What you don’t know about Nanoglass

Nanoglass is popular all over the world now. Many stone finders are looking for Nanoglass in China, but they know little about it. Here I will list few things you need to know about Nanoglass.

1. Nanoglass is different from porous Crystallized Glass.

Many people mix Porous Crystallized Glass with Nanoglass. However, these two artificial stones are different in many aspects like the raw materials, manufacturing process, color and appearance. Take the manufacturing process for example, Nanoglass is made by melt, molding and pressing, it doesn’t go through the process of crystallization which is possible under temperature of more than 1000 ºC, that is why Nanoglass is easy to break compared with Porous Crystallized Glass. Here, you can see the manufacturing process of Crystallized Glass to understand more.No holes visible inside Nanoglass if the quality very good, but porous crystallized glass has holes by the side. 

2. Nanoglass is different from artificial quartz stone.

Nanoglass is different from quartz stone like Caesar Stone. Polymer resins are needed to glue artificial quartz stone together, however resins are not needed for Nanoglass and Crystallized Glass.

3. Not just White for Nanoglass.

Other colors are possible for Nanoglass, but the cost and manufacturing difficulty will be increased. So, many factory as I know only produce the white one.

4. There are three generations of Nanoglass.

People who are familiar with Nanoglass know the difference of Nanoglass 1, Nanoglass 2 and Nanoglass 3. Nanoglass 1 is very fragile. It was said Nanoglass 1 fallen down from the ceiling and hit one American man in America. Nanoglass 2 and Nanoglass 3 was developed to be more harder. Now, many factories only concentrate producing Nanoglass 3 which is expensive than Nano 2 and Nano 1 .
