Many customers struggle to differentiate between 100% acrylic solid surface, composite solid surface, and calcium powder solid surface due to their similar appearances. This lack of awareness is compounded by the fierce competition in the market, leading some customers to unknowingly purchase lower quality materials.
To distinguish between these materials, consider the following factors:
1.Surface Appearance:
100% Acrylic: Transparent with clear, layered particles and a smooth surface color.
Composite Acrylic: Less transparent with less defined color and average light transmission.
Calcium Powder Board: Dark yellow color, no light transmission, and cloudy appearance.
2.Thermoforming:
100% Acrylic: Can be bent freely at 180 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes with strong continuity.
Composite Acrylic: Bends at a small angle and easily breaks with exposed particles.
Calcium Powder Board: Cannot be bent when heated.
3.Cutting:
100% Acrylic: Produces snowflake-like debris when cut.
Composite Solid Surface: Generates more dust when cut.
Calcium Powder Sheets: Difficult to cut and hard like quartz or marble.
4.Combustion:
100% Acrylic: Produces a strong odor due to MMA resin content.
Composite Acrylic: Produces less odor when burned.
Calcium Powder Board: Does not fully burn and leaves powdery residue from calcium carbonate.
5.Chemical Experiment:
100% Acrylic and Composite Acrylic: Do not produce gas when placed in hydrochloric acid.
Calcium Powder Board: Produces carbon dioxide gas due to the presence of calcium carbonate.
By understanding and observing these characteristics, customers can make informed decisions when selecting solid surface materials. It is crucial to be able to differentiate between these options to ensure the quality and performance of the chosen material.
