The differences between Crystallized glass and Nano glass .
It is easy to mix Crystallized glass and Nano glass, though they are different in many aspects.


1, Materials
Materials of crystallized glass, Nano glass are different, though they both comprise quartz sands that take up about 30% of the whole raw materials. Crystallized glass consists of soda feldspar, calcium carbonate …, while Nano glass consists of Lithium feldspar, silicate, potassium carbonate …


2,Processing technology
Crystallized Glass is a kind of composite marble made by heating crystal granules to more than one thousand degrees in about 13 hours and then cooling down melted crystal granules. The crystallization of heated crystal granules gives CG ultimate strength and solidity. For more information Crystallized Glass Manufacturing Process


For Jade stone and Nanoglass-Nano1, It was made by pressing and cooling down molten materials. It takes less time of heating than crystallized glass, which is more like the processing of glass ( a reason why Nano 1 breaks easily, there are three generations of Nano glass , the hardness of next generation increased, now Nano 1 is not being produced in some Chinese factories ). Different from Nano 1 and jade stone, the molten materials of Nano 2 and Nano 3 would be heated for some time instead of cooling down to panels directly. In the end, The big slab will be cut into small slabs.


3, Appearance .
Polished Crystallized glass has small patterns on the surface which you may not realize, while Nano glass has no details. Though Crystallized glass has more details, it is not as white as Nano glass. You can only find the white Nano glass in the market even in 2009, however, colors of crystallized glass is varied.
The normal thickness of Nanoglass is 18mm, size thicker than 18mm bespoJaddas. Crystallized glass available in 10-30mm.
The other difference in appearance is crystallized glass is porous, while Nano glass is non-porous.


4, Application
Nano 1 (there are three generations of Nano ) is not suggested for wall cladding as it is easy to break . Nano 2 and Nano 3 has been made to be harder. Counter top made of Nano is popular considering its non-porous advantage.
Crystallized glass can be used for wall cladding, floor, counter top, column and stair.


5,Price
After Nano 3 being invented, Nano 1 is not produced in some Chinese factories. Nano-3/ is more expensive than Crystallized glass.
