Why is quartz stone countertops easy to burst when exposed to high temperatures


The proportion of quartz stone in home decoration decorative stone is getting higher and higher, especially the use of cabinet countertops is common in home decoration, and the problems exposed by it are becoming more and more obvious, such as explosion and partial discoloration. Today, the editor will explain the reasons for the cracking and discoloration of the quartz stone countertops.


Quartz stone plate is composed of more than 90% natural quartz and about 10% color materials, resin, and other additives for adjusting bonding and curing. Artificial quartz stone is formed by negative pressure vacuum, high-frequency vibration, heating and curing, its texture is hard, and its structure is compact. It has abrasion resistance (Mohs hardness above 6-7) and pressure resistance (density 2.0g) that other decorative materials cannot match. /Cubic centimeter), high-temperature resistance (temperature resistance of 300 ℃), corrosion resistance, anti-permeation does not contain any pollution sources and radiation sources, green and environmentally friendly artificial stone. Many people here are wondering why quartz stone can withstand temperatures up to 300°, why would a hot container be placed directly on the table to cause cracking and discoloration? Because of the 10% resin solvent in the raw material of the quartz stone slab mentioned above, it is prone to thermal expansion and contraction when exposed to high temperatures. Due to sudden local heating, such as when the expansion joint is not reserved during the installation of the table, it is easy to crack or mark the bottom of the container. Discoloration.


The quartz stone manufacturer reminds all users to avoid direct contact with the hot container on the countertop and uses heat insulation pads.
