Granite MTC

The test report summarizes testing performed on quartz surface samples from Shree Neelkamal Granite & Marble. Five types of tests were conducted to determine absorption, density, compressive strength, abrasion resistance, and flexural strength of the samples. Testing was also done to evaluate the resistance of the samples to various chemical substances. The samples performed well with low absorption, high density and strength values under dry and wet conditions. All samples showed no visual effects when exposed to common household, pool, and acid/base chemicals.
