With the increasingly extensive application of artificial quartz stone, the quality of the market has also been uneven. Many consumers and buyers face difficulties in selecting authentic high-quality quartz products. Below, we will provide you with a few tips to help you identify whether you are buying a poor quality quartz slab.
Identifying an inferior quartz slab product can be done in several ways:
1.First, carrying out a scratch resistance test. Use a steel knife or key to gently scrape the surface of the artificial quartz stone and observe the reaction. High-quality quartz slab has a high hardness, Mohs hardness can reach 7, which is not easy to be scratched. Authentic quartz slab’s surface should have no obvious traces or white powder after scratching. On the contrary, low-quality quartz board has low hardness and may leave obvious scratches or white powder after scratching, which indicates that its material may be mixed with more impurities and is not durable.
2.Second, conducting a corrosion resistance test. Drop white vinegar or oxalic acid on the surface of the quartz slab and observe whether a chemical reaction occurs. High-quality artificial quartz stone is chemically stable and not easily eroded by acids and alkalis. The appearance of bubbles, discoloration or dissolution on the surface of the quartz slab indicates that its corrosion resistance is poor, and it may be a poor quality product!
3.Further, performing a heat resistance test. By using a lighter in the same place on the surface of the quartz slab for a few minutes, and then carefully observe the changes in the surface. High-quality artificial quartz stones have excellent heat resistance properties, so the surface should remain undamaged after burning. In contrast, if yellow spots or cracks appear on the surface after burning, this is an indication of poor heat resistance, which may be a sign of a low quality quartz products.
4.In addition, it can also be tested for pollution resistance. Drop soy sauce and other daily seasonings on the surface of the quartz slab and leave it for a period of time to observe its penetration. Premium artificial quartz stone has dense surface, and not easy to penetrate stains. If soy sauce and other seasonings in the quartz stone surface to leave obvious traces and difficult to clean, indicating that its pollution resistance is poor, may be poor quality products.
5.Finally, check the product qualification and brand strength is also an important way to identify poor quality quartz products. Good quality quartz slab usually have third-party quality certification and national inspection reports, such as the U.S. NSF food-grade certification, SGS inspection. At the same time, choose a well-known quartz brand, factory scale strength is stronger, product quality and after-sales service is also more secure.
