How to choose decking tiles?

<p>Choosing a suitable decking tile&nbsp;for your new house can create a comfortable, beautiful, practical and safe living space for the entire family. There are various kinds of <a href="https://www.diytile.net/artificial-grass-deck-tiles" target="_blank">decking tiles</a>&nbsp;on the market, so how do we choose the right decking tiles? The following is the Jiabang Deck Tiles Supplier to introduce how to choose the decking tile&nbsp;is the best.</p><p>The first is the function of the <a href="https://www.diytile.net/artificial-grass-deck-tiles" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>decking tile</strong></a>, meaning where is it used? If it is a kitchen and a toilet, it must be moisture-proof and non-slip. If you are using a living room, it is a point that needs attention. These basic knowledge, the general sales staff will also explain some when going to buy. Secondly, we must pay attention to the selection of decking tiles.</p><p>1. Take a look at the surface of the tiles first to see if there are defects such as caves, pinholes, glaze slag, and dirt on the surface; then look at the glossiness. The higher the glossiness, the better the sintering density of the tiles and the quality of the tiles. The better. Good tiles, the glazed surface presents a crystal-clear and translucent feeling, under the illumination of the light will reflect the light like a mirror, while the poor tiles, the glazed surface is dull.</p><p>In addition, there is the regularity of the tiles. When buying ceramic tiles, you can sample the tiles you purchased: calculate the length of the diagonal according to the length and width dimensions provided by the merchant, and measure the diagonal with a tape measure to know whether the tiles are regular. The higher the accuracy of the specifications, the better the effect can be guaranteed when laying. According to the national standard, the length and width error range of the tile size is: e±0.5% f±0.3%, and the tiles exceeding this standard are inferior tiles.</p><p>2. Listen to the sound to distinguish the quality of the tiles. Tap the tiles lightly with your hand. If you make a "pop, poo" sound, it indicates that it has insufficient sintering and poor texture. If a slight "dump" sound is made, the texture is harder than the previous one. Good tiles have high density, and the sound is relatively crisp and crisp; the poor tiles have low density and the sound is dull.</p><p>&nbsp;3. Falling is not afraid of falling. A good ceramic tile will not be damaged after falling straight and vertical. This is determined by the strength of the ceramic tile. A good ceramic tile has high strength and will not show any damage when it falls, while a poor ceramic tile has a relatively low strength and will break once it is dropped.</p><p>4. Weigh the ceramic tile with greater weight. A good ceramic tile has a high density, so it will be heavier and more solid, with a relatively uniform thickness, and no corners and corners. Poor quality tiles are relatively light. Tiles of the same specification are generally better in heavier tiles.</p><p>5. Press to suspend the ceramic tile. Take a normal person's weight as an example. A person stands on the ceramic tile. If the ceramic tile is basically not damaged or cracked, it means that the ceramic tile's load-bearing capacity is very good. The poorer tiles are easier to break and cannot bear the heavier weight.</p><p>6. Anti-slip property test Put one end of the ceramic tile on the ladder to form a slightly inclined ladder surface, then pour water on the surface of the porcelain turn, and put the water cup on the surface. It can be seen on the scene whether the water cup has slipped. This method can be used Determine whether the anti-skid performance of the tiles is good.</p><p>Note: The bathroom must choose tiles with good anti-skid properties. The toilet is generally wet for a long time, and it will slip if accidentally. If the waterproof performance of the decking tile&nbsp;is not good, the decking tile&nbsp;may also swell. Therefore, the decking tile&nbsp;must be guaranteed to be non-slip and waterproof. Both the resistance and the abrasion resistance are very good; and the wall tiles of the toilets generally use glazed tiles, which have rich color patterns and strong anti-fouling capabilities.</p><p>7. Water resistance test to test the water absorption rate of ceramic tiles. After a good ceramic tile is fired at high temperature, the water absorption rate is relatively low. When the water is poured on the ceramic tile, there will not be a large diffusion phenomenon, indicating that the ceramic tile basically does not absorb water. Yes, the quality is relatively better. But for poor tiles, there will be obvious water absorption reaction after the water falls. The lower the water absorption rate, the higher the internal stability of the ceramic tile, the better the degree of vitrification, the better the physical and chemical properties of the product, and the less likely to be cracks and flaking due to climate change, thermal expansion and contraction. Therefore, to select an excellent ceramic tile, this test is also essential. International standards stipulate that the water absorption rate of porcelain tiles should be 0.5% or less.</p><p>In order to facilitate the observation of water absorption, we poured the ink diluted with water on the back of the tiles. Good tiles hardly absorb water, and poor quality tiles will have obvious water absorption.</p><p>8. Corrosion and abrasion resistance test Chemical resistance: including resistance to low concentrations of acids and alkalis, high concentrations of acids and alkalis, resistance to household chemicals and swimming pool salts. Use a writing pen to leave traces on the bricks, wipe them with a common rag, and remove the dirt. If no obvious traces are left, it means that the corrosion resistance of the tiles is better. Abrasion resistance: Including cutting and polishing of knives, keys, scissors and other utensils.</p><p>Use ordinary scissors to wipe the surface of the brick vigorously. If no scratches are left on the surface, it means that the brick is more resistant to abrasion. This is a method of measuring hardness, or wear resistance. Whether it is a wall tile or a decking tile, it will encounter wear problems under normal use. Good quality tiles have high wear resistance, and it is difficult to produce strong visual wear for a long time. Inferior tiles often produce dull surface patterns or even cracks after a few months. If the ceramic tile has a long service life and does not affect the appearance, this test can not be ignored.</p><p>That's all for knowledge about how to choose decking tiles.
