Is quartz really toxic? After reading can rest assured to choose

Quartz stone countertops in our country through more than ten years of rapid development, has now become the first high-grade decoration artificial stone stone. Quartz stone has many advantages such as wear-resistant, scratch resistance, high temperature resistance, anti-penetration, non-toxic and so on to enter our market, and quickly occupy the cabinet countertop market, with the continuous improvement of China’s quartz stone manufacturers production technology and capacity, now has been applied to the entire field of building decoration.

As the application field of quartz stone continues to expand, the market demand is also increasing, resulting in market chaos, quality is uneven, and even the emergence of “fake quartz stone”, recently there are many rumors that quartz stone toxic, have a certain harm to health, these in the end are true? Xiaobian take you to continue to look.

First of all, we must understand what is the real quartz stone, quartz stone is made of 93% quartz sand and 7% resin, cured by vacuum high pressure high vibration heating. The content of quartz sand in the quartz stone plate shall not be less than 90%, and less than this value is unqualified.

Look at the raw material, the filler quartz, belongs to inorganic minerals, the main component is silica SiO? It is a translucent or opaque crystal, generally milky white, with a hard texture. Quartz is a kind of mineral resource with very stable physical and chemical properties. Unsaturated polyester resin is one of the most commonly used thermosetting resins. It is a linear polymer formed by condensation of saturated dibasic acid, unsaturated dibasic acid and dibasic alcohol. After the dilution of crosslinked monomer or active solvent, the resin solution with a certain viscosity is referred to as UP. Now we use a lot of bowls, plates, chopsticks, cups and other daily necessities are produced using resin.

So the real quartz stone plate is without any toxins, but there are some businesses for the benefit of adding other raw materials in the production of plates. In the purchase of quartz stone plate, should be carefully selected, do not covet cheap and buy the “toxic plate”.
