Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of ceramic tiles, and in particular to a ceramic tile with a radiation cooling function, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Approximately 10% of global electricity consumption is used for air conditioning systems in buildings each year, and this demand is expected to triple by 2050. Therefore, new technological innovations are urgently needed to reduce the pressure on the power grid and address the global warming problem caused by the high carbon emissions of cooling systems.

[0003] Radiative cooling materials can use their special microstructures to reflect more than 90% of solar radiation, minimizing solar radiation heating and radiating heat into the cold outer space (about 270°C) in the form of long-wave infrared light through the atmosphere's transparent window (8 to 13 micron wavelength range), thereby achieving the effect of building cooling. In addition to the construction field, this technology can also benefit solar cells, power plant condensers, high-performance textiles for personal thermal comfort, dew collection, and slowing glacier melting.

[0004] At present, the research on radiative cooling materials was initially mainly based on nanophotonic structures of multilayer inorganic films. However, the production technology of this structure is complex and costly, and its application is limited, especially in the field of construction. Therefore, in recent years, researchers have explored the use of alternative materials such as organic polymers, such as polymer-metal composite films, porous polymer coatings and foams, polymer-ceramic particle coatings, etc. However, organic polymers increase their solar absorption under complex environmental conditions (such as ultraviolet rays, heat, water, and environmental chemicals), thereby reducing their cooling efficiency and may even cause the material to be heated. In addition, metals used in polymer or inorganic radiative cooling structures (such as silver and aluminum) may be oxidized or sulfurized by chemicals in the air, thereby reducing their solar reflectivity.

[0005] With a typical service life of 30-50 years for building materials, environmental stability is a significant obstacle to the promising technology of radiative cooling. Although environmentally stable micro- or nano-scale ceramic particles such as silica, silicon carbide, and alumina have been shown to be suitable for radiative cooling, their mechanical strength is weak due to the lack of suitable binders, making them unsuitable for construction applications.

[0006] Currently, there is no relevant patent disclosing ceramic tiles with radiant cooling function; therefore, the present application provides a ceramic tile with radiant cooling function and a preparation method and application thereof. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The present application provides a ceramic tile with radiative cooling function, as well as its preparation method and application. Diatomaceous earth-loaded mesoporous alumina is prepared by a sol-gel method. The diatomaceous earth-loaded mesoporous alumina has a multi-level porous property. During the sintering process with α-alumina, it enhances the scattering effect of sunlight and effectively suppresses the problem of decreased solar reflectivity caused by structural densification during the material manufacturing process. In addition, the ceramic tile described in the present application has a porous silica-alumina skeleton formed in the glaze layer, which can selectively emit low-temperature infrared light while maintaining a high solar reflectivity.

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0009] The first object of the present application is to provide a ceramic tile with a radiant cooling function, comprising a green body, on which a glaze layer with a radiant cooling function is provided;

[0010] The glaze for forming the glaze layer having the radiant cooling function comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight:

[0011]

[0012]

[0013] Furthermore, the diatomite-loaded mesoporous alumina is prepared by loading mesoporous alumina on diatomite through a sol-gel method;

[0014] The pore size of the mesoporous alumina in the diatomaceous earth-loaded mesoporous alumina is 4-10 nm:

[0015] Furthermore, the frit comprises the following chemical components in terms of mass percentage: SiO 2+ Al2O3=85wt%, CaO+MgO=8wt%, Na2O+K2O=5wt%;

[0016] Furthermore, the aluminum oxide is α-aluminum oxide.

[0017] The second object of the present application is to provide a method for preparing a ceramic tile with radiant cooling function, comprising the following steps:

[0018] S1. Preparation of diatomite-supported mesoporous alumina

[0019] Aluminum isopropoxide is dissolved in octanol and a nonionic surfactant is added to form solution A; diatomaceous earth is dispersed to obtain solution B;

[0020] Solution B is added to solution A, and the mixture is aged, dried, and calcined to obtain diatomite-loaded mesoporous alumina;

[0021] S2. Preparation of glaze layer with radiant cooling function

[0022] Prepare materials for a glaze layer having a radiant cooling function; mix the raw materials and then ball-mill to obtain a glaze layer having a radiant cooling function;

[0023] S3. Glazing

[0024] Applying the glaze of the glaze layer with the radiant cooling function obtained in step S2 onto the blank to obtain a rough blank;

[0025] S4. Firing

[0026] The rough blank obtained in step S3 is calcined to obtain a ceramic brick with radiant cooling function.

[0027] Furthermore, in step S1, the aging time is 48-60 hours.

[0028] Furthermore, in step S1, the calcination temperature is 600°C.

[0029] Furthermore, in step S2, ball milling is performed for 10 minutes, and the mixture is passed through a 325-mesh sieve.

[0030] Furthermore, in step S4, the calcination temperature is 1100-1200°C.

[0031] The third purpose of this application is to provide the application of ceramic tiles with radiant cooling function and apply ceramic tiles to the construction field.

[0032] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0033] 1. This application uses the sol-gel method to in situ synthesize mesoporous alumina material on the surface of diatomaceous earth mineral with a multi-level pore structure, realizing a multi-level pore structure on a single material. Combined with the special electromagnetic effect of alumina, the reflectivity of the glaze layer to sunlight is improved.

[0034] 2. The ceramic tiles described in the present application have a glaze layer that forms a porous alumina structure through the controlled foaming of ultrafine silicon carbide powder at high temperature. At the same time, the glaze layer is combined with a mesoporous alumina material generated in situ on a diatomaceous earth mineral carrier, which highly imitates the complex multi-level porous microstructure of the surface of insect shells in nature, achieving efficient light scattering and near-perfect solar reflectivity.

[0035] 3. The ceramic tile described in this application has a glaze layer composed of porous alumina, which has ideal inherent electromagnetic properties suitable for passive radiative cooling applications. The effective scattering of the multi-level porous system on the glaze layer achieves the optical properties required for radiative cooling. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] The present application provides a ceramic tile with a radiant cooling function, comprising a green body, on which a glaze layer with a radiant cooling function is provided;

[0041] The glaze for forming the glaze layer having the radiant cooling function comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight:

[0042] 10-40 parts of diatomaceous earth loaded mesoporous alumina

[0043]

[0044] In one embodiment, the glaze for forming the glaze layer having the radiant cooling function comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 10 parts of diatomaceous earth-loaded mesoporous alumina,

[0045] 10 parts of aluminum oxide, 1 part of frit, 1 part of calcined zinc oxide, 1 part of barium carbonate,

[0046] 1 part dolomite, 0.01 part silicon carbide;

[0047] Alternatively, the glaze for forming the glaze layer having the radiant cooling function comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 40 parts of diatomaceous earth-loaded mesoporous alumina,

[0048] 30 parts of aluminum oxide, 30 parts of frit, 10 parts of calcined zinc oxide, 5 parts of barium carbonate,

[0049] 20 parts of dolomite, 3 parts of silicon carbide;

[0050] Alternatively, the glaze for forming the glaze layer having the radiant cooling function comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 20 parts of diatomaceous earth-loaded mesoporous alumina,

[0051] 15 parts of aluminum oxide, 20 parts of frit, 5 parts of calcined zinc oxide, 4 parts of barium carbonate,

[0052] 10 parts of dolomite, 1 part of silicon carbide;

[0053] Alternatively, the glaze for forming the glaze layer having the radiant cooling function comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 10-40 parts of diatomaceous earth loaded mesoporous alumina,

[0054] 10 parts of aluminum oxide, 2 parts of frit, 10 parts of calcined zinc oxide, 5 parts of barium carbonate,

[0055] 20 parts of dolomite, 3 parts of silicon carbide;

[0056] Alternatively, the glaze for forming the glaze layer having the radiant cooling function comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 10-40 parts of diatomaceous earth loaded mesoporous alumina,

[0057] 30 parts of aluminum oxide, 15 parts of frit, 1 part of calcined zinc oxide, 1 part of barium carbonate,

[0058] 20 parts of dolomite, 1 part of silicon carbide;

[0059] The pore size of the mesoporous alumina in the diatomite-loaded mesoporous alumina is 4-10nm. Using a sol-gel method, the mesoporous alumina is synthesized in situ on the surface of the hierarchically porous diatomite mineral. Combined with the unique electromagnetic properties of alumina, this increases the reflectivity of the glaze layer to sunlight. Its function: At high temperatures, it fuses with the alumina particles, forming a biomimetic hierarchical porous structure that enhances sunlight reflectivity.

[0060] Alumina is α-alumina. Due to its unique two-dimensional structure, Al2O3 powder has excellent light reflection ability. α-alumina is also resistant to high temperatures and has high hardness, which improves the whiteness and wear resistance of the glaze.

[0061] The frit, expressed in percentage by mass, comprises the following chemical compositions:

[0062] SiO₂ + Al₂O₃ = 85wt%, CaO + MgO = 8wt%, Na₂O + K₂O = 5wt%. The specific raw material composition can be selected from existing raw materials, as long as it meets the chemical composition requirements. Function: Lowers firing temperature, expands firing range, improves glaze surface quality, reduces glaze shrinkage, and ensures excellent glaze performance.

[0063] Calcined zinc oxide has a fluxing effect, which can reduce the expansion coefficient of the glaze and improve the thermal stability of the product. At the same time, it can increase the gloss and whiteness of the glaze and improve the elasticity of the glaze.

[0064] Barium carbonate can reduce pores and bubbles, improve translucency, expand the sintering range, and increase the thermal expansion coefficient.

[0065] Dolomite, when preparing glaze, introduces CaO and MgO simultaneously, making the glaze transparent instead of opaque. It also promotes the transformation of quartz and the formation of mullite, thus expanding the firing range.

[0066] Silicon carbide, through its controlled foaming effect at high temperatures, helps the glaze layer form a porous alumina structure after sintering.

[0067] On the other hand, the method for preparing the ceramic tile is characterized by comprising the following steps:

[0068] S1. Preparation of diatomite-supported mesoporous alumina

[0069] Aluminum isopropoxide is dissolved in octanol and a nonionic surfactant is added to form solution A; diatomaceous earth is dispersed in water 6-8 times the weight of the diatomaceous earth, and then acetonitrile 1 times the weight of the diatomaceous earth is added and dispersed to obtain solution B;

[0070] Solution B is added to solution A, aged for 48-60 hours, dried, and calcined at 600° C. to obtain diatomaceous earth-supported mesoporous alumina.

[0071] The weight ratio of aluminum isopropoxide, nonionic surfactant and diatomaceous earth is 1:1:3-4.

[0072] S2. Preparation of glaze layer with radiant cooling function

[0073] Prepare materials for a glaze layer having a radiant cooling function; mix the raw materials, ball-mill for 10 minutes, and pass the mixture through a 325-mesh sieve to obtain a glaze layer having a radiant cooling function;

[0076] S4. Firing

[0126] Because the actual outdoor cooling performance of radiative cooling ceramic tiles is significantly affected by the region and environment, and spectral characteristics are measured based on standardized laboratory conditions, spectral radiation characteristics are the most important parameters for measuring the optical performance of radiative cooling materials. The two most important characteristics are the spectral reflectance in the solar band (0.3-2.5μm) and the emissivity in the "atmospheric window" infrared band (8-13μm).

[0127] The optical properties of the ceramic tiles of Examples 1-4 and Comparative Example 1 were analyzed by UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer and Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. The results are shown in Table 1 below:

[0128] The spectral reflectance of ceramic tiles in the solar band (0.3-2.5μm) and the infrared band (2.5-15.0μm) was measured using a UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer and a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer combined with an integrating sphere. The average reflectance of the ceramic tiles in the solar band and the average emissivity in the "atmospheric window" band were calculated based on the measured spectral reflectance and combined with Mie theory.

[0129] Table 1

[0130]

[0131] The test results in Table 1 show that the radiative cooling ceramic tiles prepared in Examples 1-4 have a high spectral reflectivity in the solar band (0.3-2.5 μm) and an emissivity in the "atmospheric window" infrared band (8-13 μm), and have a daytime radiative cooling function.
