Distinguish Real and Fake Quartz Stone: Cheap-Buy Kitchen Table is a Fake Quartz

The price of quartz stone countertops are similar, but do not look at the price is almost the same, but quality of ambry quartz stone countertops have many secrets. Actually is very simple to distinguish real and fake quartz stone countertops, as long as the simple four methods, let's learn it together!

The simplest way is to look at the price, because the quality of high-quality quartz stone, its price is doomed not low, if you buy the "quartz stone" per price less than usd100, it is necessary to take a closer look at the granite or quartz stone. usd30 a meter or more than usd35 meters must be composite marble stone, the appearance is very much like quartz, but the hardness and permeability is very poor, and not environmentally toxic.

Here below is the judgment of four methods of quartz stone countertops and cabinets, is really very simple, hurry up!

Judgment method 1: See
To judge the quality of quartz is an important point is the degree of finish, because the finish is representative of the anti fouling property. The easiest way is to use a mark pen on a quartz stone to draw a look, see if you can erase, can wipe off the stain resistance is strong, can not rub off on the poor resistance, it is recommended not to buy.

In addition, the regular manufacturers of quartz are printing on the back, pay attention to see the signs.

Judgment method two: Row
Hardness is wear resistance identification method is simple, with knife row, with a key role not identified. Quartz stone is made of quartz of 94% and 6% of resin, hardness up to 7 degrees, and Shi Gang is the marble powder and resin synthesis, so the hardness is generally 4-6 degrees, quartz stone is harder than granite, has more scratch resistance and abrasion resistance.

Scratch the table with steel knife, if it leave white print is fake quartz stone, because plate hardness was inferior to that of steel, steel knife cut the surface, exposing the inside white. And for pure quartz stone, leaving only a black mark is knife row is real quartz stone, but left traces of steel caused by, one black and one white, true and fake stand now.

Judgment method three: Burn
Quartz stone due to the characteristics of its own material determines the which is resistant to the characteristics of high temperature, below the temperature of 300 degrees it will not have any effect, there will be no deformation and fracture; composite marble because it contains large amounts of resin, so under the condition of high temperature particularly prone to deformation and the phenomenon of burning performance.

Judgment method four: Acid
With a tablespoon of white vinegar inverted in the composite marble and quartz stone countertops, after 30 seconds, if there are many tiny bubbles that is false quartz stone. Because of the fake quartz stone in calcium carbonate will react with white vinegar bubble. This kind of table top price is low, easy to aging, cracking, absorption, the service life is short.
