Diatom mud

Diatomaceous mud takes diatomite as the main raw material and is used to replace wallpaper and latex paint. It is suitable for interior wall decoration of villas, apartments, hotels, homes, hospitals, etc. Powder decorative coating with various additives, powder packaging, not liquid barreled. Due to its good workability and plasticity, construction, painting on walls, making patterns, etc. can be shaped at will, like mud, and diatomaceous earth is added. The construction workers are used to calling diatomaceous mud. As time goes by, the "diatomaceous mud" now known by everyone has come into being.



Origin of diatom mud

Diatomaceous earth wall material originated from Japan, which is called "diatom mineral wall material". The superior performance of this product, together with the effect of pure manual plastering and finishing, has been appreciated just after entering the market and attracted great attention. Diatomaceous earth wall material itself is a kind of wall material with the functions of heat preservation, heat cutoff, prevention of condensation, humidity regulation, sound insulation, removal of odor, and craftsmanship artistic style, which has attracted wide attention among many architects, design companies, and designers. Subsequently, the unique expressiveness and performance of diatomite wall materials were quickly accepted by high-end consumers. It has been applied to many large-scale projects in Japan.


Although the diatomite wall material has superior performance, its texture is rough and its space use is limited. After the diatomite wall material was introduced into China in 2003, the performance and texture of the product have been greatly improved through continuous improvement and perfection by relevant research and development departments, and the surface texture of the product has become more soft, warm and even, which is widely suitable for home decoration needs. With the rapid development of diatom mud products in just a few years, diatom mud has also become an industry, and the industry has grown gradually, with more and more brands. Nowadays, ordinary residential buildings have also adopted diatom mud products, and there are construction examples of diatom mud wall materials in internal and external walls, ceilings and other places.

Technical principle of diatom mud

This technology of diatom mud has completely solved the decoration pollution and indoor pollution problems that are difficult to solve in the world, so that people can enjoy fresh air and negative oxygen ions without leaving home. This technology has completely solved the decoration pollution and indoor pollution problems that are difficult to solve in the world, so that people can enjoy fresh air and negative oxygen ions without leaving home. Diatoms are deposited and mineralized for hundreds of millions of years to form diatom minerals, which are mainly composed of opal, soft and porous. Electronic microscope shows that diatom mineral is a kind of nano porous material (micropore diameter is about 0.1-0.2 μ m), with porosity up to 90%, regularly and orderly arranged in circular and needle shape, and the number of micropores per unit area is thousands of times more than that of charcoal. The outstanding characteristics of molecular lattice structure determine its unique functions. Diatom minerals have extremely strong physical adsorption and ion exchange properties, and are widely used in alcohol and medical injection filtration, food additives, nuclear radiation adsorbent and many other fields after finishing. Diatoms precipitate to form diatomite, a diatomite mineral.

Results of diatom slime products

Diatom mud itself has no pollution and has many functions, which are incomparable to traditional coatings such as latex paint and wallpaper. There is no need to move when decorating with diatom mud, because there is no smell during the construction of diatom mud.


Natural and environmental protection


The diatom mud wall material is composed of natural inorganic materials without any harmful substances and additives. The material itself is a pure green environmental protection product. Its main component diatom mineral is widely used in beauty mask, beer food filtration, etc.


Purified air


Diatom slime products have a unique "molecular sieve" structure and selective adsorption performance, which can remove free formaldehyde, benzene, ammonia and other harmful substances in the air, as well as odor generated by pets, inhalation and garbage, and purify the indoor air.


Soft color


Diatom mud is mixed with inorganic pigments, and the color is soft. When people live in a room coated with diatom mud, the reflection light on the wall is natural and soft, people are not easy to have visual fatigue, protect your vision and that of your family, especially for children. At the same time, the color of the diatom mud wall is as new as new, which is not easy to fade. The wall is as new as new for a long time, which increases the life of the wall, reduces the number of times of wall decoration, and saves the living cost.


Fire retardant


The diatom mud is composed of inorganic materials, so it does not burn, and will not emit any harmful fog even in case of fire. When the temperature rises to 1300 ℃, the diatom mud only appears molten state, and no harmful gas and other fog will be generated.


Respiration and humidity regulation


With the change of ambient air temperature in different seasons and in the morning and evening, diatom mud can absorb or release water, and automatically adjust indoor air humidity to achieve relative balance.


Sound absorption and noise reduction


Due to the molecular structure of diatom mud itself, it has a strong noise reduction function, which can absorb high-frequency sound segments harmful to human body and attenuate low-frequency noise. The result is more than twice as much as that of cement mortar and slate of the same thickness. At the same time, it can reduce the residual sound time by 50%, greatly reduce the harm of noise to human body, and create a quiet sleeping environment for you.


Handicraft


The construction process of diatom mud can be completed with traditional craftsmanship and special tools according to different requirements and preferences of customers. Diatom mud has rich texture, natural effect, vivid texture and strong artistic appeal.


Dust free


The diatom mud is not easy to generate static electricity, and the wall surface is not easy to fall dust.


unfading


The service life of diatom mud can reach more than 30 years, and it will be new after a long time.


Thermal insulation


Diatomaceous earth, the main component of diatomaceous mud, has a very low heat conductivity. It is an ideal thermal insulation material and has very good thermal insulation performance. Its thermal insulation effect is 6 times that of cement mortar with the same thickness. How to identify diatom mud in diatom coating construction manual.
