Infrared gas stove has advantage of uniform heating, high heat efficiency, full combustion, less smoke and so on. Its heat efficiency can be up to 68.5% . It becomes to the representative product of energy-saving stove. Honeycomb ceramic plate is a key parts of infrared energy-save stove. Its apparent and physical and chemical properties have a certain influence on the stove design and home decoration.We will study effect of color on property if infrared cordierite honeycomb ceramic plate.
Instruction of Cordierite Honeycomb ceramic
Currently, honeycomb ceramic is widely used in automobile exhaust purifier, ozone inhibition catalyst support, heat exchange in metallurgical industry and filtration of molten metal, light industry spray, the silencing materials for building industries and thermal insulation material for furnace. Honeycomb ceramic plate is the core parts of gas infrared heater. It heats objects by heat radiation. As heat radiation has many special properties and ceramic has high thermal radiation rate, hence, compared with traditional heater, honeycomb ceramic plate infrared heater has higher heat efficiency, much lower exhaust of CO, NOx.
The infrared energy-saving cooker adopts the infrared heating principle of honeycomb ceramic plate.This kind of infrared radiation ceramic plate can send out a certain length of infrared ray. It can accelerate the heating process. The ceramic plate has short flame when it works attached to the fire hole under the plate surface.We almost see the flame so it is called flame-free combustion mode.
The infrared gas stove with infrared honeycomb ceramic have four obvious advantage compared with the normal gas stove.
- It is safer with higher heat transaction efficiency and thermal adsorption efficiency. It can save at least 20% gas.
- As it is frame-free combustion, the cooker will not become black even after long term use.It is a completely clean cooking method.
- It can inhibit the production of harmful carbon and nitrogen oxide and eliminate the hidden danger to human health.
- It has excellent windproof performance due to is honeycomb structure. The flame is not easy to be cut off.
Normally the infrared honeycomb ceramic plate is light gray color without adding another pigment.In order to make the various type of ceramic plate , we can also add pigment such as red, black , blue, yellow and so on.Through study and test, we get following conclusion.
- The addition of color will not affect the main properties of cordierite honeycomb ceramics
- The content of pigment hasn’t obvious effect on shrinkage, water absorption but have effect on bending strength.Praseodymium yellow and cobalt black ceramic plate has higher resistance to bending
- The color honeycomb ceramic plate has standard shrinkage, water absorption, bending resistance and thermal shock resistance.
- Considering the cost, 8% pigment is the best content.
