With the development of the types of ceramic tile, ceramic tile has already become an indispensable adornment for people to decorate the house. But everything has two sides. With the requirement of ceramic tile expanding continuously, then the problem comes: does ceramic tile have radiation? If it does, how to reduce radiation from ceramic tile?

Does Ceramic Tile Have Radiation?

Most ceramic tiles have radiation. The raw materials of ceramic tile products come from stone powder, quartz powder, long sand powder, zircon powder and other mineral soils, and these raw materials will occur radioactive elements in the process of metamorphosis. In addition, the raw materials of ceramic tile, which are natural stone materials, will more or less have radiation. In order to facilitate decontamination and avoid erosion, manufacturers usually apply a layer of "glaze" on the surface. Zircon sand is added to the glazed tile as an emulsion corrosion agent, while the content of natural radionuclides in zircon sand is generally high.

In addition, the radioactive pollution of dark tiles is more serious. The darker the tiles are, the more radioactive they contain, the greater the radiation. Red is the most serious. The whiter the tiles are, the more supplementary additives they often contain. Generally, the radiation is greater, and the radiation of white tiles with polished surface is stronger. Therefore, unless the glaze itself is white, large white tiles are not suitable for large-area layint.
