What is the difference between fluorite and quartz stone?
Quartz is a kind of physical and chemical properties of mineral resources are very stable, quartz stone quartz stone plate manufacturers are currently on the plate produced a short, the main component of the high content of quartz plate is more than 93%, so called quartz stone.
The fluorite (Fluorite), also known as fluorspar, is a mineral, its main component is calcium fluoride (CaF2), containing more impurities, Ca is often Y and Ce rare earth element substitution, in addition to containing a small amount of Fe2O3, SiO2 and trace Cl, O3, He etc.. Fluorite in nature is usually bright colored and has a lower hardness than a knife. It can be used for the preparation of hydrogen fluoride: CaF2 + H2SO4 = 2HF = CaSO4+; the artificial fluorite technology is not yet mature, is one of the optical glass for producing lens material.
