Shandong Weihong: A high-quality and stable expert in ceramic methyl production

"After testing, using our company's CMC products can increase the strength of ceramic bodies by about 70%, effectively improving the suspension stability of the glaze, and greatly contributing to the improvement of ceramic tile production." Guo Jingwei, general manager of Shandong Weihong Economic and Trade Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Shandong Weihong"), confidently said.
It is understood that sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, commonly known as "methyl" (CMC), can be used in ceramic tile bodies, glaze pastes, and flower glazes. The use of CMC in ceramic brick bodies can increase the plasticity of sediment, facilitate the formation of the body, and increase the flexural strength of the body. It is a good body reinforcement agent; CMC is used in glaze paste and flower glaze, which can be used as a binder for suspension, coagulation, and water retention.
Methyl is a necessary product for body and glaze in ceramic production. Choosing methyl is crucial for the quality of finished ceramic products. Shandong Weihong is one of the four enterprises that have introduced and focused on the production and marketing of CMC in China. Currently, the company has developed a unique series of CMC products that can achieve a ceramic body strength of 1.35 and effectively reduce the body damage rate.
According to Guo Jingwei, CMC can also be applied to the bottom and top glazes of ceramic tiles, which can keep the glaze body in a stable and dispersed state, improve the surface tension of the glaze, slow down the speed of water diffusion from the glaze to the body, increase the smoothness of the glaze, avoid cracking and printing fractures during transportation caused by the decrease in the strength of the body after glaze application, and reduce needle holes in the glaze surface after sintering. It is worth mentioning that Shandong Weihong's methyl products mainly use refined cotton, chloroacetic acid, sodium hydroxide, and ethanol as raw materials, and use the solvent method process to conduct alkalization and etherification reactions. The solvent is ethanol (i.e. alcohol), which generates alkaline products, without pollution throughout the process.
"Our product positioning is high-end, and we are not afraid of the strict quality requirements of the ceramic industry. Over the years, we have formed a strict standardized management system with high-quality and stable products and thoughtful and considerate services, and have provided stable products for enterprises with high standards and strict requirements for CMC in the fields of food and medicine." Guo Jingwei emphasized.
With excellent technology, today's Shandong Weihong ceramic methyl CMC products are not only supplied to the domestic market, but also exported to the United States, Europe, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and other countries and regions. The high-end ceramic dedicated CMC produced has provided overall solutions for well-known ceramic brands such as Nobel, Marco Polo, and Mona Lisa. In particular, the cooperation with Hangzhou Nobel for six years has never experienced product complaints. The excellent and stable quality and thoughtful service have laid a solid foundation for long-term cooperation between the two sides.
It is also reported that the modern enterprise of Shandong Weihong, which covers an area of 150 mu, is currently under further construction, and the first phase plan for a construction area of about 70 mu and an annual output of 10000 tons has been successfully completed. In the future, Shandong Weihong will continue to increase investment and introduce equipment to increase production capacity. It is expected that the second phase of the project will reach 20000 tons.
