Quartz stone cabinet countertops are good Quartz stone cabinet countertops introduction

Quartz stone cabinet countertops are now a more mainstream countertop. Because of its many advantages, the demand is also great. Let's take a closer look at it through three aspects.

Advantages:

Quartz stone is a kind of artificial crystal made of more than 90% quartz crystal plus resin and other trace elements A new type of synthetic stone. Its main material is quartz, which is another affordable and durable countertop material after artificial stone.

Quartz stone cabinet countertops are easy to clean and sanitary countertops. In the production process of quartz stone countertops, based on the principle of 'lotus effect' and modern bionics technology, special processing is performed on the surface of quartz stone countertops, which takes into account the two major effects of beauty and hygiene. The surface is compact and non-porous, forming microscopic convexities and concavities. Compared with the traditional rough surface of artificial stone countertops (macro visible concave-convex surface), it is not easy to hide dirt and breed bacteria, and it is easier to clean.

Compared with ordinary artificial stone, quartz stone countertops have the characteristics of longer life, less discoloration, less deformation, anti-permeation, and more scratch resistance. Scrape the quartz stone countertop with a hard object such as a knife. The high-quality quartz stone plate will not be scratched. We can use cigarette butts to directly burn the surface of the quartz stone plate, but the burning of the cigarette butts will not leave any traces on the quartz stone plate. Therefore, quartz stone countertops basically do not need special maintenance, and the surface can still remain as beautiful as new after many years of use.

The high-quality quartz stone is saturated and round in color, bright in color, and uniform in particles, especially in the multi-color board, the color is uniform, smooth and clear.

Disadvantages:

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

The quartz sand content of the quartz stone plate is above 93%, the hardness is high, and the brittleness is high, and the toughness is low. When the material cannot withstand the internal stress caused by thermal expansion and contraction, cracks will appear.

The price of artificial stone is slightly higher than that of artificial stone.

Maintenance:

The heat expansion and contraction of the pot that has just finished cooking will cause changes in the internal molecules of the material, which will take a long time It will cause local yellowing and loss of luster or cracks on the countertop. It is best to place a small pot pad or shelf on the countertop to prevent the overheated pot bottom from directly contacting the countertop. Let cool for a few minutes before placing hot pots. Pay attention to regular waxing at ordinary times, which can effectively extend the life and appearance of the countertop.

Because quartz stone is very impermeable, liquid substances used daily will not penetrate into it. Liquids placed on the surface for a long time only need to be wiped with clean water or cleansing agents such as clean and bright. If necessary, use a blade to scrape off the remnants on the surface.

Most quartz stone cabinet countertops are very popular, but because the price of quartz stone plates is higher and the production process cost is higher, it is not It is suitable for all home decoration, we still have to take this into consideration when choosing it.
