The question will bother you that the ceramic tile you just bought came up with a problem of ceramic tile chromatism.Today this article will illustrate how the ceramic tile chromatism forms and what we should do to avoid the phenomenon.
What causes ceramic tile chromatism?
Ceramic tile chromatism is to point to the difference that making ceramic tile products as a result of manufacturing technology differing in color and decorative pattern, which also means one piece tile differ from the other one in color.
There are two main reasons why ceramic tiles have chromatism are manufacturing factories and the way to tile the floor. As to manufacturing factories, the current ceramic raw materials diversification can be widely seen, the mining technology has a lot of imperfectness and the different standard of raw materials leave something to be desired. Ceramic tile contains a large number of calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium elements and other minerals raw materials, which form ceramic tile with hardness, durability, frozen-resistance, wear-resistance, and anti-corrosion ...
... through a specific sintering process under a reasonable burned temperature. However, these materials will produce slightly different colors under the different temperatures in all these processes. Ceramic Factory is now relying on manual work to put those tiles into groups according to color of the tiles (color number), as people easily get tired of eyes and subject to a number of extra factors (such as light, mental state, etc.), factory workers often make inaccurate color classification. In another way, factory mixed colors and put the different colors of the tiles together when tiles are made their grade. For the way to tile the floor, workers have not seen the color number and batch on the box and fix the tile of the different colors of the tiles together. It is likely that time span of the tiling has been too long and tiles have not been made completely dry after tiling.
How to avoid ceramic tile chromatism for ceramic manufacturers?
As floor and wall tiles’ raw material quality can't keep constant, and the parameters of the production process change inevitably (such as boiler temperature, etc.), so only the manufacturers can do is to control the process. Now there is a kind of on-line automatic color separation system of floor and wall tile can replace manual work. It is believable for us to solve the above-mentioned problem.
For consumers to avoid ceramic tile chromatism: even if the same type of ceramic tile would produce little mistakes in color. So when consumers buy ceramic tile, it is recommended that consumers can one-time buy a little more ceramic tile for reservation and check carefully on the same type of product packing to inspect whether they are from the same batch number and color number of products. Put the Ceramic Tile in slightly different color in inconspicuous corners. Make sure to check the original batch number and color number according to the same type and color ceramic tile in any delivery or replenishment procedure.
