One, porcelain bowls are made from what material?
Porcelain bowls are artificial industrial products made from inorganic non-metallic minerals such as clay. They are produced by mixing, shaping, and firing clay or clay-containing mixtures.
2. What are the materials used for ceramic bowls?
1、Magnesium ceramic bowls
Magnesium-based porcelain is primarily made from magnesium-rich silicate minerals, such as talc, used as the main raw material for the porcelain, and is then fired at a high temperature of 1380°C. As a result, magnesium-based porcelain has outstanding characteristics such as high whiteness, high strength, and high thermal stability, appearing as pure white and glossy, making it the ideal choice for tableware in high-end hotels.
2、Magnesium-enhanced ceramic bowls
Magnesium-enhanced porcelain bowls are manufactured using magnesium stone powder and high-calcium feldspar powder as the main raw materials, and are fired at temperatures around 1340°C. They exhibit exceptional strength, low brittleness, high whiteness, smooth glaze, and a service life 3-5 times longer than ordinary ceramics.
Magnesium-enhanced porcelain bowls offer a refined and elegant appearance, with a smooth and gentle glaze. They possess excellent properties such as high temperature resistance, cold temperature resistance, high temperature resistance, and scratch resistance, and are free from lead and other chemical substances, making them environmentally friendly and pollution-free tableware. They are the preferred ceramic tableware products for modern hotels, restaurants, and disinfection tableware companies, and are highly praised by users.
3、Reinforced ceramic bowls
Reinforced porcelain bowls are made from high-quality porcelain clay combined with aluminum and magnesium, and then fired at temperatures around 1300 degrees Celsius. The glaze of reinforced porcelain bowls is milky white and has a fine texture, but the color and glaze are darker than magnesium-enhanced porcelain, which makes it less popular among consumers and less common in the market.
4、Ceramic bowls
The porcelain bowls are made from high-purity clay and glaze, combined with seashell powder, and then fired at over 1200 degrees Celsius. After the first firing, the bowls are hand-painted and glazed again, followed by a second firing. These porcelain bowls are non-toxic, lead-free, and durable, with a high resistance to breakage. The slightly bluish-white glaze makes them suitable for mid-range to low-end ceramic tableware users.
5、Glazed Ceramic Bowls
Colored glaze porcelain bowls are painted with patterns directly onto the ceramic blank before firing, and then fired once at high temperature. These belong to underglaze color ceramics, and the patterns on the porcelain are hand-painted, possessing artistic value.
