Nepheline is widely used in the production of ceramics, glass, paints and coatings, and high-quality nepheline products are also an important material for the production of chips. The application of nepheline in ceramic glazes has multiple functions, and it injects infinite charm into the performance and appearance of ceramic products.
1.Increases viscosity and viscosity.
As an important part of ceramic glaze, nepheline can increase the viscosity and viscosity of the glaze. This makes the glaze more stable in the preparation process, less prone to flowing, cracking and other phenomena, and also helps the glaze to be evenly distributed on the surface of the ceramic to form a smooth and uniform glaze layer.
2.Improves the fluidity of ceramic glazes
The addition of nepheline improves the fluidity of the glaze and makes it easier to work with the glaze during preparation. The glaze with good fluidity is easier to form a uniform coating on the surface of the ceramic, which is conducive to improving the quality and appearance of ceramic products.
3.Adjust the drying and shrinkage properties of the glaze
The composition and content of nepheline can affect the drying and shrinkage properties of the glaze. By adjusting the composition and content of nepheline, the drying time and shrinkage of the glaze can be controlled to meet specific preparation requirements.
4.Improve the hardness and wear resistance of the glaze
There are certain components in nepheline that can improve the hardness and abrasion resistance of the glaze. This makes the ceramic products more durable during use and less prone to wear and scratch, thus extending the service life.
5.Adjust the color and transparency
The color and transparency of nepheline can affect the color and transparency of ceramic products. By adjusting the composition and content of nepheline, the color and transparency of the glaze can be controlled to meet specific decorative requirements.
The application of nepheline in ceramic glazes is to adjust and optimize the physical properties of the glaze to meet specific preparation and decoration requirements. Through the rational selection and use of nepheline, high-quality ceramic products can be obtained, and the competitiveness and market value of the product can be improved.
