The selection requirements for the cabinet countertop should have scratch resistance, scratch resistance, high temperature resistance, anti-penetration, easy to clean, non-toxic, no radiation, etc., quartz stone is fully in line with the indisputable fact that quartz stone belongs to green decorative stone, quartz stone price is much higher than other decorative stone. However, the cracking of quartz stone countertops after contact with high temperature is a headache for many users and quartz stone manufacturers! Is the cause of the explosion entirely due to the plate itself? Let’s take a look at it.
Quartz stone table and high temperature contact why easy to crack? Quartz stone is a brittle polymer composite material, also has the characteristics of thermal expansion and contraction, there is also a certain shrinkage stress, impact toughness, elongation at break properties, when the material can not withstand the internal stress caused by thermal expansion and contraction and by serious external impact will appear burst. Winter is the high incidence season of quartz stone cracking, and the temperature difference is too large, which is the most common reason for quartz stone cracking.
The situation and reasons of quartz stone countertop explosion cracking:
- The table is cracked at the joint, and the workers are not aligned at the splicing port during installation, the glue is not evenly applied, or the curing agent and accelerator are added in the glue to make the joint suffer slight impact cracking during use.
2, corner cracking, by the wall is too tight not reserved contraction seam or two cabinets in the middle of the uneven or to adjust the level, once the impact of external force or temperature changes the table shrinkage is uneven resulting in cracking.
- Cracking at the opening of the countertop, unreserved gap between the opening and the basin and the stove is caused by uneven shrinkage of the countertop due to temperature changes. If the opening mode is right-angle opening or the opening is not polished, the cracking is caused by external impact.
4, the back water is cracked, the cabinet is not smooth, the pad is not flat or the glue is not strong.
- The center of the table is cracked, caused by high temperature, external impact, uneven cabinet or internal injury of the plate
Precautions for the use of quartz countertops in daily life, avoid direct contact with high temperature objects (quartz stone plate can withstand up to 300° high temperature), prohibit direct cutting, cutting, chopping on the countertops, it is only a cabinet countertop not a cutting board! After use should be cleaned in time, use water can, do not use wire ball oh.
After reading the above introduction, you should understand that you must pay more attention to the use of methods in life.
