The concept of daily ceramics
Daily ceramics refer to ceramic products used for food and drink, such as plates, bowls, cups, and plates. The emergence of daily ceramics can be said to be due to people's needs for daily life. In daily life, people come into contact with the most familiar porcelain, such as tableware, tea sets, coffee sets, wine sets, rice sets, etc.
Daily use ceramics have the advantages of easy washing and keeping clean, good thermal stability, slow heat transfer, stable chemical properties, durability, few pores, low water absorption and colorful color painting decoration, especially high temperature glaze, blue and white decoration and other lead-free poisoning hazards, which can be used boldly. They are very popular and widely used in families, hotels, gifts, wine bottles and other fields.
The main indicators related to human health in
daily ceramic products are the release of heavy metal elements such as lead and cadmium. There is little or no lead release and cadmium release from underglaze color products, underglaze color products, colored glazed porcelain, white porcelain, and the vast majority of Overglaze decoration color products also have very low lead release and cadmium release, which are within the control range of national standards. Very few Overglaze decoration color products use inferior pigments, or use excessive amounts of pigments with high lead and cadmium content in pattern design, or the temperature and ventilation conditions during baking are insufficient, and the lead and cadmium dissolution will exceed the maximum allowable limit of national standards.
At present, the problem of excessive heavy metals such as lead and cadmium in daily ceramics has been basically solved, meeting the requirements of non-toxic, durable, and aesthetically pleasing appearance. In addition to solving the problem of excessive heavy metals in traditional daily ceramics, we should also develop new types of healthy ceramics. At present, there are some new kinds of health ceramics: trace element health glaze with special health care functions, antibacterial ceramics, Far infrared high-energy biochemical ceramics.
With the deterioration of the international economic situation, more and more countries are implementing various almost stringent technical standards to manufacture trade barriers. In order to effectively respond to trade protection, Chinese ceramic enterprises must first rely on technological innovation to achieve industrial standard upgrading. At the same time, relevant enterprises should actively obtain the Professional certification of ceramic products from relevant countries to obtain the qualification to enter the markets of these countries.
At present, there is still a certain gap between domestic daily ceramic products and developed countries and regions such as Europe, the United States, and Japan. The fundamental reason is the design concept. In foreign countries, daily ceramic products have long been separated from the concept of "pots and pans" and are designed and operated as valuable artworks. With the continuous improvement of national quality and economic income, people's quality of life and aesthetic ability are also constantly improving. Daily ceramic products have been regarded as artworks, and traditional ceramic product styles can no longer meet the pursuit of modern people. Therefore, ceramic products should develop in the direction of shaping irregularity, diversifying decorative art, humanizing, highly technical, and distinctive themes. The design of daily ceramics is a product of the combination of life, art, and science. Designers should grasp the design concept of "people-oriented", constantly learn and explore, and design various high-quality and high artistic value daily ceramic products.
