Widely distributed geographically, and often found mixed with sand in soils of a loam type mixture of clay, silt and sand, clay is an earthen material, moldable when wet, brittle when dry, and permanently hard when baked or fired. Clay types vary throughout the world, and each type of clay possesses a unique combination of special properties which makes some clays better suited for one kind of ceramic over another. The correct clay for a particular purpose can be created by blending clays and adding other materials, but using the wrong type of clay can result in expensive production problems such as crazing or warping of the tile itself. Chalky clays have been preferred for many kinds of ceramic tiles because, when fired, they produce a white body which is desirable for decorating. Materials such as ground-up fired clay (grog) can be added that helps aerate the clay and harden it and prevents warping, speeds firing and reduces shrinking.
There are several methods used for making ceramic tiles: extrusion; compaction or dust-pressing; cutting from a sheet of clay; or molded in a wooden or metal frame. Encaustic tiles, which were made by dust-pressing are inlaid into the tile body, rather than surface-applied. Quarry tiles are extruded, but most ceramic floor tiles are made from refined and blended ceramic powders using the compaction method, known as dust-pressing.
Once formed, tiles are dried slowly and evenly to avoid warpage and then fired in a special kiln. Higher temperatures produce denser tiles with harder glazes. Most ceramic tiles require only one firing to achieve low porosity, but some especially highly decorated tiles are fired more than once. Non-vitreous and semi-vitreous tiles are fired at lower temperatures and are much more porous.
