Sintered Stone is a ceramic plate made of quartz, feldspar, and other materials, and has the advantages of high surface hardness, scratch resistance, corrosion resistance, stain resistance, and good waterproof performance. This type of ceramic plate is large in size and light in weight and is widely used in sintered stone wall backgrounds, sintered stone tables and sintered stone countertops, and other fields.

Definition of Sintered Stone
The making of Sintered Stone
Sintered Stone is defined as the process of compacting a solid substance without melting it to the point of liquefaction through heat and pressure. Sintered Stone occurs naturally in mineral deposits or a manufacturing process in which atoms in the material diffuse through the particles, fusing the particles and forming a state. So, by definition, porcelain, ceramics, and Sintered Stone are all "Sintered Stone" materials. But there are some differences between these products. What is called "Sintered Stone" in China is generally called "Sintered Stone" in European and American countries, that is, Sintered Stone? By definition, Sintered Stone also belongs to Sintered Stone materials like ceramics and tiles. But Sintered Stone makes a big difference in the initial manufacturing process. The main products of Sintered Stone are the clay, feldspar powder, and silica, which are rolled by a press with a system of more than 16,000 tons and fired in a kiln at a high temperature of 1200-1500 °C.
The tile is usually made of very dense clay with water absorption of 0.5% or less. Sintered Stone is fired from clay with a water absorption rate lower than 0.5%. Both are fired at extreme temperatures in kilns, typically 800°C-1200°C. Tile is divided into glazed and unglazed. Glazed tiles are baked twice, giving them durability and shine. Some people refer to unglazed tiles as "full body" (i.e. the base is the same color). However, most tiles used for larger areas have a pattern applied to the surface (usually during glazing), giving them more style options, reduced porosity, and increased durability. Sintered Stone is bigger than ceramic tile, the regular size of Sintered Stone is 3200*1600/3000*1500mm, and the regular thickness is 3/6/12mm. Sintered Stone will also have a lower water absorption rate of just 0.02%. And the flatness of Sintered Stone is relatively higher than that of similar Sintered Stone products, and the light is reflected without causing visual dizziness. In general, ceramic tiles, ceramics, and Sintered Stone are all Sintered Stone materials by definition, but they are different.
