What is an artificial stone?

Artificial stone is a combination of natural stones with other additives (polymer, resin). The main raw materials are artificial stone, cement and polymer additives. The main reason for the light weight and easy installation of these stones are these polymer compounds. With the use of artificial stone, the concerns related to the variety in design and color, as well as the use of different stones for different construction uses, have been resolved. Artificial stones have many and varied uses. These stones are used as flooring, exterior stone, building and paving. These stones are also used in landscaping.

Artificial stone compounds

Compositions in artificial stone include natural stone along with other additives such as cement, clay, polymer materials, etc. The presence of any of these compounds in artificial stone is not unwise. For example, the cement present in the artificial stone compounds increases the lifespan of the stone. Or they use clay to prepare the stone and make it resistant to sunlight. But in general, artificial stone consists of the following 4 materials: water cement gravel Concrete additive

The difference between artificial stone with natural stone

In terms of cost, artificial stone will cost less than natural stone due to its production style and, in addition, features such as thickness and less weight. On the other hand, artificial stone has more potential in combining different materials. This feature has made it possible to use this stone in various applications.

Construction of artificial stone

There are many types of artificial stones. Some of the materials used in these stones may be the same, but ultimately all these stones have significant differences in their composition.

Types of artificial stone

Due to the high variety of artificial stones, they cannot be summarized in only one specific category.

Cementation

In some cases, cement plaster stone and polymer mosaic may be introduced as two different types of stone. While cement plast and polymer mosaic are the same and the only difference between the two is the higher resistance that the nano cement plast stones have. In this category, artificial stones, control materials, polymer material (for stone strengthening), mineral pigments, nano materials (stabilizer), natural grain style and other various mineral materials are used. Artificial cement plastic stone or polymer mosaic is used in different industries and products: Colored floors Different building facades Decorative view wind stone Grid view stone pillars Antique mosaic Stone fences Beautification of green space Street tables Stairs

Artificial Corinne Stone

It consists of aluminum trihydrate, bauxite minerals and polymethyl methacrylate resins and pigments. This stone has many features such as being anti-acid and very malleable. Corian stone's high plasticity has made it to be called a hard heat stone. Corian stone has many uses and can be easily used in many places, especially in the kitchen.

Artificial quartz stone

Under press, vacuum, vibration and polishing, they are produced by special polymer materials, special mineral aggregates and quartz aggregates. Artificial quartz stone has a very high resistance to pressure and has very little absorption against moisture. This style of stones has anti-scratch ability and is very strong against acid and base.

Applications of quartz artificial stone

Building Office flooring Airport the stairs inside the elevator tombstone As open stone with high consistency

Artificial marble

Synthetic marbles do not allow light to pass through and the reason for that is the use of a lot of fillers in stone compositions. The composition of this stone includes all kinds of minerals and nano polymer resins, which are produced in the form of monochromatic stones, marble and granite. Also, marble has a high resistance against acid and base except for sulfuric acid.

Artificial stone thickness

There are many types of artificial stones and each of them is composed and made by different materials; Therefore, there is no specific figure for the thickness of artificial stones, and this figure will vary according to the type of artificial stone. In general, the standard considered for the thickness of artificial stone is between 14 and 18 mm and 3 cm.
