Ceramic Tile industry

The use of bone ash (natural hydroxyapatite) as a rich source of calcium phosphate in the porcelain body of the container changes the final characteristics of the porcelain body of the container and increases its whiteness, transparency and mechanical strength, in addition to the aforementioned properties.

Today, zinc oxide is one of the main components in glaze production. Knowing the effect of oxides, especially zinc oxide, in the formulation and preparation of quality glaze is of particular importance.

Effect of oxide on glaze:

  • Increasing the elastic properties of glaze
  • Lowering the melting point of the glaze
  • Increasing the physical quality of glaze
  • Increasing the chemical quality of glaze
  • Better distribution of glaze on the substrate
  • Increase the shine and chemical resistance of the glaze
  • Changing the optical properties of the glaze
  • Creating antibacterial properties

Materials used in the ceramic industry:

  • Nano hydroxyapatite
  • zinc Nano oxide
  • Titanium dioxide
