Application of Boric Acid in Ceramic Industry

In our life, ceramic products are a very important part of our lives. You can see this kind of products everywhere. You may ask, what is the relationship between ceramics and boric acid! The following boric acid manufacturers will carefully analyze the relationship between the two, hoping to help everyone.

In the production process, the enamel and ceramic industries are used to produce glaze, which can reduce the thermal expansion of the glaze and reduce the curing temperature of the glaze, thereby preventing cracking and deglazing, and improving the gloss and fastness of the product. For ceramics and enamel glazes, boron oxide is a good flux and network former. It can form glass (at low temperature), improve glaze adaptability, reduce viscosity and surface tension, increase refractive index, improve mechanical strength, durability and wear resistance.

Because it is an important component of lead-free glaze. The high-boron frit is fast in curing, forming a smooth glaze quickly, which is conducive to coloring. Boric acid manufacturers tell you that in the frit of quickly fired glazed tiles, B2O3 is introduced with boric acid to ensure the requirement of low sodium content, so as to better ensure the quality of the product.
