A novel infrared radant glaze was developed by introducing the infrared radiant powder into glazing as a functional additive. Infrared radiant characteristics of the powder and the glaze were investigated. The optimum content of infrared radiant powder in glazing was ascertained to be 5% . The infrared radiant glaze exhibits significant antibacterial and antifungal Junctions due to the thermal effect of infrared radiation. Antibacterial percentages of the glaze reach 91% - 100% when Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis are used as model bacterium respectively, while antifungal percentage of the glaze exceeds 95% when Penicillum citrinum is used as model fungus.展开更多
