Granite is a common widely occurring type of intrusive, felsic, igneous rock which is granular and crystalline
in texture. This rock consists mainly of quartz, mica, and feldspar. Occasionally some individual crystals
(phenocrysts) are larger than the groundmass, in which case the texture is known as porphyritic. A granitic
rock with a porphyritic texture is sometimes known as a porphyry. Granites can be pink to gray in color,
depending on their chemistry and mineralogy. By definition, granite is an igneous rock with at least 20%
quartz by volume. Granite differs from granodiorite in that at least 35% of the feldspar in granite is alkali
feldspar as opposed to plagioclase; it is the alkali feldspar that gives many granites a distinctive pink color.
Outcrops of granite tend to form tors and rounded massifs. Granites sometimes occur in circular depressions
surrounded by a range of hills, formed by the metamorphic aureole or hornfels. Granite is usually found in
the continental plates of the Earth's crust.

Granite countertops are durable. Its dry compressive strength of 183.2 MPa, and is one of the higher hardness
of the stone, and good wear resistance. Unlike other materials, high temperature tableware burns. Periodically
properly sealed granite will be able to resist stains and fading. Properly sealed granite countertops contribute
to a lasting beautiful shiny luster maintaining granite countertops.

Features

Resistance to bacterial

Because of its texture, granite has become one of the most hygienic kitchen countertop materials.

Because is not porous, so it is not easy to breed bacteria and other kitchen dirt. Mold and mildew

will not exist. Of course, if you use granite tiles above the mud gap still exists mildew problems

and staining.

Easy to clean

Granite countertops care is fairly simple, just have some common sense. Daily cleaning and no

difference between a quick clean with a soft cloth or paper towel. Use ordinary soap and water.

Dense stone particles, low porosity, stain is not a major problem.

Hard

Its hard surface will not be scratched, unless other granite or diamonds. This is its usefulness lies.

High temperature resistance

Granite surface can be a very good heat without blistering or cracking. It can even be resistant to

the high temperature of the frying pan, without leaving any traces. But even so, the mat is good ma

Precautions

Cleaners to avoid the use of products containing an alkaline or acidic, because of the structural problems

they may damage the surface of the granite. For example, some cleaners containing ammonia, citrus acid

(lemon, lime) components, make granite countertops texture become turbid even left on the table the

circular blot.
