Consumers to the market to buy decoration materials, building materials, often because of the lack of basic understanding and knowledge of experienced fraud trap. To avoid this from happening, today, China Stone Xiaobian will explain to you the basic knowledge of five kinds of stone.

1, Stone

Stone to create a good visual effect of hardness with softness. Mainly on the building materials market is currently granite, marble, slate. Glass of crystal clear, elegant style of its people in front of it away. Become an integral part of home decoration decorative materials.

2, granite

Is igneous rock, also known as acid crystallization plutonic rocks, is the most widely distributed in igneous rocks as a rock, by the feldspar, quartz and mica composition, dense rock hard. The composition of the silica and account for about 65% -75%.

The so-called igneous rock that is underground magma eruption of lava or volcanic crystallized rock condensation. In the silica content of igneous rocks, feldspar content determines the nature and the nature of stone. When the silica content of greater than 65% belong to acid rock, the rock CKS feldspar, plagioclase, quartz and other minerals to form the basic crystal, showing material like structure, called granite. Threshold, cabinet tops, granite suitable for use outdoors on the ground. Which the cabinet table is best to use dark granite. Market reference price :200-500 yuan / square meter.

3, Marble

Marble is any original crustal rocks through the crust formed by high temperature and pressure metamorphic rocks. Forces to promote the role of crustal rock types of the original qualitative change, that the original rock structure, structure and mineral composition change. After a qualitative change in the formation of new rocks called metamorphic rocks.Mainly by calcite marble, limestone, serpentine and dolomite composition. The main ingredient in calcium carbonate, accounting for about 50%. As the marble generally contains impurities, and calcium carbonate by carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, carbides, the role of water vapor, but also easy to weathering and erosion, leaving the surface very quickly lose their luster.Relatively soft marble of a general nature, which is relative to the granite in terms of. In the interior decoration, TV table, windowsill, marble interior floors, etc. for use. Market reference price :200-500 yuan / square meter.

4, artificial stone

Artificial stone is unsaturated polyester resin as the binder, together with natural marble or calcite, dolomite, silica sand, glass powder and other inorganic powder, and the right amount of flame retardants, color, etc., by mixing ingredients, porcelain cast, vibration compression, extrusion molding methods such as curing made. Artificial stone is based on the actual use of natural stone problems come up, it is moisture-proof, anti-acid, high temperature, put together have made great progress in terms. Of course, the artificial man-made things naturally have shortcomings, the general nature of man-made stone is obviously inadequate, the texture is relatively false, it is more practical for cabinet and other high demand for places, and some harsh environments, such as kitchen, bathroom, etc. ; bay windows, decorative ground, stressed the place, used it less. Another factor impeding the use of artificial stone is the human factor. As the artificial stone production process vary widely, performance, features do not correspond exactly to the advantages mentioned above, given that you do not purchase the performance of artificial stone. Imports of man-made stone currently on the market in performance is relatively good. Such as imported marble allows sanding scratches the surface, the user will not reassert themselves to handle it met, and many made of artificial stone obviously can not support this flow of talent, the more polished the more rotten. Purchase of artificial stone, it is best to acquire a bad model to test, for example, pour soy sauce or oil as well as extravagant loss test. Market reference price :250-400 yuan / square meter.

5, culture stone

Natural Cultural Stone: Natural stone is the exploitation of natural culture stone, which the slate, sandstone, quartz stone, processed as a decorative building materials. Natural culture stone material hard, sharp color, rich texture, styles, with compressive strength, abrasion resistance, fire resistance, cold resistance, corrosion resistance, low water absorption. Artificial culture stone: artificial culture stone is the use of calcium silicate, gypsum and other materials crafted. It mimics the appearance of natural stone texture, with a light texture, rich color, not mold, non-flammable, easy to install and so on. Market reference price :1.1-3.6 yuan / piece.
