| The types of ceramics can be divided into several categories |
Types of ceramics and their application need to know the quality with ceramic motifs and structures that affect the price used for the floor
Ceramics are now increasingly popular for flooring materials. When compared with ceramic marble has several advantages because the type is very much let alone shades and colors are increasingly diverse so often confuse the wearer including a choice that is suitable for the needs.
However, it can actually be distinguished primarily in the structure of its manufacture. First is ceramics that are given a layer or glazing and ceramics that are not laminated or unglazed.
The most common market is glazed ceramics. This ceramic coating is made for very suitable motifs and textures applied to the floor and wall. As for ceramics that have no coating or unglazed are used directly for the production process. Generally these unglazed ceramics have a stronger quality and thickness.
For the first water absorption is the ability to up to seven percent in absorbing water. Ceramic is suitable for use in the room and less suitable for outside because it can not stand the weather changes. There are also ceramics that absorb water between three to seven percent is almost no different from the first.
There is another ceramic that absorbs water between half to three percent and can still be used outside the room and can not stand the sun directly. And the last water absorption is less than half a percent and can be used outside the room and can be exposed to sunlight.
While in its first production process is a kind of bitcottura burned twice. Rooting is performed on the lower and second surfaces of the glazing layer. Ceramic like this is suitable for wall not for floor.
For the second ceramic is the type of Monocottura which is only once burned. Its quality is better and durable and suitable for floor.
And again the type of ceramics that can be distinguished over the surface. There is a slick and shiny and is usually used for walls and floors that always dry conditions. Moreover, the surface is not shiny and suitable for minimalist home. While ceramics that have a rough texture is usually used for moist and wet areas such as bathroom and kitchen and also for the open. While the ceramic surface of the elbow that has a perfect appearance and the price is also more expensive.
There are more disposable ceramics can be distinguished by the color of the body or the bottom surface there is white and red. Both have no quality differences and will not be visible when installed. The color that occurs due to differences due to clay used as raw materials that have different colors.
Size differences are also common, affecting quality and price. If the angle is really elbows and has no size difference between each other not less than one millimeter and the color is the same is the best quality of ceramics.
While the quality of less good ceramics such as size that is not exactly the same and also less the same color is often also found in the market with a cheaper price.
