What is the Role of organic binders to make ceramic Tiles?
Binders are an essential component in the production of ceramic tiles. These are the substances that enhance the mechanical strength of the ceramic tiles and allow the same to go through tough and high-temperature exposures. The studies and researches by ‘Research gate’ also infer the positive impact of the organic binders on the color of the ceramic tile without compromising its physical properties. Though several kinds of binders may be used in ceramics such as natural binders like cellulose and clay or synthetic binders such as polyacrylates and polyvinyl alcohol. Here, you get to know more about use of organic binders in tile manufacturing! Organic binder: Features and Uses Organic binders are made using polymers ensuring the presence of the polar groups. This component is water-soluble and augments the contact between liquid and solid phases. In the case of short-chain binders, after it is adsorbed on the surface of particles, at the time of water elimination or drying f...
