Uyini umehluko phakathi kwe-Natural Quartzite ne-Engineered Quartz?

I-quartz enjiniyela kanye ne-quartzite yemvelo kokubili ukukhetha okudumile kwama-countertops, ama-backsplashes, izindlu zangasese, nokuningi.Amagama abo ayafana.Kodwa nangaphandle kwamagama, kuningi ukudideka ngalezi zinto.

Nasi ireferensi esheshayo nesebenzayo yokuqonda kokubili i-quartz ne-quartzite yobunjiniyela: ukuthi ivelaphi, yenziwe ngani, nokuthi ihluke kanjani.

I-quartz yobunjiniyela yenziwe umuntu.

Ngisho noma igama elithi "quartz" libhekisela kumaminerali emvelo, i-quartz yobunjiniyela (ngezinye izikhathi ebizwa nangokuthi "itshe lobunjiniyela") iwumkhiqizo owenziwe.Yenziwe ngezinhlayiya ze-quartz ezihlanganiswe ne-resin, i-pigments, nezinye izithako.

I-quartzite yemvelo iqukethe amaminerali, futhi akukho okunye.

Wonke ama-quartzite enziwe ngamaminerali angu-100%, futhi angumkhiqizo wemvelo kuphela.I-quartz (i-mineral) iyisithako esiyinhloko kuwo wonke ama-quartzite, kanti ezinye izinhlobo ze-quartzite ziqukethe amanani amancane amanye amaminerali anikeza umbala wetshe kanye nohlamvu.

I-quartz yobunjiniyela iqukethe amaminerali, i-polyester, i-styrene, i-pigments, ne-tert-Butyl peroxybenzoate.

Inhlanganisela yangempela yezithako ku-quartz yobunjiniyela iyahlukahluka ngohlobo nombala, futhi abakhiqizi baveza amaphesenti aphezulu amaminerali kuma-slabs abo.Izibalo ezivame ukucashunwa ukuthi i-quartz ekhiqiziwe iqukethe ama-93% ama-quartz amaminerali.Kodwa kunezixwayiso ezimbili.Okokuqala, u-93% ubukhulu, futhi okuqukethwe kwe-quartz kwangempela kungaba ngaphansi kakhulu.Okwesibili, lelo phesenti likalwa ngesisindo, hhayi ivolumu.I-particle ye-quartz inesisindo esikhulu kakhulu kune-particle ye-resin.Ngakho-ke uma ufuna ukwazi ukuthi ingakanani i-countertop surface eyenziwe nge-quartz, khona-ke udinga ukukala izithako ngevolumu, hhayi isisindo.Ngokusekelwe ezilinganisweni zezinto ku-PentalQuartz, isibonelo, umkhiqizo ucishe ube ngu-74% wequartz yamaminerali uma ulinganiswa ngevolumu, nakuba kungu-88% we-quartz ngesisindo.

I-Quartzite yenziwe ngezinqubo ze-geologic, ngaphezu kwezigidi zeminyaka.

Abanye abantu (ngibandakanyiwe!) bayawuthanda umqondo wokuba nocezu lwesikhathi se-geologic ekhaya noma ehhovisi labo.Wonke amatshe emvelo awukubonakaliswa kwaso sonke isikhathi nezenzakalo ezalibumba.I-quartzite ngayinye inendaba yayo yokuphila, kodwa eziningi zafakwa njengesihlabathi solwandle, zase zingcwatshwa futhi zacindezelwa edwaleni eliqinile ukwenza i-sandstone.Khona-ke itshe laphonswa lajula oqweqweni Lomhlaba lapho laqhubeka khona futhi lacindezelwa futhi lashiswa libe yitshe le-metamorphic.Ngesikhathi se-metamorphism, i-quartzite ihlangabezana nezinga lokushisa endaweni ethile phakathi kuka-800°futhi 3000°F, nezingcindezi okungenani ezingamaphawundi angu-40,000 iyintshi yesikwele (kumayunithi wemethrikhi, lokho kungu-400°kuze 1600°C kanye nama-MPa angama-300), phakathi nezigidi zeminyaka.

I-quartzite ingasetshenziswa ngaphakathi nangaphandle.

I-quartzite yemvelo isekhaya ezinhlelweni eziningi, kusukela kuma-countertops kanye ne-flooring, emakhishini angaphandle kanye ne-cladding.Isimo sezulu esibi nokukhanya kwe-UV ngeke kuthinte itshe.

Itshe elenziwe ngobunjiniyela lingcono kakhulu ukushiywa ngaphakathi endlini.

Njengoba ngafunda lapho ngishiya ama-quartz slabs amaningana ngaphandle izinyanga ezimbalwa, ama-resin asetsheni elakhiwe ayoba phuzi ekukhanyeni kwelanga.

I-quartzite idinga ukuvalwa.

Inkinga evame kakhulu ngama-quartzite ukuvala uphawu okwanele - ikakhulukazi emaphethelweni nasezindaweni ezisikiwe.Njengoba kuchaziwe ngenhla, amanye ama-quartzite anama-porous futhi kufanele kuthathwe ukunakekelwa ukuze uvale itshe.Uma ungabaza, qiniseka ukuthi usebenza nomqambi onolwazi nge-quartzite ethile oyicabangelayo.

I-quartz eyenziwe ngobunjiniyela kufanele ivikelwe ekushiseni futhi ingakhuhlwa kakhulu.

Ochungechungeni lweizivivinyo, izinhlobo ezinkulu ze-quartz ezinobunjiniyela zamelana kahle ukuze zingangcolisi, kodwa zonakaliswa ukukhuhlwa ngezinto zokuhlanza ezilumayo noma amaphedi okukhuhla.Ukuchayeka ezitsheni ezishisayo nezingcolile zonakalise ezinye izinhlobo ze-quartz, njengoba kuboniswe ku-aukuqhathanisa ukusebenza kwe-countertop materials.
