Full glazed tile technology. Full-throw glaze is an underglaze color, and its body technology is similar to that of ordinary glazed floor tiles. The main difference is that the bottom glaze is applied before printing, and then the transparent top glaze is applied. After firing, part of the whole top glaze is thrown away, and part of the top glaze layer, printing layer and bottom glaze are kept.

4. Advantages of fully glazed tiles Advantages of fully glazed tiles: richer colors, bright colors, diverse colors and natural textures. Long service life. All-glazed tiles have a thick transparent glaze and are not easy to wear, and their service life is three times that of ordinary micro-powder bricks.

5. Disadvantages of glazed tiles: Domestic glazed tiles are not ideal because the technical equipment is not up to standard. Now, after years of development, although the design of glazed tile is much better than before, its own shortcomings still exist, such as weak anti-pollution ability, thin surface material of glazed tile, easy to scratch and deform, all of which are due to the production of glazed tile.

What's the difference between full glaze and polished tiles? Color difference of full glaze: the color of full glaze is completely unrestricted, and red, black, yellow, blue, blue and purple are completely fine; Grain difference: full glazing can achieve needle-thread fine lines; The difference between bricks: there is only a thin color layer on the surface of bricks; Size difference: 300 * 300 small floor tiles are generally glazed tiles; Usage difference: floor, wall, table, cylinder, etc. They are all very comfortable.

Color difference of polished tiles: the color of polished tiles is relatively simple, and the difference between colors will not be too strong; Texture difference: the texture of polished tiles should not be very small; Brick blank difference: polishing brick is to infiltrate color into brick body; Size difference: polished tiles are generally 600 and 800 large floor tiles; Use difference: except the bathroom and kitchen, most indoor spaces can be used.

Hardness of fully polished glaze blank: high temperature firing, low hardness; Water absorption: less than 0.5%; Uses: hall, lobby, bedroom, study, etc.

Hardness of polished brick blank: ultra-high temperature treatment, extremely high hardness; Water absorption: less than 0.5%; Usage: Vitrified brick is suitable for living room, bedroom, walkway, etc.

Full glazing process: full glazing is that the base blank and the top glaze layer are fired twice, and the base blank is calcined at a high temperature of 1250 degrees; Usage: It is not only suitable for high-end places, but also acceptable for ordinary home living space, with low maintenance cost. Wear-resistant and antifouling: the glaze layer of glazed tile is more wear-resistant and antifouling than microcrystalline stone.

Polishing brick technology: the microcrystalline glaze layer belongs to low-temperature glaze, only 1 100 degrees, and the composite microcrystalline glass is added with a layer of glass powder on its surface, which is costly; Usage: most of them are only used for climbing walls, which is not easy to lay the floor and has high daily maintenance cost; Wear resistance and antifouling: the glaze layer on the surface of microcrystalline stone is thick and the wear resistance is poor;

All-glazed tiles should be a magnificent decorative effect, and the gorgeous and realistic patterns and delicate and bright texture give all-glazed tiles a luxurious and elegant style. So how to choose full glazed tiles?

1. Careful identification of full-throw glaze is characterized by smoothness and transparency, single gloss value as high as 104 degree, fine and smooth glaze surface, heavy or gorgeous color and exquisite pattern. When identifying, you should carefully look at the overall light perception and touch the texture with your hands.

2. For glazed tiles with heavy quality, it is necessary to measure the water absorption rate, listen to the tapping sound, scrape the surface of the tile, and carefully look at the color difference. The method is basically the same. It is unacceptable to think that the price is cheap. While shopping around, we should pay more attention to the quality of full glazed products.

3. Choose the appropriate style. Full glazed tiles combine the smoothness and brightness of polished tiles with the colorful colors of antique tiles, and have rich styles, such as Western European style, classical elegant style, original characteristic style, classic fashion style and so on. Color and pattern are the most important factors in the decoration design of full glazed tiles.

4. Purchase quantity. For example, if your paving area is 45 square meters, you need 45 square meters ÷ single piece area = number of pieces used. We suggest that you buy more pieces and buy them in a whole box to prevent construction and handling losses.

Choosing full glazed tiles as floor tiles or wall tiles will also involve some specific details in the actual construction process. Good tiles must be built by professionals. What aspects should be paid attention to in the construction of full glazed tiles?

1. The protective film attached to the surface has high gloss and is easy to cause various scratches. Therefore, the protective film is usually pasted on the surface of glazed tiles when they leave the factory, and it should be torn off after construction.

2. Waterproof treatment Before construction, all sides of glazed tiles should be coated with waterproof coating with coordinated colors to prevent sewage from infiltrating into the gaps between bricks and make the brick surface reflect dirt color marks.

3. It is suggested to leave 1-3 mm expansion joint to avoid edge collapse, bulging, hollowing and falling off due to thermal expansion and contraction after paving.

Full glazed maintenance Many people spend a lot of money to buy full glazed tiles, but when they look at their tiles getting dirty, they can't see their original luster.

4. Use alkaline cleaning agent or organic solvent (and pentanone and triethylene) for paint, oily marker pen and surface antifouling wax layer to remove paint and oil stain remover;

5. Usage of rubber hammer printing for decontamination: soak in 20%-40% sodium hydroxide solution for 24 hours and then wipe with cloth, then soak in 30%-50% hydrochloric acid solution for 30 minutes and then wipe with cloth;
