Quartz stone or artificial stone for kitchen countertops which one is good 2014

Personally, I think each has its own points. However, whether you choose to use artificial stone or artificial stone, it is best to use it in the middle to upper quality.

The main features of point quartz stone (e.g. Clegg quartz stone).

1. Not afraid of scratches: The natural quartz crystal content in Clegg is as high as 93%, and the hardness reaches Mohs, which is the world's hardest natural stone second only to diamonds.

Never age: Clegg contains high-quality compounds and expensive anti-aging additives, and its shiny surface has undergone more than 40 complex polishing, trimming and other processes, even after a long period of use.

2. Non-radioactive: Clegg's main material is mainly natural quartz crystal particles (because the heavy metal elements included in the whole natural quartz ore cannot be removed), and it has undergone strict beneficiation and washing and impurity removal and purification treatment to ensure that it does not contain any metal impurities, so Clegg does not have any radioactive and other problems that endanger human health.

3. Anti-fouling and anti-corrosion: Clegg is manufactured under vacuum conditions.

1. Dense and non-porous decorative surface material, which has excellent corrosion resistance to the acid and alkali of the kitchen, and the dense texture structure makes the liquid substances used in daily life unable to penetrate its interior, and only needs to be cleaned with water after each use.

4. Not afraid of high temperatures: Clegg's main body composition natural quartz crystal is a typical high melting point material, its melting point is as high as 1600, and the quartz stone made of it can withstand 300 high temperatures, so Clegg will not burn due to contact with high temperature, and is currently the best decorative surface material with the best temperature resistance.

5. Anti-mildew and antibacterial: Clage contains active antibacterial factors, which can effectively prevent bacterial growth and kill all kinds of stubborn bacteria. This antibacterial factor is added to the material structure of the product during the production process and placed inside the product, which can be stored in the product for a long time without being washed away, and the antibacterial effect is long-lasting.

6. Direct contact with food: All Clegg products have passed the certification of the world's most authoritative NSF American Health Organization, and are non-radiation, completely environmentally friendly, non-toxic and harmless decorative surface materials, which can be in direct contact with food.

Good quality artificial stone (e.g. DuPont Monterey artificial stone) has excellent quality:

1. He has both the natural texture and solid texture of marble, the smooth and delicate ceramic and the easy processing of wood, which can be processed into any conceivable shape and can achieve real seamless splicing; The color is rich and gorgeous, the color is made of natural pigments, and the countertop color made of natural pigments has good stability, long-lasting gloss, and will not fade, even if it is under the scorching sun for a long time, its color will not fade; Monterey Artificial Stone does not have any capillaries, mold, bacteria and other microorganisms cannot survive, and it will not be permeated by any liquid, and even stubborn stains can be easily removed with detergents.

The above is the answer for you from Beijing Shizhiyun artificial stone processing factory.

Artificial stone is better, and quartz stone is not easy to maintain and corrode if it is not treated.

Advantages and disadvantages of the material of the countertop of the home kitchen cabinet.

The stiffness of quartz stone is not as high as that of artificial marble, but the toughness is much higher than that of artificial marble, and it is not easy to crack, so most people choose quartz stone for cabinet countertops. I hope my answer can help you.

If you consider the question of whether quartz countertops are good from all aspects, of course, they are still closer to our lives than artificial stone.

Generally speaking, quartz stone is made of fine broken glass and quartz sand through high temperature and high pressure synthesis process, its advantages are mainly reflected in the kitchen countertop when you bump and bump on weekdays, will not leave scratches on the countertop, and if you put a very hot pot directly on the countertop it doesn't matter, it has good heat resistance, and it is also very good to clean the surface of the oil. Therefore, quartz stone can not only be made into different styles and types of cabinets, but also can be laid on the wall of the kitchen, so that the later cleaning work will become much more convenient.

The artificial stone countertop is made of natural ore powder added to the color masterbatch that affects the appearance, and the acrylic resin that enhances the hardness and thermal insulation effect is made by special treatment of high temperature and high pressure, and its advantage is that due to the high-pressure compaction treatment of ore powder, its pores are much smaller than quartz stone, and there will be no water stains and water marks on the countertop for a long time. And compared with the advantages of quartz tables, there are more acid resistance advantages on this basis, and in terms of **, countertops made of artificial stone are more affordable. However, artificial stone cannot be used to lay walls, only to make countertops.

And because the weight of artificial stone is relatively large, the pressure on the cabinet is also very high.

Which is better, cabinet quartz countertops or natural stone countertops?

1. Different raw materials: artificial stone: it is a mineral-filled polymer composite material made of natural ore powder, acrylic, high-performance resin and natural pigment through vacuum casting or compression molding; Quartz:

It is made of about 93 quartz crystal particles, plus pigments, resins, glues and antibacterial agents, and then vacuum at high temperature and high pressure.

2. Plasticity: artificial stone: there are almost no restrictions on design, unlimited creativity and unlimited performance. Quartz stone: It uses a higher content of quartz crystals as the main structure, which makes its texture harder and tighter, not easy to make special shapes, and its plasticity is lower than that of artificial stone.

3. Anti-staining, anti-scratching, artificial stone: easy to produce scratches, easy to bleed, need to pay attention to maintenance when using. Quartz stone: It has the characteristics of wear resistance, scratch resistance, and anti-penetration that other materials cannot match.

4. Restorative, artificial stone: after damage, it can be repaired by repairing, grinding and polishing to prolong the service life. Quartz stone: Quartz stone is not as easy to repair as artificial stone because of its hardness. Under normal circumstances, quartz stone does not need to be taken care of.

5. Heat resistance, artificial stone: not heat-resistant, not high-temperature resistant, it is recommended not to put the heat-generating utensils directly on the surface, you can use a heat insulation pad. Quartz:

Although it is more heat-resistant than conventional materials, it is recommended that you do not place heat-generating utensils directly on the surface for long-term use, and you can use a heat insulation mat.

6. Quartz countertops are more expensive than artificial stone countertops.

Advantages and disadvantages of the material of the countertop of the home kitchen cabinet.

Advantages of quartz countertop: non-toxic and non-radiation, environmental protection and health, high temperature and corrosion resistance, wear resistance and scratch resistance;

Disadvantages of quartz countertops: they cannot be spliced seamlessly;

By comparing the above advantages and disadvantages with other material countertops, you can judge the quality of quartz countertops.

Of course, quartz stone is much better, but it should be noted that if the funds are enough, the following liner should be made.

Artificial stone countertop, no gaps, will not breed bacteria, easy to take care of and other characteristics, Guangzhou Yongya is good at building materials.

Quartz stone cannot be bent at will, there are obvious seams, it is easy to breed bacteria, and it is not easy to take care of.

It depends on the individual needs! Artificial stone has good plasticity and beauty, can be spliced seamlessly, the texture is warm, and the high temperature resistance of 120 degrees is afraid of scratches, but scratches can be repaired after polishing and grinding, easy to be dirty and easy to penetrate, and need to be taken care of!

Quartz stone has high hardness, not afraid of scratching, 800 degrees of high temperature resistance, dirt resistance, not easy to penetrate, color optional, but the splicing gaps are visible, and the texture is cold!

Compared with the two, the ** of quartz stone is more expensive, and the problem of kitchen countertops can be seen on Aiju.

Marble:

It is based on natural stone, and the advantages of use: durable, the material color is quartz stone, and artificial stone cannot be manufactured. Its disadvantages: the stone is highly radiant, and there are holes in its interior, which is easy to mold.

Artificial stone: cheaper and softer; The disadvantage is that the material is soft and easy to scratch, and the anti-leakage performance is poor, and it is easy to grow plum, easy to be polluted, its fire resistance is not high, and the resin content is high.

Quartz stone: not easy to scratch, its main content is 95% of quartz sand (silica), its mineral texture is hard, Mohs hardness is, comparable to the hardness of diamond, not easy to scratch, and has a certain sterilization and disinfection effect. Metal objects should not be scratched.

Not susceptible to contamination, quartz stone is produced under vacuum, and its interior and exterior are new composite density non-porous plates. The surface is corrosion-resistant, and stains or yellowing marks can be removed with detergent or a cleaning towel. In daily cleaning, a simple wash with clean water is sufficient.

Not easy to burn, quartz stone is a high degree of high temperature resistance, its fire resistance point is about 1300 degrees Celsius, 93% of the stone quartz contains complete flame retardant, high temperature resistance, will not cause food poisoning because of stone firing.

It is recommended that the kitchen countertop is best to use quartz stone, which is healthy, environmentally friendly, durable and beautiful!

1. The processing difficulty is different.

Artificial marble is artificially made by certain technical means, and artificial marble is easy to process and shape; Quartz countertop, the hardness is too strong, not easy to process.

2. **Different.

Artificial marble is cheap, and quartz is slightly higher than other stones.

3. The degree of high temperature resistance is different.

The artificial marble material is soft, easy to deform, easy to scratch, non-permeable, easy to mildew, easy to pollute, high resin content, and not resistant to high temperatures.

Quartz stone is not easy to scratch, high temperature resistance, burn injury, anti-aging, non-fading, long-lasting beauty, anti-bacterial, anti-poison, long-lasting bright surface, non-toxic and non-radiation.

Quartz also belongs to artificial stone, and artificial stone belongs to the large category, which includes many sub-categories. They are all artificial stone made by equipment. However, people are accustomed to calling ordinary calcium powder plates or aluminum powder plates, composite acrylic and other stones artificial stones, and the quartz stones are listed separately.

Generally speaking, there are five categories of artificial stone, ordinary board, crystal jade plate, aluminum powder plate, composite acrylic board, pure acrylic board, and quartz slate.

Home improvement stone countertops generally include artificial stone and natural stone, natural stone because of its mineral heavy metal radiation, the best application in the open indoor or outdoor, such as hotels, bank lobbies or squares.

Artificial stone is roughly divided into artificial acrylic stone and artificial quartz stone.

There is no good or bad between acrylic stone and quartz stone, the composition is different, and the characteristics are relatively different, so when purchasing, you should be clear about which characteristics of the table you value more, and choose acrylic or quartz stone.

The advantages of artificial acrylic: seamless splicing, changeable shapes, diverse and soft colors, and easy to repair problems. After using it for too long, it can be polished again and shiny as new.

Disadvantages: The hardness is slightly worse than that of quartz stone, such as rough objects rubbing on the countertop, which is easy to destroy the brightness of the countertop. Composite acrylic can withstand high temperatures up to about 90 degrees, and pure acrylic can withstand high temperatures of 120 degrees. And do not contact with overheated objects for a long time.

Advantages of artificial quartz stone: compared with other artificial stones, it is resistant to high temperature and wear.

Disadvantages: single shape, can not do complex modeling, problems and bumps are not easy to repair. Because of the high hardness and density of quartz, it cannot be spliced seamlessly, and it is not easy to make complex shapes.

Whether it is artificial acrylic stone or artificial quartz stone, the material composition determines the quality, not quartz stone is better than artificial stone, like acrylic stone, the quartz stone market is also mixed, users in the purchase of stone, to compare manufacturers and product composition. The seller must show the test report of the product and the after-sales certificate.
