Color-forming mechanism
|
A variety of clay spontaneously colors and concoction at high temperatures without chemical pigment blending, Large area using can protect the same color
|
Natural color, color consistency great influenced by mine
|
Color After, Color Pigment are mostly organic pigment, good consistency but easily fade
|
Heavy metaloxides issued a color

Low alkaline
|
Hollow process, Insulation, excellent noise reduction performance, weight light, just save a lot of installation of steel, clay material, thermal conductivity less than half of stone, can be recycled after hundred years
|
Insulation, poor noise reduction performance , heavy weight, need to reinforce
|
Noinsulation, light weight
|
Good transparency, noinsulation
|
poor heat and noise reduction, heavy weight, need strong reinforcement
|
|
production process Environmentally friendly
|
No need to over-processing of raw materials, no waste water, raw materials from shale and clay, rich in natural resources, mining easy, and a lot of waste with a cinder can be used.
|
Processing will produce a lot of waste water, small resources and mining cause large damage to environmental
