Generally speaking, the top grade is the one with fine, hard and brittle fracture and consistent color. Because the tiles with fine particles have strong waterproof ability, the tiles with large particles are easy to soak in water, which affects the quality.
Third, pay attention to the thickness of the glaze layer: the thickness of the glaze layer is the cross-sectional thickness of the glaze. Glaze is an expensive material in the cost of ceramic tiles. The thicker the glaze layer, the better the quality. Tap the tiles and pay attention to whether the sound is crisp. If the sound is crisp and pleasant, it is the top grade; If the sound is dull, it is an inferior product. Consumers can pour some water on the back of the tile, and pay attention to the speed at which the tile absorbs water. See if the traces left by the accumulated water in front are obvious.
