Quartz countertops are favored by users because they have both the texture of natural marble and practical functions such as heat resistance, scratch resistance, and penetration resistance. 

But most people don't know about quartz stone countertops, and even some professional cabinets have misunderstandings when introducing products to owners, such as: they are pure natural, can be seamlessly spliced, and can not be burned

1/ What is quartz stone countertop?

First of all, the quartz stone countertop is artificial. 

Its production process is to pulverize the natural quartz sand, and then purify it (this process removes metal impurities and avoids the radioactivity of the product).

After mixing the raw materials, quartz crystals (90%-94%), resins (6%) and trace pigments are made into large-scale plates by isomeric polymerization technology under vacuum conditions, and then the surface is polished in more than 30 processes sanded.

2/ The advantages and disadvantages of the product

advantage:

Wear-resistant and scratch-resistant

The Mohs hardness of quartz stone reaches 7 degrees, which can prevent scratches such as iron tools to a certain extent.

Not easy to penetrate, strong resistance to asexuality.

The surface is dense and non-porous, and the water absorption rate is only 0.02%. 

Generally, acid and alkali substances such as coffee, oil, and sauce cannot penetrate into it.
