| 40%PMMA(polymethyl methacrylate) + 60% aluminum powder (ATH) | Unsaturated resin (UPR) 30%~35% + filler (ATH/particles) 60%~65% + MMA 5%~10% + pigment 0%~2% | |
The technical name for artificial stone is Solid Surface Materials. It is a polymer composite material formed using organic polymer matrices such as methyl methacrylate (MMA, commonly known as acrylic or Plexiglas material) and unsaturated polyester resin (UPR). Natural stone powder, granules, pigments, and other additives are used as fillers. The material is shaped through casting, vacuum molding, or compression molding. | ||

3.Advantage | ||
| 1. After heating, it can be bent at will for various modelling. 2. It has good yellowing resistance. 3. Hardness, toughness, impact resistance and other physical properties are superior to composite acrylic 4.Heat distortion temperature：100℃ 212°F 5.Barcol hardness：55-65 | 1. Cheap price 2. Simple production process, can be produced in the manual line 3.Heat distortion temperature：60℃ 140°F 4.Barcol hardness：50-55 | |
Disadvantages | ||
| 1. Expensive 2. Complex production process, difficult to produce in the hand line | 1. Can only be small hot bending 2. Relatively poor resistance to yellowing performance 3. Hardness, toughness, impact resistance and other physical properties are worse than pure acrylic | |
differentiation | ||
| 1. Cutting the sheet when the pieces for the snowflake-like pure acrylic, pieces of powder for the composite acrylic. 2. The use of barcol hardness tester to measure the hardness of more than 60 for pure acrylic, 52 ~ 58 for composite acrylic. 3. Cut the sheet, according to the different smell to judge, acrylic issued a fresh fragrance, composite acrylic issued a stench. | ||

6.Disadvantages of alternative products | ||
Natural Stone | Natural granite has rich texture, is elegant and hard, but the surface of granite has many holes, which makes it easy for stains to penetrate into the interior of the granite, making it unclean and hygienic. The surface of granite is cold, and people feel cold when touching the surface. At the same time, it is difficult to repair the joints after scratches occur on the surface of granite. This makes it easy for mold to breed in the cracks, which is harmful to human health. In addition, granite is radioactive and poses a hazard to human health; its high density and mass make it difficult to move and transport. Therefore, natural granite has many significant disadvantages compared to artificial stone. | |
wood | Due to the shortage of forest resources, the use of wood is limited; wood is easy to burn and should not be placed with flammable items; at the same time, wood is not resistant to penetration. In addition, the strength of wood is extremely poor, and it is generally not suitable for making larger or mechanically required furniture. Wood therefore has a number of significant disadvantages compared to engineered stone. | |
Stainless steel | Stainless steel has beautiful colors and noble textures, but it is expensive, difficult to process, monotonous, and not rich in color, and cannot meet people's personalized needs. Stains penetrate the surface of stainless steel, posing a threat to human health; the surface of stainless steel is cold and feels bad to touch. At the same time, scratches on stainless steel are difficult to repair and are easily corroded by chemicals. For example, a stainless steel countertop may rust if it is exposed to salt, so you should also avoid placing items such as soy sauce bottles directly on the countertop. | |
ceramic tile | Ceramic tiles come in a variety of styles, with good wear resistance, smooth and glossy surfaces. However, tiles often have gaps after being spliced, which are difficult to clean and breed mold, endangering human health; at the same time, the surface of the tile is cold, and the countertop made of tile has bubbles and gaps. If colored liquids penetrate into them, it will cause stains or discoloration. Therefore, dyes or hair dyes should be avoided from being placed directly on the countertop. The "crack" defect of ceramic floor tiles is one of the common main defects. It not only affects the quality of the product itself, but also brings great inconvenience to people's daily use and care. In addition, the water absorption rate of ceramic tiles is low, which makes the product damp and unhygienic. | |
Glass | Glass sheets have a very beautiful appearance and have a crystal-like luster after polishing; but glass sheets are easy to break, difficult to protect and transport, and difficult to process, so production and processing are restricted; ordinary glass sheets are easy to crack, break, deform, and have unstable colors due to their low hardness, poor heat resistance, and low elongation. | |
Rock board | Made of natural raw materials through special processes, with the help of a press with a capacity of more than 10,000 tons, and fired at a high temperature of 1200℃, it is a new type of porcelain material that can withstand cutting, drilling, grinding and other processing processes. Although the rock slab has a variety of colors and high hardness, the production process is relatively complicated and has high requirements for the production process. It is easy to collapse the edge during cutting, and has high technical requirements for construction operators. During transportation, large-sized and thin rock slabs are easy to be damaged, and high requirements for transportation and packaging are required. |
