Foreword

This document complies with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part 1: Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents".

Drafting.

This document is Part 1 of GB/T 7410, "Terminology for Enamelware and Enamel Glazes". GB/T 7410 has already published the following parts.

s) Added terms and definitions for daily-use products/hollow products and assembled cans in the classification terms by application (see 3.4.4.9, 3.4.4.10);

t) Added other classification terms such as self-colored enamel, granite-patterned enamel, translucent enamel, writing board enamel, easy-clean enamel, and static enamel.

Terminology and definitions for electro-enamel and pre-ground powder (see 3.4.5.1~3.4.5.7);

u) Added terms and definitions for flowability, rheology, thixotropy, and viscosity to the performance terminology of glaze powders and glaze slurries (see 3.5.2.5~).

Introduction

GB/T 7410 aims to standardize the professional terms and definitions involved in enamel products and porcelain glaze products, and is proposed to consist of two parts.

---Part 1: Terms and Definitions. The purpose is to regulate the use of terms and definitions in the field of enamelware and porcelain glazes by clearly defining these terms and definitions.

Application of terminology in the enamel industry.

---Part 2: Appearance and Description. The purpose is to vividly illustrate the defects and characteristics related to enamel products and glazes through images.

Clearly distinguish the various defect terms.

Enamelware and enamel terminology Part 1: Terms and Definitions

1 Scope

This document defines the terminology and definitions in the field of enamelware and porcelain glaze.

This document applies to the production, design, technology, trade, testing and management of enamel products and glazes and related fields.

3.1.1.1

enamel; porcelain enamel Enamel Typically, a material primarily composed of glassy inorganic silica is fused onto a base metal (3.1.1.5) and forms a strong bond with the metal.

Composite materials.

3.1.1.2

glass-linedsteel;glasscoatedsteel;glassedsteel Industrial enamel A type of enamel with strong corrosion resistance, temperature resistance and pressure resistance (3.1.1.1).

Note. Generally used in the chemical industry.

3.1.1.3

frit

Inorganic glassy materials are formed by mixing, melting and rapidly cooling inorganic raw materials of a certain composition.

Note. It is usually in granular or flake form. Granular flakes are formed by rapidly cooling the melt (3.1.2.8) in water, while flake flakes are formed by quenching the melt on water-cooled rollers.

It is formed by pressing and rapidly cooling.

3.1.1.4
