Titanium dioxide for Ceramics
What's special about titanium dioxide used in ceramics?
Titanium dioxide for ceramics is a key functional raw material with unique functions that can significantly alter the performance and aesthetic value of ceramic products. TiO₂ can enable ceramics to achieve a high whiteness and bright color, and perfectly cover the color of the base body. Meanwhile, during the cooling process after the glaze melts, TiO₂ can act as a heterogeneous nucleation center, inducing other components in the glaze (such as titanium silicate, titanium etc.) to precipitate microcrystals with it as the core. Form a soft, velvety luster. Of course, it is also a photocatalyst and has an excellent self-cleaning function. At high temperatures, anatase type will irreversibly transform into more stable rutile type titanium dioxide, creating a special glaze effect.
The Value of KOSNANO's titanium dioxide for ceramics ？
KOSNANO’s titanium dioxide for ceramics is at the nanometer level, featuring small particle size, large specific surface area, high photocatalytic activity, and stable photochemical properties. Its crystal form is anatase. Under the irradiation of light less than 400nm, it has photocatalytic and self-cleaning properties. It can be used in the field of self-cleaning ceramics. During the usage process, first add water to nano-titanium dioxide to make a slurry, apply it to the surface of ceramic tiles, and after high-temperature firing, a 1cm thick nano-titanium dioxide film product with self-cleaning performance is obtained. Our products bond very firmly with the ceramic surface, are wear-resistant and not easy to fall off, endowing ceramics with the performance of degrading organic pollutants.
Specifications Available
Titanium dioxide for ceramics is a strategic material that combines the functions of “aesthetic endower”, “structural inducer” and “functional enabler”. Whether you are pursuing whiteness, creating special glaze effects, or achieving self-cleaning functions, KOSNANO can provide you with the right type and specification of titanium dioxide to perfectly match your production goals!
