Many people use quartz countertops when decorating their homes. Quartz countertops are very dirt-resistant and easy to clean at home. Marble looking quartz stone among the quartz stones is the most popular one. Next, introduce to you what are the performance and advantages of marble looking quartz stone? How does the application work?

1. Introduction of marble looking quartz stone

Marble looking quartz stone is an artificial synthetic stone made of natural quartz minerals (sand or powder) and high molecular polymer (resin) as the main materials, which are vibrated and pressed in a vacuum state.

Resin: collar benzene type resin (general purpose type), isophthalic type resin, benzoic acid resin (experimental type)

Aggregate: quartz sand, quartz powder

Pigments: organic pigments, inorganic pigments

Auxiliary: catalyst, curing agent, etc.

Proportion: 93% quartz sand, 6% resin, 1% toner and additives

Ⅰ Resin: Generally speaking, the more resin, the higher the cost and the higher the pass rate, but it will lead to lower hardness and greater bending rate, so a good quartz stone formula resin is not as much as possible.

Ⅱ Quartz sand/quartz powder:

The main functions are:

One is the filling volume

The second is to enhance the texture of the stone

The third is to enhance the mechanical properties of the stone

Inferior quartz stones generally contain calcium powder, natural stone fragments or other non-quartz components.

Ⅲ Pigment: mix and match varieties of colors to make them colorful.

Ⅳ Auxiliary: used to improve the performance of marble looking quartz stone and prolong the service life.

(2) Strong anti-pollution property: marble looking quartz stone is a solid surface material with uniform surface and inside, dense, and non-porous, manufactured under vacuum conditions. The surface has good corrosion resistance to acid and alkali in the kitchen. Clean water or a clean and bright cleaner can be wiped off with a rag, and a blade can be used to scrape off the residue on the surface if necessary.

(3) Flame retardant and high temperature resistance: marble looking quartz stone is a typical refractory material, its melting point is as high as 1300 degrees, and the quartz stone made of more than 90% of natural quartz has excellent flame retardant and flame resistance and will not be damaged by contact with high temperature. Causes burning and has high temperature resistance properties that are unmatched by artificial stone and other countertops. Even after a long period of use, the surface is as bright as a new countertop and requires no maintenance and maintenance.

(4) Non-toxic and non-radiation: marble looking quartz stone surface is smooth, flat, and free of scratches. The dense and non-porous material structure makes bacteria nowhere to hide, and can be directly contacted with food, which is safe and non-toxic. The high-quality marble looking quartz stone uses selected natural quartz crystal minerals, and its SIO2 content exceeds 99.9%. It is purified by removing impurities during the manufacturing process. The raw materials do not contain any heavy metal impurities that may cause radiation.

(5) Anti-penetration and bleeding: marble looking quartz stone products are vacuum diecast, dense and non-porous. After multiple polishing processes, high-quality composite agents and pit aging agents are added. The products have low water absorption, anti-penetration, stain resistance, and will not produce yellowing and discoloration. And other issues.

3. Advantages of marble looking quartz stone

(1) marble looking quartz stone processing dust is small. The marble looking quartz stone processing conforms to the water saw and water grinding, which greatly reduces the dust. During the installation process, there is no need to polish and polish a large area. After accurate measurement, all the processes except the on-site splicing are completed in the factory, which greatly reduces the dust on the installation site. marble looking quartz stone contains a variety of composite materials and ultra-fine quartz powder, forming a non-porous structure on the surface of the table, and the average water absorption rate is only 0.03%. The high-quality materials ensure that the quartz stone is not saturated at all.

(2) marble looking quartz stone has better stability. Strong acid and alkali resistance, corrosion resistance.

(3) The surface of marble looking quartz stone is not like marble. The surface of quartz stone with many pores does not have many pores, so it is very convenient to clean, and there is no worry that some salt and oil sprinkled on the table will cause corrosion and oil. Drops will not leave traces on quartz countertops.

(4) marble looking quartz stone looks very beautiful, because it is an artificial stone, which is also his advantage. It is very smooth in texture, rich in color, and very beautiful.

(5) marble looking quartz stone has extremely high hardness, which is scratch-resistant and wear-resistant; iron tools such as shovels, wallpaper knives, and steel balls cannot scratch it, and metal utensils used in daily households are not easy to scratch and wear. marble looking quartz stone countertops are easy to care for due to their high surface hardness.
