Natural stone and artificial stone
First, the stone color is more natural stone texture and color are naturally formed, the formation of natural texture chaos. Artificial stone texture is to imitate the natural stone texture of its very regular lines, clear color. Regularity is very strong two stone weight comparison; the same specifications, natural stone than the weight of artificial stone heavier. The three is the stone wear resistance; artificial stone of its wear resistance is not natural stone compression, good wear resistance. Four is the stone itself acid and alkali resistance; with hydrochloric acid test, drop a drop in the natural marble surface will appear rich foam, artificial marble will not have obvious bubble appear. The five is the permeability of the stone itself; the natural stone is stronger than the artificial stone. The color of the liquid droplets on the surface of natural stone, the color will penetrate into the interior of the stone, the traces of clearing is not easy; and the permeability of the artificial stone. A color penetration is slow, if not promptly clean traces. Six is the stone's own life; the same specifications of the plate, the life of natural stone is far more than the life of artificial stone.
Natural stone is used as large sculptures, reliefs, railings, arch, tombstone, a wide range of applications, commonly used for outdoor landscape of artificial stone is generally a man-made stone in the form of a play, the role of artificial stone plate has been applied in many aspects of our lives.

In addition, because there is a natural stone pores, so do the best choice when the cabinet of dark granite, such as Chinese black, black gold sand, Ji'nan green, blue linen, etc., to prevent infiltration of color oil.
