Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ceramic production, and in particular relates to a production process for using a lost wax method to replace a paintbrush on a ceramic surface. Background Art

[0002] Ceramics is a general term for pottery and porcelain. It is also a kind of arts and crafts in my country with a long history and profound cultural heritage. Ceramics are various products made of natural clay and various natural minerals as the main raw materials, which are made through crushing, mixing, molding and calcining. It includes both traditional pottery and porcelain, as well as new materials such as modern special ceramics. Classification by use: daily ceramics: such as tableware, tea sets, etc., artistic ceramics: such as vases, sculptures, etc., industrial ceramics: ceramic products used in various industries; classification by material: traditional ceramics: using natural silicates such as clay as the main raw materials, modern ceramics: also known as new ceramics, fine ceramics or special ceramics, commonly made of non-silicate chemical raw materials or artificial synthetic raw materials. With the continuous advancement of science and technology and the changes in people's aesthetic concepts, ceramics are more and more widely used in modern society. In addition to traditional daily ceramics and artistic ceramics, modern ceramics are also widely used in electronics, chemical industry, machinery, aerospace and other fields. At the same time, with the improvement of environmental awareness and the increase in demand for sustainable development, the application of ceramic materials in green buildings, environmentally friendly materials and other aspects has also received increasing attention.

[0003] Ceramic products are extremely durable. They can withstand harsh environments such as high and low temperatures, acids and alkalis, and are not easily deformed, cracked or corroded. This makes ceramics an ideal material for making daily necessities such as tableware, tea sets, and cooking utensils. The ceramic surface is smooth and easy to clean, and it is not easy to breed bacteria, so it is very suitable for making products that come into contact with food. In addition, ceramic materials do not contain harmful substances such as heavy metals, which are harmless to human health and meet the modern people's pursuit of food safety. Ceramics have rich colors and textures, and can present a variety of beautiful patterns and textures through different glazes and firing processes. This makes ceramic products not only practical, but also a work of art that can beautify the home environment and improve the quality of life. Ceramics are an important part of Chinese civilization, with a long history and profound Cultural heritage, each ceramic work carries specific historical information and cultural connotations, through which we can understand the information about production, life, art and other aspects of ancient society. Therefore, ceramics are not only a material cultural heritage, but also a spiritual cultural heritage; compared with other materials, ceramics have less impact on the environment during production and use. First of all, ceramic materials are widely available, mainly including natural minerals such as clay and quartz. These resources are relatively abundant and renewable. Secondly, although the production process of ceramic products requires energy consumption, its energy consumption and waste emissions are relatively less than the production process of some plastics, metals and other materials. Finally, ceramic products can maintain stability and durability for a long time during use, reducing the waste of resources and environmental pollution caused by frequent product replacement.

[0004] In a Chinese patent with publication number CN1301233C, a process for making a composite decorative glaze for ceramic bottles is mentioned, which includes the following process steps: (1) Making the boundary line of different glazes of the ceramic bottle: using the glaze slurry with the addition of a water-repellent agent as a marking agent, and using a marking machine to mark the set position on the surface of the ceramic bottle body; (2) Drying the marked ceramic bottle body at room temperature to 200°C; (3) Dipping the glaze from both ends of the ceramic bottle to the middle or from one end to the other end in sequence; (4) After the glaze is fired, a ceramic bottle with a composite decorative glaze is obtained. This process can obtain a composite decorative glaze with a natural connection and neat interface on the ceramic bottle. It improves the decorativeness and grade of the product;

[0005] Compared with the above documents, in the above documents, although a composite decorative glaze with natural connection and neat interface can be obtained on the ceramic bottle, which improves the decorativeness and grade of the product, the above documents cannot carve the shape of the mountain on the outer wall of the ceramic body, and cannot make the multiple symbolic meanings of the mountain spread through the form of ceramics to achieve the role of promoting the exchange and inheritance of civilization and culture. For this reason, a lost wax method is proposed for the production process of ceramic surface instead of brushes.

[0006] The present invention aims to create a ceramic work with the appearance of "mountain image" through the lost wax process combined with the design concept of ceramic art. The present invention aims to explore the multiple symbolic meanings of mountains, such as protection, compassion, seclusion, wisdom, etc., and to show the charm and power of mountains through the traditional medium of ceramics, so as to spread the multiple symbolic meanings of mountains through ceramics, so as to achieve the role of promoting the exchange and inheritance of civilization and culture. Summary of the invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a lost wax method for the production process of ceramic surfaces instead of paintbrushes, so as to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0008] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0009] A lost wax method is used to make ceramic surfaces instead of paintbrushes, comprising:

[0010] Step 1: Choose clay and shape it according to the requirements of the work;

[0011] Step 2: Choose the right candle material and prepare auxiliary tools;

[0012] Step 3: making a ceramic body;

[0013] Step 4: Light the candle, then hold the candle and let it pour so that the wax drips onto the ceramic blank to quickly draw different shapes;

[0014] Step 5: attaching the wax liquid to the surface of the ceramic body;

[0015] Step 6: After the wax liquid is completely dry, glaze the outer wall;

[0016] Step 7: Glaze the ceramic body with the wax pattern. After glazing, let it stand for 1-2 days to dry before putting it into the kiln for firing.

[0017] Preferably, the glazing method includes swinging glaze, pouring glaze and dipping glaze, and the preparation work before glazing includes cleaning the body, drying the body, selecting glaze and adjusting glaze;

[0018] As can be seen from the above, ceramic green body production: according to the design drawings, ceramic green body is produced by using a wheel throwing machine or hand kneading to ensure regular shape and smooth surface;

[0019] The method of preparing glaze is to mix glaze ash with water to prepare glaze juice of appropriate proportion. This process requires precise control of the proportion of raw materials and the amount of water to ensure the quality of the glaze;

[0020] It should be noted that: when configuring the glaze, pay attention to the fineness and uniformity of the glaze to avoid problems such as unevenness or bubbles during the glazing process;

[0021] It should be noted that the specific matters of the glazing method are as follows:

[0022] Pouring glaze: Use a large container to fill the glaze and pour it directly onto the ceramic body. This method is suitable for large or simple-shaped ceramic works.

[0023] Glaze dipping: Dip the ceramic body into the glaze slurry for a while, and use the water absorption of the body to make the glaze slurry adhere to the surface. The thickness of the glaze layer can be achieved by controlling the water absorption of the body, the concentration of the glaze slurry and the dipping time. This method is suitable for ceramic works of various sizes and shapes.

[0024] Glaze swinging: Pour the glaze slurry into the interior of the ceramic body (such as cups, bowls, etc.), and then shake it slowly by hand to make the glaze slurry evenly distributed on the inner surface of the body. This method is suitable for ceramic works with internal space;

[0025] It should be noted that when applying glaze, the staff should pay attention to the following matters:

[0026] Choose the appropriate concentration of glaze to ensure the glazing effect. A too thick glaze may cause the glaze layer to be too thick, cracked or sag; a too thin glaze may cause the glaze layer to be too thin, uneven or unable to adhere to the body.

[0027] Glazing environment: Keep the glazing environment clean and at suitable temperature and humidity conditions to avoid problems caused by glaze contamination or too fast drying;

[0028] Glazing skills: Choose appropriate glazing methods and tools according to the shape and size of the ceramic body, and master glazing skills to ensure the uniformity and beauty of the glaze layer;

[0029] Firing system: After glazing, firing treatment is required to ensure that the glaze layer is closely combined with the ceramic body and present the desired effect. The choice of firing system (including temperature, time and atmosphere, etc.) also has a great influence on the defects of the glaze surface, so it needs to be carefully controlled;

[0030] Glazing the outer wall of the ceramic after firing has the following benefits:

[0031] Glaze can give the ceramic surface rich colors and luster, making ceramic products more beautiful and attractive. Through the change of glaze color and the decoration process of glaze surface, various ceramic works with artistic value can be produced; the glaze layer can cover the bad color and defects on the surface of the ceramic body, making the surface of the final product smooth and bright, and improving the overall quality;

[0032] The glaze layer has good impermeability, which can reduce the water absorption of ceramic products, thereby preventing water from penetrating into the interior of the ceramics and protecting their structure and performance; the glaze layer makes the ceramic surface not easy to be contaminated and easy to clean, which helps to keep the ceramic products clean and hygienic; for decorative techniques such as underglaze color, the glaze layer can protect the patterns and colors under the glaze layer and prevent them from fading or damage due to wear or chemical corrosion;

[0033] After the glaze layer is combined with the ceramic body, it can improve the product's anti-bending and anti-impact properties, making it more durable, especially for ceramic products, this effect is more obvious; the glaze layer can make the ceramic surface harder and more wear-resistant, reducing the performance degradation caused by wear during use;

[0034] It should be noted that the appropriate glaze color should be selected according to the style of the work in order to set off and enhance the expressiveness of the "image of the mountain".

[0035] Preferably, the kiln is equipped with a controllable atmosphere function, the controllable atmosphere includes a reducing atmosphere and an oxidizing atmosphere, the temperature of the reducing atmosphere is 1330°C, and the temperature of the oxidizing atmosphere is 1230°C;

[0036] From the above, we can see that according to the needs of the work, apply appropriate glaze to the ceramic body. It should be noted that: be careful to avoid the candle pattern area; put the work into the kiln and first fire it in an oxidizing atmosphere (1230℃) to make the glaze fully melt and combine with the ceramic body; then adjust to a reducing atmosphere (1330℃) to make the candle pattern completely melt at high temperature and penetrate into the ceramic surface, forming a unique texture and color effect; after firing, wait for the kiln to cool naturally and take out the work for subsequent processing.

[0037] Preferably, the clay includes all types of clay

[0038] As can be seen from the above, by dripping patterns on liquid candles and attaching the wax pattern to the surface of the ceramic body, and taking advantage of the viscosity and rapid solidification of the wax, the following benefits are achieved:

[0039] This method provides an unprecedented way to decorate ceramic works, making each piece unique, full of creativity and individuality; artists can directly embody their artistic concepts and aesthetic ideas in ceramic works by attaching complex graphics and patterns to liquid candles.

[0040] The addition of candle patterns enables the ceramic works to produce unique light and shadow effects under light, thus greatly improving the appreciation of the works; due to the uniqueness and difficulty of this decorative method, the ceramic works using this method have a higher added value in the market;

[0041] Preferably, the firing method is one of wood firing or electric firing;

[0042] In summary, this technical solution, through the innovative application of lost wax method in ceramic art creation, not only enriches the expression techniques and subject matter of ceramic art, but also gives the works profound cultural connotations and symbolic meanings, and promotes the development of ceramic art in a more diversified and innovative direction.

[0043] The present invention uses the lost wax process combined with the design concept of ceramic art to create a ceramic work with the "image of a mountain" as its appearance. The present invention aims to explore the multiple symbolic meanings of mountains, such as protection, compassion, seclusion, wisdom, etc., and to show the charm and power of the mountains through the traditional medium of ceramics, so as to spread the multiple symbolic meanings of the mountains through the form of ceramics, so as to achieve the role of promoting the exchange and inheritance of civilization and culture.

[0044] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0045] This technical solution innovatively uses the lost wax method in ceramic art creation, which not only enriches the expression techniques and subject matter of ceramic art, but also gives the works profound cultural connotations and symbolic meanings, and promotes the development of ceramic art in a more diversified and innovative direction.
