Compared to ordinary ceramics or tempered glass plates, which one is more scratch resistant and drop resistant

---

In the industrial and high-end manufacturing fields, microcrystalline ceramics have superior scratch and drop resistance compared to ordinary ceramics and tempered glass. Its Mohs hardness can reach 7-8 levels, with excellent impact and thermal shock resistance, perfectly overcoming the limitations of traditional materials such as fragility and easy scratching. As a professional custom manufacturer, we provide multi specification microcrystalline ceramic plates to meet the demanding application requirements in extreme environments.
Faced with complex working conditions, users often face difficulties such as material wear and tear, sudden cooling and heating, and easy cracking. Our microcrystalline ceramic products, with their extremely high surface hardness and excellent toughness, effectively solve the problem of surface scratches caused by high-frequency friction, while significantly reducing the risk of fragmentation caused by mechanical impact or thermal stress, providing durable and stable protection for precision equipment.

Deep comparison of material performance
When evaluating the durability of plate materials, scratch resistance and impact resistance are the two core indicators. Microcrystalline ceramics form a uniform and dense microcrystalline structure through special high-temperature melting and crystallization processes, demonstrating overwhelming physical advantages:

Comparison of Scratch Resistance Performance
Microcrystalline ceramics: The internal grains are small and evenly distributed, with a Mohs hardness of up to 7-8 levels, close to sapphire glass. Daily metal friction or industrial dust are difficult to leave marks on its surface, and it remains smooth and polished for a long time.
Tempered glass: The Mohs hardness is approximately 6-7 levels. Although the surface has undergone compressive stress treatment, it is still prone to scratches when encountering dust or hard metals containing quartz particles.
Ordinary ceramics: The Mohs hardness is usually between 6.5-7 levels. Although it has a certain degree of wear resistance, the surface glaze layer is easily damaged under long-term high-intensity friction.

Comparison of drop resistance and impact resistance performance
Microcrystalline ceramics: combining the toughness of glass with the hardness of ceramics. Its microcrystalline structure can effectively disperse external impact forces, has excellent thermal shock resistance, and is less prone to cracking in the face of severe temperature differences or heavy object impacts.
Tempered glass: Its impact strength is 3-5 times that of ordinary glass, but there is a risk of self explosion, and the edges are prone to overall fragmentation when subjected to force.
Ordinary ceramics: have high brittleness and low impact resistance, and are prone to fracture under tensile stress or accidental drop.

Application value and comprehensive customized services
The excellent performance of microcrystalline ceramic plates has created significant value for users in high-end equipment manufacturing, precision instruments, and special environmental applications. It not only extends the maintenance cycle of the equipment, reduces downtime costs caused by plate damage, but also enhances the overall quality and safety of the product.
To meet the personalized needs of different industries, we provide full chain specification and size customization services:
Customization of Size and Thickness: Supports customization of large boards ranging from a few millimeters to several meters, with a flexible and adjustable thickness range to meet various precision assembly requirements.
Alien processing: providing high-precision cutting, punching, chamfering, and edge polishing services, perfectly adapting to complex equipment structures.
Surface treatment: Matte, polished or high gloss surfaces can be customized according to application scenarios, taking into account anti slip, anti fingerprint and optical transmittance requirements.

Addressing application challenges
In practical applications, users often face challenges such as the cracking of high-temperature furnace plates and the tendency for high-frequency operation surfaces to flower. Microcrystalline ceramics, with zero water absorption, strong resistance to acid and alkali corrosion, and high temperature resistance of up to 500 ℃, can easily cope with various extreme working conditions.

Customer application case: plate upgrade of a high-end commercial kitchen equipment manufacturer
Application background: A globally renowned commercial kitchen equipment manufacturer, which originally used traditional ceramic plates in its flagship high-end high flame induction cooker products. However, in the high-intensity use environment of the kitchen, traditional ceramic plates have exposed many problems: not only is their scratch resistance poor, but they are also prone to leaving scratches when dragged by iron pots. In addition, when the pot is shaken or the soup overflows, causing sudden cooling and heating, the plates frequently crack, leading to a large number of post sales complaints.
Solution: The customer has requested customized high wear resistance and thermal shock resistant microcrystalline ceramic plates from us. We have customized a microcrystalline ceramic plate with a thickness of 5mm and a surface treated with nanoscale precision grinding, and completed high-precision irregular hole processing.
Application effect: After replacing the microcrystalline ceramic plate, the continuous fault free operation time of the equipment has been improved by more than 40%. During a year long high-intensity testing, there were no visible scratches on the surface of the plate, and the structure remained intact after multiple rapid cooling and heating cycles from 200 ℃ to room temperature. This successful case not only helped the customer significantly reduce the cost of consumable replacement, but also provided reliable material support for the development of their new generation equipment.
