[0002] Ceramic glaze, as a thin glassy layer covering the surface of ceramic products, plays a vital role in the performance and appearance of ceramics. Traditional ceramic glazes have certain limitations in terms of hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and bonding strength with the body. With the continuous improvement of the performance requirements of ceramic products in modern industry and life, the development of a new type of ceramic glaze that can significantly improve the comprehensive performance of ceramics is of great practical significance. For example, in the field of architectural ceramics, the glaze surface is required to have higher hardness and wear resistance to resist friction and scratches in daily use; in the field of sanitary ceramics, the glaze surface is required to have better corrosion resistance and antibacterial properties to ensure long-term hygiene and safety. However, the existing ceramic glaze formula and preparation process are difficult to meet these diverse high-performance requirements at the same time.

[0003] Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a formula and preparation process of a ceramic glaze to solve the problems raised in the above background technology. Summary of the Invention

[0006] Step 2: Gradient sintering process ① Green pretreatment: nitrogen purge technology is used, the flow rate is 12m / s, and the humidity is ≤5%RH; ② Glazing: Glazing method, glaze amount 80g / piece (300×600mm specification); ③ Three-stage sintering: Initial firing stage: room temperature → 850℃, heating rate 5℃ / min, holding temperature for 30min; Crystallization stage: 850→1150℃, heating rate 3℃ / min, introduction of CO2 / N2 mixed gas with a volume ratio of 1:4; Densification stage: 1150→1280℃, heating rate 2℃ / min, holding for 15min and then cooling to 600℃; Preferably, the rapid cooling stage adopts nitrogen curtain cooling technology, and the cooling rate is ≥50°C / s.

[0007] Preferably, the CO2 partial pressure in the CO2 / N2 mixed gas is 0.02-0.05 MPa, and the gas flow rate is 8-12 L / min.

[0008] The technical effects and advantages of the present invention are as follows: Boron carbide-silicon nitride composite powder forms a three-dimensional grid structure (Vickers hardness ≥ 1800HV), and combined with potassium feldspar modification technology, wear resistance is improved by 40%; Silver-loaded zeolite achieves sustained release of Ag⁺, with an antibacterial rate of >99.9% The gradient sintering process creates a gradient density structure in the glaze layer, with a surface porosity of <0.5% and a bottom porosity of 3-5%. CO2 / N2 atmosphere control avoids oxidation defects in the copper red glaze, and a color uniformity of ΔE ≤ 0.8. The firing temperature is lowered by 150℃, which reduces energy consumption.
