Which Of Quartz Stone And Rock Board Is Better For The Table?
Quartz stone belongs to artificial stone, which is a new type of stone synthesized by more than 90% quartz crystal plus resin and other trace elements. As the most common material of kitchen countertop, it has obvious advantages of high hardness, strong wear resistance and good fire resistance.
Advantages of quartz products:
1. It can't be scratched. The quartz content of quartz stone is as high as 94%. Quartz crystal is a natural ore second only to masonry in nature. Its surface hardness is as high as Mohs octave, which is far greater than that of sharp tools such as knives and shovels in the kitchen. It won't be scratched!
2. Dirt free, quartz stone is a compact and non porous composite material made under vacuum. Its quartz surface has excellent corrosion resistance to the acid and alkali of the kitchen. The liquid substances used in daily life will not penetrate its interior. For the liquid placed on the surface for a long time, just wipe it with clean water or detergent with a rag, and scrape off the residue with a blade if necessary.
3. It is not old, and the quartz stone has a bright luster. After more than 30 to complex polishing processes, the surface will not be scratched by the knife and shovel, will not be penetrated by liquid substances, and will not produce problems such as yellowing or discoloration. Daily cleaning only needs to be washed with clean water., No maintenance required.
4. The natural quartz crystal is a typical refractory material with a melting point of more than 1300 degrees. The quartz made of 94% natural quartz is completely flame-retardant and will not burn due to the removal of high temperature. It also has the high temperature resistance characteristics unmatched by the artificial stone table.
5. It is non-toxic and radiation free. The surface of quartz stone is smooth without scratch retention. The dense and non porous material structure makes comedy have nowhere to hide. It can be in direct contact with food, which is safe and non-toxic.
6. Good decoration
Quartz stone combines the advantages of natural stone and artificial stone, with natural texture, smooth texture, richer colors and good decoration. Moreover, the surface is processed by dozens of complex polishing processes, which is not easy to yellowing and discoloration.
Rock plate is a large-scale new porcelain panel made of natural raw materials through special process, pressed by press, combined with advanced production technology and fired at a high temperature above 1200 ℃, which can be used for cutting, drilling, grinding and other processing processes.
Advantages of rock slab:
The rock plate has the advantages of large specification, many designs and colors, high temperature resistance, abrasion resistance, anti permeability, acid and alkali resistance, etc.
Disadvantages of rock slab:
1: Crisp
Brittleness is inherent in the rock board. If it is used for the wall, OK. However, it is the most fatal problem to be used for countertops. The kitchen countertop is a place for cooking. Cutting vegetables and bones is a common thing, and the rock plate can't stand the vibration of gravity.
2: difficult logistics and processing
Because it is relatively brittle and the vibration is more likely to break, it is difficult to transport. It is not easy to cut and the construction is difficult.
3. Rock slab joint is a difficult problem
Hard stone has one thing in common, that is, it can not be seamlessly spliced. This will have a little impact on the L-shaped cabinet table. Therefore, if you look directly at the top of the rock slab, you will always see a joint at the corner.
4. The texture of the rock plate can not be integrated
Although the green body of the rock plate is integrated, the surface texture cannot be integrated like natural marble, which will affect the places where edge grinding is needed, such as the water retaining line of the table.
