Why Crystallized Glass, not Nanoglass

Crystallized glass and Nanoglass are different. Compared with Nanoglass, here are few reasons why customers choose Crystallized Glass.

1. High Hardness.

The process of Crystallization that stone slab are heated to a temperature point  during a period of time  gives stone the ultimate strength and solidarity .  Though both Nanoglass 2, Nano 3 (there are three generations of Nanoglass) and Crystallized Glass go through twice crystallization, the time for Crystallized Glass longer and temperature higher.

2.Color diversity.

Now, only White Nanoglass in the market. However, it is easy to see crystallized glass in many colors. Beige, Spotted White, Yellow in White and White are some common colors of Crystallized Glass.

3.Beautiful pattern

There are delicate  patterns on the surface of single color Crystallized Glass if you look close enough. Take the white Nanoglass for example , it is totally white without any detail.

Looking for Bahia Blue made of Crystallized glass

One customer came to our Crystallized glass factory and wondered if we can make Bahia Blue slabs ( a precious Brazilian natural stone ) . Artificial Bahia blue samples showed by that customer was made of Crystallized glass granules by someone .

It is true that many factory has tried to fake natural stone using Crystallized glass and some nice product came out like Royal Botticino and water wave . However , it is time and money consuming from process of development to finally producing . Our factory Sanlong Minicrystal can produce the black Crystallized glass panel , but the material is too expensive to be accepted by our customer that normally we don't produce it unless the quantity is very big .

The differences between Crystallized glass and Nano glass

It is easy to mix Crystallized glass and Nano glass , though they are different in many aspects . 

1, Materials .
Materials of crystallized glass , Nano glass are different  , though they both comprise quartz sands that take up about 30% of the whole raw materials . Crystallized glass consists of soda feldspar, calcium carbonate ..., while Nano glass consists of Lithium feldspar , silicate , potassium carbonate ... 

2,Processing technology 
It takes twice melt & crystallization to produce crystallized glass from power materials to panels which is like the formation of natural granite.  Crystallized granules formed in the first furnace under high temperature will then be sent to the slab mold in the second kiln to melt and then crystallize under high temperature .  For more information Manufacturing process of Crystallized Glass


For Nano , It takes only one melt & cooling down to panels , which is more like the processing of glass ( a reason why Nano 1 breaks easily  , there are three generations of Nano glass , the hardness of next generation increased , now only Nano 3 being produced in some Chinese factories ) . The melt materials will cool down in a long slab mold under high pressure . In the end , The big slab will be cut into small slabs .  

3, Appearance .
Polished Crystallized glass has small patterns on the surface which you may not realize, while Nano glass has no details  . Though Crystallized glass has more details , it is not as white as Nano glass .  You can only find the white Nano glass in the market even in 2013 , however , colors of crystallized glass is varied . 

The other difference in appearance is crystallized glass is porous , while Nano glass is non-porous .

 Why choose artificial marble – crystallized glass ?

Many people don’t like artificial marble, they tend to think the natural is better than the artificial. While you are thinking that way , you are losing all the niceties of owning artificial marble. There is a reason for artificial marble to be invented, that is to perfect marble .

Crack is not something you should worry about when you choose artificial stone. One can break a natural marble table into two half with hands due to the crack. No natural marble will stay long without back net and strong glue. Not every kind of glue is human-friendly, so there are more to worry about.  

2, Featured with homogeneity

When it comes to artificial marble, It means you can expect every piece to look the same. Made by twice melt &crystallization, Crystallized glass is well grained and the pattern well speckled .

3, High hardness

Heavy scratch is not seen on a Crystallized counter top used for years. You can test the scratch resistance by scratching a iron peg on the surface, nothing will be left .

4, 0.01 water absorption

There is nearly no water absorption for Crystallized glass, coming from a SGS test. It will not absorb the liquid that easily like natural marble. Stains can be easily wiped out by using a wet rag with dish washing liquid .

5, Acid and Alkali resistance

No sign of etching appears on a Crystallized glass dinning- table used for years. A SGStest of Crystallized glass also proved its resistance to acid and alkali.

                                                                                                  

6, Little radiation

 There is little radiation for Crystallized glass compared with natural marble, which makes it better for pregnant women and kids. The SGS test of Crystallized glass support this point .
