Ceramic gloss measurement applications

Gloss meter is an instrument used to measure the surface gloss of coatings, and it is also widely used in ceramic gloss testing.

application:

• Quality control in the ceramic production process to ensure that the glossiness of the ceramic surface meets the quality requirements.

• To identify true and false ceramics, the true and false ceramics can be distinguished through gloss measurement.

• Inspection during maintenance and maintenance to ensure the stability and durability of the ceramic surface gloss.

Measurement steps:

1. Preparations: Put the gloss meter on a stable horizontal platform, turn on the power, and ensure that the gloss meter is in normal working condition.

2. Sample preparation: Place the ceramic to be tested on the gloss meter measuring platform to ensure that the surface of the ceramic is smooth, smooth, free of scratches, stains and bubbles.

3. Calibrate the gloss meter: Use a standard calibration plate to calibrate the gloss meter to ensure the accuracy of the measurement.

4. Measure the sample: aim the gloss meter probe at the surface of the sample, press the measurement button, and measure the gloss of the sample. It is generally recommended to perform multiple measurements and take the average value as the final measurement result.

5. Record data: record the data of each measurement, including gloss value, measurement time, sample information, etc.

Beichao reminds you: when testing the glossiness of ceramics, you should pay attention to the influence of environmental conditions, such as avoiding direct sunlight and dust. At the same time, attention should also be paid to how the sample is handled to avoid problems such as damage or deformation of the sample surface. In addition, the gloss of the ceramic surface is related to the glaze of the sample, so when using a gloss meter for measurement, it is necessary to use a suitable angle to ensure the accuracy of the measurement
