Opie cabinet quartz stone countertops are very strong and durable, many owners reflect their own Opie cabinets have been used for many years, clothes like new, of course, this is also and the owners themselves love the cabinet, the use of the cabinet has an inseparable relationship with the correct method. But if the quality of the cabinet itself is not good, not to mention a few years, with half a year on the cracked countertop is not a few. What questions do you have about the counter tops of Opie cabinets? Below we will briefly introduce some related knowledge, I hope to have some good help to the owners.
Quartz stone countertop features
Constantly bright: quartz stone in a vacuum state by high-pressure power synthesis, its surface dense, non-porous, non-absorbent, stain resistance is extremely strong. It is difficult to penetrate the oil, sauce, vinegar, juice, coffee, etc. used in general kitchen. Scratch-resistant: quartz stone and its hardness, Mohs hardness 6 or more. Household items such as spatulas, wallpaper knives, wire balls and other ordinary iron can not be scratched, wear (but to avoid such as diamonds, quartzite equipment sandpaper, carbide and other hardness items strongly scratch the surface). Fade resistance: quartz stone pigment to mineral material-based, strong fade resistance, strong daylight for years of local contrast irradiation, the naked eye is difficult to observe the color change, basically can be considered a non-fading material.
Burning does not hurt: quartz stone basic raw materials to quartz sand particles, the melting point of more than 1300 degrees, after adding a small amount of composite materials, the surface still has a fairly high anti-burn ability. What often burns countertops in the home is the hot scorched residue from cigarette butts or pots and pans, the ability to resist these burns maintains a long-lasting finish, not to mention the phenomenon of dents, spots, etc. Non-toxic, no radiation: quartz stone in the artificial composite before the raw materials are selected and acid-washed natural quartz stone particles, does not contain heavy metal impurities, there is no radioactive topic, the entire production process is not chemically treated. Completely environmentally friendly. Corrosion resistance: has excellent acid resistance characteristics, the common acid in life is not enough to destroy it.
Because of the quality of quartz stone, its price is not destined to be low, if you buy the “quartz stone” price per linear meter less than 700 yuan, you should take a closer look at its post stone or quartz stone. 180 yuan a meter or more than 200 a meter must be artificial post stone, artificial post stone appearance is very similar to quartz stone, but the hardness and oil seepage In terms of very poor, and not environmentally friendly toxic.
To judge the quality of quartz stone is very important point is the degree of finish, because the degree of finish represents the stain resistance. The easiest way is to use a marker to draw on the quartz stone to see if it can be wiped off, can be wiped off means strong resistance to dirt, can not be wiped off means poor resistance to dirt, it is recommended not to buy. In addition, the regular manufacturers of quartz stone in the back are sprayed code, pay attention to see the logo.
Hardness is also wear resistance to identify, the easy way is to use a steel knife to scratch, with the key does not play a role in identification. Quartz stone is made of 94% quartz and 6% resin, the hardness of 7 degrees, while the stone is made of marble powder and resin synthesis, so the hardness is generally 4-6 degrees, simply put is quartz stone than the stone hard, more scratch-resistant, wear-resistant. Steel knife scratched, leaving a white mark is fake quartz stone, because the plate hardness is not as hard as steel, by the steel knife cut the surface, revealing the white inside. And pure quartz stone was scratched by a steel knife, will only leave a black mark, is the steel knife can not scratch the quartz stone, but leave traces of steel due to a black and white, true and false immediately.
