What is enamel? What's the use?

Nowadays, many people may not have much contact with enamel products and do not understand them. In the 1980s and 1990s, almost every household had enamel, enamel plates, enamel bowls, enamel pots and so on. With the improvement of production technology and aesthetics, enamel products have returned to everyone's sight, and many people may wonder what material is the coating on enamel. Is enamel coating safe?

Enamel is made of metal blank and enamel coating by high temperature sintering. Enamel coating is commonly known as enamel glaze. This kind of enamel glaze is an inorganic glassy material. Like common enamel bowls or cups, there is not only one enamel coating, which can be divided into enamel bottom glaze, enamel top glaze and enamel bottom glaze. Enamel bottom glaze can make the porcelain layer and metal blank more closely combined, with very good adhesion effect, and the enamel surface glaze will be more beautiful and delicate. Enamel base glaze is usually also called transparent glaze, and its main function is to decorate enamel products. The desired color or style can be obtained by combining enamel transparent glaze with enamel pigment.

Enamel enamel has many characteristics, such as acid resistance, alkali resistance and wear resistance. At the same time, it is very safe and will not precipitate harmful substances in the production process. It is also very healthy during use and harmless to human body. Its surface is very smooth and easy to clean, so besides daily enamel, it is also used in household appliances, oven grills, building wallboard, industrial reactors and other industries.

To sum up, enamel coating is a very safe and environmentally friendly material, and its rich characteristics determine its various uses. However, attention should also be paid to protection during use. If enamel products are subjected to strong impacts for many times, it may have a certain impact on them and affect their service life.
