In general, inferior artificial stone mainly has the following problems and hazards: The product has a short aging cycle, poor surface gloss, imperfect colors, capillary pores, soft texture, easy scratches and deformation, poor sanitation, and insufficient environmental protection.


details as follows:


(1) On the surface, the surface of the high-quality product is bright and shiny after polishing, and the color is pure. The texture of the natural stone is touched by hand and there are no pores; the surface of the inferior product is dark, the smoothness is poor, and the color is not pure. Glare and discomfort, feeling astringent with hand touch, pores (straying at 45 degrees to light, pores like needles).


(2) High-quality products have strong hardness and mechanical strength, scratching the surface with the sharpest hard plastic will not leave scratches, poor product texture is soft, easy to scratch, and easy to deform.


(3) Quality products are easy to polish. When processing and cutting, inferior products emit a pungent taste. There are many brands of artificial stone on the market and they are very complicated. How can we identify the quality of the stone?


First, fall,. Look at its hardness and strength, this one has done experiments on its own. Take a piece of material, there are 20 * 20 size on it, and hard to fall on the cement floor, the quality of artificial stone will fall into a lot of smashing small pieces, the best quality broken into two or three pieces, and if the force is not enough, Can also bounce from the ground.


Second, burn. Take a slender strip of artificial stone and put it on fire. The quality of the artificial stone is very easy to burn. It is also very flaky. The artificial stone of good quality cannot be burned unless it is supplemented with combustion-supporting material. Will be extinguished automatically, the reasons are as follows: good quality artificial stone powder part is aluminum hydroxide with three water molecules, so it has good flame retardant properties, poor quality of artificial stone powder part of calcium hydroxide (lime powder), can not Flame retardant.


These two methods are relatively simple. In addition, there are many ways to identify the advantages and disadvantages of color, texture, luster, pores, particles, etc. In addition, some equipment and instruments can be used, but it is difficult for non-professionals, so please everyone. Or try the above two methods.
