The surface and internal structure of high-quality quartz stone plates are equally dense and uniform, so the water absorption rate is low, and the permeability is strong; and the imitation quartz stone with backward production equipment and technology is often limited to the appearance that looks similar, but the internal structure is loose and porous. , Weak penetration resistance, strong water absorption and dirt penetration. When purchasing, you can pour the soy sauce on the quartz stone countertop to check whether it will bleed. The inferior quartz stone countertop will bleed in one day, and the high-quality quartz countertop will not.


3. Check the wear resistance with a knife


Quartz stone countertops are mainly composed of silica, which has the highest hardness. Quartz stones on the market are synthesized from quartz crystals and resin.
