What is a tile?
A tile is a piece of artificial stone whose length and width are different and its thickness is about a few millimeters. One side of the tile is the clay side and its skeleton, and the other side or the glazed tile has a polished and shiny surface.
What is ceramic?
Ceramic is a name that refers to all inorganic and non-metallic solids. Materials that are obtained from the combination of clay and feldspar (a type of crystalline mineral composed of aluminum, sodium, potassium, and calcium silicates and found in igneous rocks) are obtained at high heat and become cohesive by a glass-like mass. They are called ceramics. Ceramics are very hard and non-solvent and impermeable.
The difference between tiles and ceramics
The main difference between tile and ceramic is its strength. The tile is used in the body due to its greater elegance and lower press weight, but the ceramic is used on the floor due to its heavier press and higher strength. They do not contain moisture and are used. Due to the high percentage of water absorption compared to ceramics, tiles are suitable and more comfortable for working on the wall and at a suitable height. . But a special type of ceramic called porcelain can be used in open spaces as well. Ceramic water absorption is very low and porcelain is about zero. For this reason, it is very difficult to use them on the wall and height.
