Type of artificial marble

In addition to the extremely high requirements for the consolidation and environmental protection of the panels, the marble furniture also has strict control over the radioactivity of the stone. For a long time, people mistakenly think that marble furniture will have radiation, and it is inevitable that there will be some scruples when purchasing. In fact, the natural marble has low radioactivity and does not cause harm to the human body at all, and the high level of radioactivity is artificial marble furniture.

Artificial marble

The main raw material for the consumption of artificial stone is petroleum derivatives, but with the rapid increase in the price of oil on the international market (especially the domestic oil price only rises and falls), the consumption cost of artificial stone has also risen. In order to reduce the cost, some artificial stone consumers use inferior raw materials in the process of artificial stone consumption, using harmful substances such as formaldehyde and benzene, and more directly, participate in organic solvents, and use heavy metals such as lead or cadmium. Inferior inorganic pigments, in order to reach the lowering system to form the pursuit of profit.

At present, there are quite a few artificial slate in the market containing excessive amounts of harmful substances such as benzene, formaldehyde, lead, organic acids, etc. A common characteristic of such plates is the pungent chemical odor (especially during processing) ), the color is unnatural chemical color. This inferior artificial stone plate containing formaldehyde and benzene will give off a pungent atmosphere during cutting. After the plate is processed and processed, the excess formaldehyde and benzene will remain. Benzene will volatilize continuously in 3-5 years. The volatilization of benzene and formaldehyde and exposure to heavy metals will directly contaminate the food of the entrance. This harmful substance not only passes through the human respiratory system but also directly enters the digestive system. And the speed is more obvious.

Therefore, it is especially important to choose artificial stone with excellent quality. In the winter, especially in the north, the home blockade air is not fluent, the indoor temperature is higher, and it will accelerate the volatilization of such 'toxic board' benzene and formaldehyde, and damage the human body. More serious!

Since the artificial stone contains chemical synthetic substances, some of the inferior production artificial stones are harmful to the human body, have low hardness, are afraid of scratching, are afraid of ironing, and are afraid of coloring. Therefore, we must carefully identify when purchasing, to avoid the purchase of inferior production of artificial stone.
