Nowadays, quartz stone has become a very popular decoration stone in home decoration, which is favored by many owners. However, there are many quartz stone brands on the market, and even small workshops with inferior quartz stones are mixed, which leads to many accidents during the use of quartz stone. So what harm does the inferior quartz stone have? Let me explain to you today, I hope I can help you!
Hazard 1: cause respiratory diseases
Inferior quartz stone is not hard enough to lose its own wear resistance, and the final product is easily broken. Moreover, during processing, it is easy to drop the powder. Stone processing workers and users are likely to inhale too much powder. Cause respiratory diseases;
Hazard 2: Harm the digestive system
Some inferior quartz stone production process will use very inferior inorganic pigments containing heavy metals such as lead or cadmium, and directly add organic solvents; if this inferior quartz stone is used all the time, the heavy metals contained in it will endanger our health;
Hazard 3: Formaldehyde may cause cancer
The truly excellent quartz stone production process requires high equipment and requires high temperature and high pressure and up to 20 processes. Many small manufacturers cannot achieve this level. Some unscrupulous merchants have been producing in order to reduce costs and process requirements. In the process, a glue containing formaldehyde is added to act as a solvent, but the produced quartz stone is relatively inferior; the inferior quartz stone will still retain excess formaldehyde after being processed into a countertop, and it will always evaporate. Strong formaldehyde smell, if used for a long time, is likely to cause cancer.
