　　 First of all, the high hardness of quartz countertops is its biggest advantage. Some materials made into cabinets will be easily scratched, but quartz stone countertops will not be like this. Compressed by vacuum, the hardness of quartz stone is as high as 7.5. Everyone knows that the highest hardness is ten, so quartz The stone will not be scratched easily. The raw material of quartz stone is a material with a higher melting point, so quartz stone can withstand high temperatures. Although it is not a natural stone, after a special process, the quartz stone also feels like a real stone.

　　 quartz countertops also have the advantages of not fading and easy to clean. After going through multiple processes, the harmful substances in it have already been cleared, and the cabinet made can be operated with food materials on it. The pigment of quartz stone is mainly mineral pigment, which is the same as natural stone, and it also has the problem of not discoloring easily and not fading. Some countertops will be broken, but quartz stone will not, because of its high elasticity, it will not be easily broken. Daily maintenance is also very simple and convenient, and it can be done with ordinary detergents.

The shortcomings of 　　 quartz countertops are few, and the most obvious shortcomings are not easy to process, and the price is high. The so-called everything has two sides, so the high hardness causes the shortcoming of difficult processing of quartz stone. Another is that if the quartz stone is damaged by strong external pressure, it is not easy to repair it. One of the biggest disadvantages is that the price of quartz stone countertops is relatively expensive, after all, there are so many production processes.

　　Quartz stone countertops such as purchase

　　 1. The quartz stone with good weight is produced by the high pressure of the press, and the quartz stone with poor weight is produced by casting and producing heavy pressure. The plate produced by the machine has a higher density, so the quartz stone of the same size will be heavier. The quartz stone content also ranges from 80% to 94%. The higher the quartz content, the better the quality of the quartz stone countertops.

　　 2. The thickness of quartz stone for cabinet countertops is 1.2 cm and 1.5 cm. Because the hardness of quartz stone is high but it is more brittle than artificial stone, it is recommended to choose 15 cm thick quartz stone, but many manufacturers actually The real plates produced by the edge ball are only 14% or even 13.5%. Responsible manufacturers will not save this 1%. Therefore, it is recommended not to buy quartz stone countertops that do not really reach 15%.

　　3. Hard objects such as keys are scratched with quartz stone. The main component is quartz sand. Quartz sand is also silicon dioxide. In nature, the hardness is basically second only to diamonds. If it is a really good quartz stone, there will only be a line after scraping with the key, and it will be less obvious after scrubbing. Quartz stone countertops containing calcium powder and other inferior materials will have marks and white powder after being scratched with a key.
