Question:

Will quartz stone countertops leak?

Will quartz stone countertops leak?

Answer:

Under normal circumstances, no leakage will occur. In transportation or transportation, sometimes it is possible to break if the stress is not bad. This is because the stone is very hard and relatively brittle in texture. But installed cabinets countertops are not easy to break, so under normal circumstances will not leak.
Performance identification of quartz stone:1) look: with two different brands of models, in the sun sufficient to compare the naked eye, can compare its brightness, know its good or bad.2): with a sharp tool on the surface of quartz stone, if it is easy to draw the traces can not be wiped out, it shows that the hardness is not enough.3) bubble: soak quartz stone in easy to dye things (such as soy sauce, coffee, nicotine). After a period of time, if quartz is dyed, it shows poor permeability.4) smashing: with a certain weight of objects, quartz stone surface smashed, to see the extent of fragmentation, if the fragmentation is too much, it shows that the compactness and hardness is not enough.5) drop: a certain proportion of strong acid, alkali, drip on the surface of quartz stone, can see whether it has bubbles, if there is, then explain mixed with calcium carbonate. Of course, why should we use strong acid and strong base here, because the general situation with a small amount of calcium carbonate, if acetic acid or weak acid, it is impossible to react.
1. components: quartz stone quartz stone is a kind of high hardness of environmentally friendly composite materials of quartz, as high as 93% natural quartz (SIO2) as the main component, and 7% unsaturated resin, mineral pigments, additives and antibacterial agent mixture, under vacuum conditions in the quartz crystal, resin and trace pigments and other materials through the heterogeneous polymerization technology and pressing.2. quartz, physical and chemical properties: no radiation, no toxicity, antibacterial and environmental protection, high density, high strength, high hardness, high brightness, acid and alkali resistance, permeability and high temperature resistance, aging resistance, no deformation, no cracking.
