Does the quartz stone plate itself have anti-explosion cracking?

Quartz stone has become an indispensable decorative stone for home decoration. Its scientific name is polymer composite material, also known as synthetic stone, which belongs to artificial stone products. It is made of 93% (not less than 90%) quartz crystal and 7% resin and other binders by artificial die casting, because the quartz sand content in the quartz stone plate is higher than 90%, so it is called quartz stone manufacturers.

The surface of the quartz stone plate is smooth and dense without holes, the density of the plate is 2.3-2.6g/ m3 (15mm thickness), the water absorption rate is 0.02% and almost zero, so the quartz stone has wear-resistant, scratch resistance, high temperature resistance, anti-penetration, anti-cracking, etc., which is what we often hear in the purchase. Today, let’s talk about the resistance of quartz stone to cracking!

People buy quartz stone to a large extent is attracted by its anti-cracking, and some sellers will also do small ball anti-cracking experiments for buyers on the spot. However, why do we often have so many cracking cases in use, although quartz stone has anti-cracking performance, it does not mean that it will not burst, its anti-cracking is definitely superior to other stones.

Why does quartz rock burst? Because quartz stone is a brittle polymer composite material, it also has the characteristics of thermal expansion and contraction, and there is also a certain shrinkage stress, impact toughness, elongation at break and other mechanical properties, when the material can not withstand the internal stress caused by thermal expansion and contraction and is subjected to serious external impact, it will crack. There are also human factors, quartz stone processing in the opening of the edge phenomenon, so that the plate appears small cracks in use leading to cracking. Quartz stone installation is not reserved expansion joints will also lead to cracking.

Although quartz stone occasionally cracks and breaks, quartz stone is still a good choice for decorative stone. As long as you choose a good quartz stone and avoid unnecessary damage, I believe that quartz stone can still be used for a long time without problems.

How to avoid it in use? Note that the surface should not be locally heated for a long time, and do not use heavy objects to impact. No matter how good the product has its weaknesses, only daily maintenance can extend its service life!
