Types of decorative facing tiles for brick
Starting from raw materials and the principle of roasting, they distinguish clinker and ceramics made for brick. The ceramic base is made of clay with low melting point. Since roasting and processing of the product takes about two hours, the final cost of the product is quite democratic. The appearance is attractive, however, the strength indicators are not up to par.
Clinker dough is kneaded from shale species of refractory clay. It takes 36 hours for burning at 1250-1300 degrees. The main advantages are high density with low water absorption, low thermal conductivity and good frost resistance. Weight is not significant, it is noteworthy that "ripening" with time, that is, an increase in strength. The price is quite high.
