What is the difference and selection between natural marble, artificial marble and quartz stone?

1. At present, the commonly used stone materials in home decoration mainly include natural marble, artificial marble and quartz stone

2. The advantage of natural marble is that it feels cool, the texture is natural, and it has luster. Its material design is quartz stone, which cannot be made of artificial stone. Its disadvantages are that the stone has chromatic aberration, high radiation, holes in its interior, and is easy to mildew. At present, natural marble is rarely used in kitchen countertops or places with oil (because the density of natural materials is uneven and loose, it is difficult to clean once it encounters dirt

3. Artificial marble: It is made of unsaturated polyester resin as the adhesive, natural marble or calcite, dolomite, silica sand, glass powder and other inorganic powder, as well as appropriate flame retardant, color, etc., by mixing ingredients, porcelain casting, vibration compression, extrusion and other methods. The advantages of artificial stone are low price, fine texture, seamless splicing, health and environmental protection, and easy processing and modeling. The disadvantages are that the material is soft, easy to deform, easy to scratch, not impermeable, easy to mildew, easy to pollute, high resin content, and not resistant to high temperature

4. Quartz stone, also known as artificial quartz stone, is a kind of artificial stone. The quality of quartz stone is directly related to the content of resin. The higher the content of quartz stone and the lower the resin content in quartz stone, the better the quality, the closer it is to nature, and the less easy it is to deform. Experts pointed out that when the content of resin in quartz stone is more than 10%, its corresponding technical indicators will decline accordingly. At this time, quartz stone can no longer be called real quartz stone. Advantages: It is not easy to scratch, resistant to high temperature, burns, anti-aging, fadeless, durable and beautiful, anti bacteria, anti-virus, durable and bright surface, non-toxic and radiation free. The disadvantage is that the price of artificial stone is slightly higher. Because the quartz stone table is too hard, not easy to process, and its shape is too single, there is a little gap when splicing

5. Quartz stone is generally 15mm thick, while artificial marble is 12mm thick. There is no good or bad material. It depends on where you use it. If it is a cabinet, quartz stone is preferred, but artificial stone is easy to be beautiful in shape
