Nowadays, there are various types of cabinet countertop materials on the market, and the decorative effects and performance of different materials are different. Therefore, people should pay more attention when choosing. A suitable countertop can not only enhance the overall beauty and fashion sense, but also extend the service life, so it cannot be ignored. Among numerous cabinet countertop materials, quartz stone is highly favored and respected by consumers, and has become the choice of most consumers. However, for some novice decorators, they are not very clear about what makes quartz stone countertops good, and often have doubts about whether quartz stone countertops are good or not. Next, the editor will introduce the characteristics of quartz stone cabinet countertops in detail, hoping to provide reference for everyone's selection.

1. High hardness and good wear resistance

Quartz stone is made by processing quartz sand, resin, and other minerals. The chemical properties of quartz sand are very stable, and its texture is already very hard and wear-resistant. Therefore, one of the advantages of quartz stone cabinet countertops is high hardness and excellent wear resistance. High quality quartz countertops have a hardness of up to 7.5 levels, which is higher than the hardness of ordinary knives, spatulas, and other sharp tools. Therefore, there is no need to worry about scratching the surface of the cabinet countertop and affecting the overall appearance during use.

2. No radiation, green and environmentally friendly

Although some natural marble has clear textures and good decorative effects, it often has radiation problems. Long term exposure can cause certain harm to the human body. Therefore, when choosing natural materials for cabinet countertops, everyone must pay attention to radiation issues. However, there is no need to worry about this issue with quartz countertops, as their main component is silicon dioxide, which does not emit radiation. During the processing, even if there are harmful minerals to the human body, they will be treated to control them within a qualified range and avoid harm to the human body. Therefore, another significant advantage of quartz stone countertops is that they are non radiative, environmentally friendly, and can be used with confidence.

3. Corrosion resistance, high density, easy to clean

Through the above introduction, I believe everyone already knows the main components of quartz stone. The chemical properties of silica are very stable and not easily soluble in acid. Therefore, in daily life, even if it comes into contact with beverages such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, or fruit juice, there is no need to worry about the corrosion of quartz countertops. Secondly, after undergoing complex processing, the structure of the quartz stone cabinet countertop is very compact and fine, with almost no pores, and the water absorption rate is zero. So, even if beverages such as oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, or fruit juice stay on the countertop for a long time, they will not penetrate into the interior of the cabinet. In addition, quartz stone cabinet countertops are not easily permeable and have good stain resistance, so cleaning, maintenance, and upkeep in the later stage are also very simple and convenient.

4. Resistant to high temperatures and not easily deformed

One of the reasons why quartz stone countertops are popular among consumers is their high temperature resistance and resistance to deformation. Firstly, its main constituent element is silicon dioxide, with a melting point of 1750 ℃. Secondly, even if the quartz cabinet countertop is not entirely made of silicon dioxide, after undergoing multiple complex processes, its melting point is still above 1300 ℃. So, when exposed to high temperatures during daily use, there is no need to worry about damaging the surface of quartz stone countertops. At the same time, it is also a completely flame-retardant material that can greatly improve cooking safety when used in the kitchen.

The above is the complete introduction to the characteristics of quartz stone cabinet countertops. Through the analysis of these characteristics, we believe that everyone has gained a deeper understanding of quartz stone cabinet countertops. Compared with other materials of countertops, quartz countertops have more obvious advantages and can be the first choice for everyone. However, the quality of quartz stone cabinet countertops on the market cannot be guaranteed 100% at present. Therefore, when choosing, one should not blindly believe the merchant's promotion, but should have the ability to distinguish between good and bad.
