Is the water absorption rate of cement tile good?

When buying cement tiles, people will pay attention to the water absorption of cement tiles. Floor tiles with high water absorption rate generally have good water permeability and drainage capacity, so is the water absorption rate of cement bricks good? Today, PChouse will answer them one by one.

1, the water absorption of cement tile is generally around 0.5%, and the water absorption is relatively high. The thickness of cement tile is thicker than that of ordinary ceramic tile, because cement tile has a * * * three-layer structure, namely, surface pigment layer, middle dense layer and bottom pressure-bearing structure layer, and the pigment layer is thicker than the glaze layer of ceramic tile, so the color of ceramic tile will become thicker and thicker as time goes on. However, the water absorption of cement tiles is relatively high, so cement tiles are not very resistant to dirt. It is suggested to lay waterproof layer to make cement bricks more resistant to dirt when laying.

2. Cement tile is a kind of decorative building material, which is prefabricated by natural pigment and white cement in proportion. Traditional bricks are fired, but cement tiles are not. They are pressed by high pressure, which makes the colored cement compact and coagulate. After solidification, the hardness is high, so it is very wear-resistant. Moreover, with long use time and good maintenance, the surface will become smoother and smoother, but it will not make people slip.

3. The manufacturing process of cement brick and ceramic tile is different. They don't need clay, glaze or kiln, but adopt wet manufacturing method. After manufacturing, the cement tile is dried outdoors and then packaged. Therefore, handmade cement bricks are environmentally friendly, resistant to high temperature, not easy to crack and fade, and the color can be described as enduring.
