Solar Reflectance Index (SRI)

1980-11
Report n C181067
Page number 4
FRITTA, S.L.
Castellón, March, 8th 2018
C181067 1/4

1. Background
In March 2018, the Instituto de Tecnología Cerámica (ITC) received from FRITTA , S.L. three tiles
with the following references:

 Tile 1: Regular tile.

 Tile 2: Cool tile.

 Tile 3: Terrazzo

The determination of the solar reflectance index (SRI) according to the standard ASTM E1980-11,
of the three tiles was requested.

2. Experimental

2.1. Solar reflectance index determination (SRI)


Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) was determined according to the standard ASTM E1980-11 “Standard
Practice for Calculating Solar Reflectance Index of Horizontal and Low-Sloped Opaque Surfaces.”

Thermal emissivity at ambient temperature was measured with an emissometer SSR-ER V6 by


Devices & Services Company, calibrated against standards of known emissivity.

To determine solar reflectance and solar absorptance a solar spectral reflectometer SSR-ER V6 by
Devices & Services Company were used. Both parameters were calculated according to the standard
ASTM G173-03.

Absorptance of the surface of a material, , is its effectiveness in absorbing radiant energy. It is the
fraction of the incident radiation absorbed by a surface. Absorptance depends on the color and
texture of a surface and its value varies with the wavelength of the incident radiation (the spectral
distribution of the irradiation). There are different absorptances, depending on the spectral
distribution of irradiation. The most common are solar, visible and thermal absorptance. Solar
absorptance represents an integrated average over spectral solar irradiation, comprising the visible,
near infrarred and ultraviolet spectral regions. Solar absorptance decisively influences the
temperature reached by a surface irradiated by the sun.

For opaque materials, absorptance ( and reflectance (ρ ) are related by

 + ρ= 1

where  is the absorptance and ρ the reflectance, hence knowlewdge of a property implies
knowledge of the other.

3. Results
Tables 1 and 2 show the solar reflectance index (SRI) values of the tiles for the three convective
coefficients detailed in the standard ASTM E1980-11 wich correspond to low-, medium- and high-
wind conditions. Solar reflectance (ρ), solar absorptance () and thermal emissivity (ε) are also
included. The SRI values of the tile “Terrazzo” in Table 1 were calculated with the mean values of
solar reflectance (ρ) and solar absorptance (), as the tile has not a homogeneous color.

Regular tile 0.67 0.33 0.82

Cool tile 0.79 0.21 0.83

Terrazzo (mean value) 0.58 0.42 0.86

Six solar reflectance measurements were taken for the tile “Terrazzo” and a significant difference
between the resulting values was observed. This is due to the fact that the “Terrazzo” surface is not
homogeneous, as can be observed in Figure 1. It is worth noting that 43% of solar irradiation is in
the visible range of the spectrum, so solar reflectance depends on surface color.

Table 3 shows the solar reflectance index values (SRI) calculated with the obtained maximum (0.62)
and minimum (0.53) solar reflectance values from the six experimental measurements done.

Description of system boundaries


Cradle to grave and module D (A + B + C + D)

Allocation and cut-off rules


In this cradle-to-grave LCA study, a cut-off rule of 1% for the energy use (renewable and non -renewable)
and 1% of total mass in those unitary processes, whose data is insufficient, have been applied. In total,
more than 95% of all mass and energy inputs and outputs of the system have been included, excluding
the not available nor quantified data. The principle of modularity in the allocation of environmental loads,
i.e. that they apply where they occur, and the "polluter pays" principle have been followed.
The excluded data are the following:
o Diffuse particle emissions to the atmosphere during the transportation and storage of
powdery nature raw materials.

PAGE 10/31
o The recycling and reuse processes of the waste generated throughout the ceramic tile life
cycle that is going to be part of another system, based on PCRs

o Machinery and industrial equipment production.

o Long-term emissions have not been considered.

Furthermore, allocations have been made on a production-weighted average basis, both in mass and
in m2 of rated output.

Electric mix
Arabia Saudi mix in2021: 99.92% fossil fuel (60.89% oil, 39.01% gas and 0.03% coal) and 0.07% solar
energy (Ritchie et al., 2020).
Climate impact of electricity production: 0.78 CO2 eq./kWh.

A1-A3 Product Stage


Raw materials supply and transport (A1 y A2)
The raw materials required for the ceramic tiles manufacturing are classified as: plastic raw materials
and non-plastic or degreasing raw materials. Specifically, the raw materials included in the composition
of the support are clays, feldspars, carbonates, sands and unfired and fired ceramic scraps.
Regarding decoration raw materials, the most used in the formulation are the following ones: quartz,
kaolin, alkaline feldspars, nepheline, calcium carbonate, dolomite, zircon, wollastonite, calcined alumina
and ceramic frits.
The ceramic frits are insoluble glasses, prepared in an external company by complete fusion of their
original raw materials, called “frits”. It is estimated that around 50% of the raw materials used in the
glaze applied on the ceramic tiles are submitted to fritting process.
The raw materials used have different origins according to their nature and properties. All raw materials
for the ceramic body are transported over distances of less than 1000 km. The materials for the
decoration are processed in specialized companies located in Spain and India.

PAGE 12/31
Manufacturing (A3)
The preparation of raw materials for the ceramic body starts in the Alfanar Factory for Ceramic and
Porcelain facilities with a mixture preparation, wet milling and subsequent spray drying to obtain
granules.
The procedure of the manufacturing process is the following: the spry-dried powder is discharged in
storage hoppers and with a feed system based in conveyor belts with weight control, this granule is sent
to the forming stage by uniaxial dry pressing, carried out by hydraulic or oleodinamic presses. This is
the most indicated method to control the pressing cycle.
The pieces formed are placed in a continuous dryer to reduce their humidity, duplicating or triplicating
their mechanical resistance, which allows for their subsequent processing.
The tiles coming from the dryer are covered with one or more thin layers of engobe and glaze, which
are applied over the ceramic body through different techniques. This treatment is used to confer the
product surface a series of technique and aesthetic features, as impermeability, ease of cleaning,
brightness, colour, superficial texture, chemical and mechanical resistance.
Firing is the most important stage of the ceramic tiles production process, as it is when the pieces,
previously shaped, experience a fundamental modification of their features, resulting in a tough, water
and chemical resistant product. The ceramic pieces are subject to a single firing single-deck roller kiln.
Once the piece is fired, in some cases mechanical treatments such as cutting and grinding are applied
to provide new effects.
Once the quality controls are met, the classified pieces are packaged in primary cardboard packs and
wood pallets. Finally, they are covered with film LDPE.

A4-A5 Construction Process Stage


A4 Transport
Product distribution is as follows: 94% in KSA and 6% exported, mainly to Jordan.
For road transport, a 27t truck classified Euro 6 has been considered, in distances of 1000km and
1600km, respectively.

A5 Product installation and construction process


Once the product is unpacked, it is installed. According to the PCRs for ceramic tiles, it has been
established that the application of mortar is required for installation.
Glue mortars are cementitious adhesives consisting of a mixture of hydraulic binders, mineral fillers and
organic additives, which only need to be mixed with water or liquid addition just before use. They consist

PAGE 13/31
of a mixture of white or grey cement, mineral fillers of siliceous and/or limestone nature and organic
additives: water retaining agents, water re-dispersible polymers, rheology modifiers, fibres, etc.
The waste derived from the packaging of the pieces is managed separately according to the
geographical location of the installation site. Otherwise, 1% of product losses have been considered at
the installation stage.
