Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of ceramics, in particular to a ceramic glaze and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the increasing improvement of people's living standards, ordinary people pay more and more attention to the cleaning of dirt on the surface of sanitary wares and daily-use ceramics; ceramic materials for building exterior walls also need to be self-cleaning (easy-to-clean performance). Since detergents not only cause water pollution but also have an impact on human health, therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop ceramic materials with anti-fouling performance. From a large number of studies on the anti-fouling property of ceramic glaze, the existing anti-fouling technology on the surface of ceramic products can be roughly divided into the following two kinds. One is to provide a super-hydrophilic surface, so as to remove most of the dirt by water flushing; the other is to provide a super-hydrophobic surface, so as to reduce the adhesion of dirt on the ceramic surface.

[0003] However, according to the existing market products, the effects provided by the above two methods are very limited, and it is still an important research topic in the field to improve the easy-to-clean performance of ceramic products. SUMMARY

[0004] The present application aims to at least solve one of the problems existing in the prior art. To this end, the present application provides a ceramic glaze which can effectively reduce the cleaning difficulty of the glaze and improve the antibacterial property of the glaze.

[0005] The present application also provides a preparation method of the above-mentioned ceramic glaze.

[0006] The present application also provides a ceramic product prepared from the raw material including the above-mentioned ceramic glaze.

[0007] According to the embodiment of the first aspect of the present application, a ceramic glaze is provided, which comprises a base glaze and a photocatalyst;

[0008] The photocatalyst comprises graphene and modified titanium dioxide and modified zinc oxide loaded on the surface of the graphene;

[0009] The modified titanium dioxide is Fe and S co-doped titanium dioxide, and the modified zinc oxide is Cu-doped zinc oxide;

[0010] The particle size of the modified titanium dioxide and / or the modified zinc oxide is 10-30 nm;

[0011] The mass ratio of the photocatalyst to the solid in the base glaze is 0.5-3:100.

[0012] The ceramic glaze according to the embodiment of the present application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0013] The titanium dioxide and the zinc oxide are common photocatalysts, Fe and S are doped into the former, and Cu is doped into the latter, so that the band gap of the corresponding material is reduced, the response of the material is extended from the ultraviolet light to the visible light, but the spectral response of the two materials is different; therefore, the modified titanium dioxide and the modified zinc oxide are combined, so that the light response range of the photocatalyst is widened.

[0014] In the photocatalyst, the modified titanium dioxide and the modified zinc oxide are loaded on the surface of the graphene, so that the contact between the two is promoted, and even chemical connection is formed; further, a heterojunction is formed between the two, and the photocatalytic activity is further improved. Further, in the subsequent preparation method, the graphene is used as a carrier, and the oxygen-containing groups on the graphene are used as chemical anchor points, so that the particle size of the modified titanium dioxide and the modified zinc oxide can be limited, and smaller particle size exposes more active sites, and the photocatalytic activity is further improved.

[0015] Further, in the photocatalyst, the graphene and other components can have a synergistic effect, and the photocatalytic activity is further improved; the graphene itself can also improve the hardness, wear resistance and toughness of the glaze surface of the ceramic glaze.

[0016] Due to the above-mentioned multi-angle synergistic effect, the ceramic glaze prepared by the application has excellent visible light catalytic activity, and can catalytically decompose organic matter, such as cell membranes of bacteria, etc., on the surface under the condition of visible light. Based on the above reasons, the ceramic glaze provided by the application also has excellent antibacterial performance.

[0129] In step S1a, an equal amount of graphene is replaced by carbon nanotubes, which are purchased from Xianfeng Nanometer with model number XFD01.

[0130] Application example

[0131] A ceramic product is prepared in this example, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0132] The blank is glazed and dried by dipping glaze, and the dried thickness of the glaze layer is 0.4 mm;

[0133] After glazing, the obtained semi-finished product is sintered under nitrogen protection, the highest temperature of sintering is 1200℃, the constant temperature time at the highest temperature is 60min; after the constant temperature ends, the temperature is first reduced to 650℃ at a speed of 120℃ / h, then reduced to below 120℃ at a speed of 300℃ / h, and then discharged from the furnace.

[0134] In the formula, the blank used in the example is composed of corundum 30%, potassium feldspar 29%, kaolin 30%, ball clay 5%, talc 2%, zinc oxide 1%, and zirconium oxide 3% by mass percentage.

[0135] Test Example

[0136] In the example, the morphology, wear resistance, antibacterial property and easy-to-clean performance of the ceramic product obtained in the application example are tested, wherein,

[0137] The morphology is tested by transmission electron microscopy.

[0138] Wear resistance: refer to GB / T3810.7 Test method in 2016 "Ceramic tile test methods Part 7: determination of glazed tile surface wear resistance", the grinding medium is a 3mm diameter steel ball (52.5g), after 12000 revolutions, rinse with deionized water, dry at 110℃, and record the wear mass.

[0139] Antibacterial property: refer to JC / T897 Test the antibacterial performance of the ceramic sample according to the method disclosed in 2014, record the antibacterial rate, and the bacteria is escherichia coli.

[0140] Easy-to-clean performance: refer to GB / T30447-2013 to test the pure water contact angle. Take 1 sun as a simulation light source, place the ceramic product obtained in the application example in a methylene blue solution with a concentration of 20mg / L, take the supernatant after irradiation for 30min, and measure the degradation rate of methylene blue; in each example and comparative example, the glaze surface area of the added ceramic product is consistent.

[0141] The morphology test results show that the modified titanium dioxide and the modified zinc oxide in the photocatalyst used in the application have no obvious boundary, and the two are overlapped and contacted, and are jointly loaded on the surface of graphene. The particle size of a single cluster is in the range of 10-30nm. In comparative example 1, due to the lack of the effect of graphene, the metal oxide clusters are aggregated, and the particle size can even reach micron level; in comparative example 2, the particle size of the modified zinc oxide is large, and there is no direct contact between the modified titanium oxide.

[0142] The above test results are shown in Table 1.

[0143] Table 1 Performance of ceramic glaze obtained in examples and comparative examples

[0144]

[0145] According to the above results, it can be known that the ceramic products prepared by the ceramic glaze within the parameter range provided by the application have excellent wear resistance, antibacterial property and easy-to-clean property.

[0146] The results of Examples 1-2 show that within a certain range, increasing the amount of graphene can fully exert the role of graphene in improving wear resistance, but in Example 2, the proportion of modified zinc oxide and modified titanium oxide is also reduced, and the light degradation rate and the antibacterial rate are also reduced due to the light shielding effect of graphene. The pure water contact angle is also improved due to the change of the above components.

[0147] The results of Examples 1 and 3 show that within the range provided by the application, increasing the doping amount of iron in titanium oxide to a certain extent is beneficial to improving its catalytic efficiency in visible light.

[0148] The results of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-2 show that in the photocatalyst provided by the application, there is a significant synergistic effect between graphene, modified titanium dioxide and modified zinc oxide. Graphene as a carrier can avoid the agglomeration of modified titanium dioxide and modified zinc oxide. The specific preparation method promotes the direct contact of modified titanium dioxide and modified zinc oxide and produces a heterojunction, which can significantly improve the photocatalytic activity and further improve the degradation rate of organic matter and the antibacterial rate. Further, the special form of the photocatalyst used in the application also has the effect of improving the dispersibility of graphene. Therefore, in Comparative Examples 1-2, the dispersibility of graphene is poor, so the wear resistance of the obtained ceramic product is also poor. Further, the dispersibility of modified titanium dioxide and / or modified zinc oxide is poor, so the gain effect on hydrophilicity is greatly reduced.

[0149] The results of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 3-4 show that if the amount of photocatalyst is not within the range required by the application, the photocatalytic performance of the obtained ceramic product will be significantly reduced. The former is due to too little photocatalyst, and the latter is due to serious light shielding by graphene.

[0150] The results of Example 1 and Comparative Example 5 show that although graphene and carbon nanotubes are both commonly used carbon-based materials, the former has a sheet structure and can be uniformly spread in the glaze layer, fully exerting the synergistic effect of the components, while the latter tends to wind and aggregate, and the performance gain of the obtained ceramic glaze is very limited.

[0151] The above embodiments of the application are described in detail, but the application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the application. In addition, the embodiments of the application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
