Tile Classification - Buy Tiles Required Course

Tiles, as an indispensable and important part of home-improvement building materials, have attracted more and more attention.
Ceramic tile is an earthenware product made from a mixture of different materials. After being cut, it is dehydrated and air-dried, and then burned at high temperature to form brick plates of different shapes. The tiles can be made without any modification, retaining a rough surface, or glazing again, resulting in a smooth surface tile. General glazed tiles have the advantages of waterproof, moisture-proof, wear-resistance, and easy cleaning. They are most suitable for wet or space that needs to maintain sanitation, such as kitchens and bathrooms.

What are the tile classification? In general, the following classification can be made according to different classification methods:

According to their material classification:

The first is firing with clay, because of the higher water absorption rate and the glaze must be burned. This type of tile has a low strength and its main feature is the red color on the back, which is rarely used nowadays. The second is firing with porcelain clay. In order to pursue decorative effects, it also burns glaze. This type of tile has a compact structure, high strength, low water absorption, and strong stain resistance. Its main feature is that the back color is gray and the price is higher than that of clay. Made of slightly higher tiles. Glazed tiles made of porcelain clay are widely used in home decoration, and 80% of buyers use this tile as a floor decoration material. Note: The comparison of water absorption and strength mentioned above is relative. At present, there are also some ceramic glazed tiles with higher water absorption and strength than porcelain glazed tiles. The third is stone tiles, usually made of natural stone, mostly made of natural marble and natural granite. The natural marble texture is compact but not hard enough to be easily processed, sculpted, polished and polished. After polishing, the marble is smooth, smooth, smooth and highly decorative. Marble has a low water absorption rate and high durability and can be used for 40-100 years. The fourth is plastic tiles. The floor bricks of this floor tile are leaky and fiercely distributed in the form of a net, and supports are distributed under the brick body. The splicing method adopts a buckle type. Can effectively waterproof, non-slip, and stitching convenient, solid and reliable.

According to the functional classification, it can be divided into floor tiles, wall tiles and waistline bricks.

Floor tiles: As the name suggests, bricks are laid on the ground. According to suits, they are divided into imitation Spanish tiles, vitrified polished tiles, glazed tiles, non-slip tiles and osmotic polished tiles.
Wall: According to the color can be divided into vitrified wall tiles, printed wall tiles.
Waist line bricks: mostly printed tiles. In order to match the specifications of the wall tiles, the waistline bricks are generally set at 60mm x 200mm.

Divided by technology: glazed tiles, whole body tiles, polished tiles, vitrified tiles, ceramic tiles and seepage tiles.

Glazed tile: refers to a brick that has a glazed layer on the surface of the brick. This kind of brick is divided into two types: one is fired with clay, and the other is fired with porcelain clay. According to different luster, glazed tiles can be divided into smooth and matt glazed tiles. Smooth glazed tiles, suitable for creating "clean" effects; matt glazed tiles, suitable for creating "fashion" effects. Glazed tile is the most common type of brick in decoration, with rich color patterns and strong anti-fouling ability.
Whole brick: This is a non-glazed porcelain tile, and the front and back of the same material and color, so named, also known as homogeneous brick. Good slip resistance and abrasion resistance. Generally speaking, "non-slip tiles" are mostly full-body bricks. There are varieties such as osmotic bricks, but relatively speaking, the color is not better than glazed tiles. As interior design tends to be colored, the bricks are becoming more and more fashionable, and are widely used on the grounds of renovation projects such as halls, aisles, and outdoor walkways. The common specifications of all bricks are 300mm×300mm, 400mm×400mm, 500mm×500mm, 600mm×600mm, and 800mm×800mm. Due to the moderate price of this brick, it is popular with consumers.
Polished bricks: All bricks are polished after polishing and they are very hard and wear-resistant. But the disadvantage is that it is easily dirty.
Vitrified tiles: The hardest of all tiles. Vitrified tiles are actually full tiles. The surface is smooth but does not need polishing, so there is no problem of polishing the pores. It is an enhanced polished tile that is fired at high temperatures. The texture is harder and more resistant than the polished tiles, and sometimes the polished tiles are scratched and the vitrified tiles are still safe. The defect is monotonous color. No doubt, its price is also higher. The tiles are mainly floor tiles, and the common specifications are 400mm x 400mm, 500mm x 500mm, 600mm x 600mm, 800mm x 800mm, 900mm x 900mm, and 1000mm x 1000mm.
Ceramic tile: also known as mosaic, mosaic volume is the smallest of all kinds of tiles, commonly known as block bricks. It was originally a building decoration art material in ancient Europe. In general, it is only used for paving the kitchens, bathrooms, or public areas of the home to swim in the lobby. Because of its small size and paved floors, it is not easy to slip. It is particularly suitable for wet conditions. In fact, mosaics are quite rich in the selection of materials and colors. There is great potential in the creation of aesthetics. As long as they are properly designed, they can produce good visual effects. Features are many specifications, thin and small, hard texture, acid and alkali-resistant, wear-resistant, watertight, anti-pressure, not broken, colorful, widely used.
Seepage Tile: This kind of brick applies the color salt such as iron, chromium, diamond, vanadium and manganese to the surface through the screen printing machine or spray gun, etc. The bottom blank adopts light-colored, white or ultra-white in order to highlight the infiltration of flowers. Color, with a good aesthetic effect. The new type of osmotic tile in the market breaks through the original principle of ion osmosis. According to this theory, the color of the osmotic tile mainly depends on the coloration of the osmotic ion. It is known that the color of the ionic species is limited and the color is monotonous. , Dim; The recent development of a new type of osmotic glaze is the use of the chemical reaction between the osmosis ions or osmosis ions and the raw material, can produce splendid special effects. This makes the process of seepage bricks even better.
