Several methods for identifying artificial stone acrylic countertops and common resin sheets:

Acrylic Artificial stone countertop: It is a kind of artificial stone countertop that is vacuum cast or molded by natural ore powder, high performance resin and natural pigment: mineral filled polymer composite material (referred to as solid surface material or solid plate, commonly known as artificial stone).

 There are many artificial stone brands on the market, and the price ranges from RMB 200/m to RMB 3,500/m. The difference in price depends mainly on the quality of the resin and pigment in the artificial stone and the difference in formulation technology.

 The resin content of the artificial stone determines the final properties of the product, such as hardness, wear resistance and strength. Therefore, the formulation technology of the resin and the functional additives contained in it are essential, and must be imported high-performance resins.

 The environmental friendliness of the artificial stone determines the non-toxicity of the artificial stone, which is the main factor to ensure that the artificial stone countertop can directly contact with food, so it is necessary to use imported environmentally friendly raw materials. However, if artificial stone is produced according to the above criteria, according to the cost analysis, artificial stone of less than 1,000 yuan on the market is difficult to guarantee the quality of its products.

 Acrylic countertops in acrylic countertops have: high-density interior without small holes, no stains, oil stains, smooth surface, easy to clean and limberness, can make different shapes, easy to repair, no traces, in line with the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) Standard, can be in direct contact with food surface scratches can be polished with fine sand 1200-1500, can keep new continuously.

Imported artificial stone countertops like South Korea's Staron, the United States DuPont Corian is the top product in the countertop, from the use of effects, visual effects to high environmental protection (can directly contact food), is currently the best countertop materials, for some manufacturers It is said that its domestic artificial stone countertop contains 40% acrylic, which is purely a kind of hype, and it is a behavior that misleads customers. At present, most of the acrylic artificial stones produced in China are composite acrylic sheets. No one can do the same as DuPont Corian, which guarantees 40% acrylic components in artificial stone. Therefore, ordinary resin sheets are used in the market to counterfeit. More, consumers must choose carefully.

Tell everyone the tips of this choice

Several methods for identifying acrylic countertops and common resin sheets:

 1. Take a small piece separately, soak it in water and take it out after 3 minutes. Acrylic has no peculiar smell and the resin board has an odor.

 2. The resin plate contains stone powder, which can be written like chalk on the concrete floor, and continues to rub with odor, but acrylic does not.

 3. Sanded off the surface wax of the acrylic and resin sheets with sandpaper, and then add soy sauce. After half an hour, the acrylic is impermeable, and the resin board will have obvious soy sauce stains.

 4.take each piece, and cover both the half area, irradiate in the sunlight for 50 minutes, the acrylicity do not change significantly, and the resin plate will be discolored.

 5. During the processing, the acrylic sheet appeare as a snowflake-shaped piece, and the resin board make a pungent powder dust.

 At present, there are more 40% composite acrylic countertop brands on the market, and the actual acrylic content is different. Generally speaking, 40% of the acrylic countertops on the market have actual contents of 35%~38%. The characteristics of pure acrylic countertops are that the production process is the same as that of composite acrylic, but it is more acid-resistant, alkali-resistant, impact-resistant, anti-fouling, anti-bacterial and more environmentally friendly than composite acrylic. In the material which used to make the countertop, it contains more than 30% acrylic component, and the higher the acrylic ratio, the milder the hand feel, tending to plastic, orelse the colder. It has strong plasticity and can be cut, bent, wear-resistant and durable. When you purchase pure acrylic countertops, you can use the hardness of the countertops of the cabinet company (you can have a light stroke to see if there are scratches), feel, table top, stitching seams, and no drops sink hang on the countertop. (avoid water droplets on the door panel and cabinet), the surface of the countertop is protected by arc grooves (right angle shape is not easy to clean).take those to do the comparison.
