The sink is mainly used for cleaning articles and drainage, and it is installed in almost every household. The kitchen has the most frequent contact with dirt and water stains, which has the most direct impact on people’s food safety. It is not the sink and faucet. The absolute optimization of cleaning and blowdown functions must be ensured.
Although the material of the sink is also steel plate enamel, ceramic, artificial stone, acrylic, crystal stone and cast iron enamel, considering that the stainless steel is easy to clean, corrosion-resistant, high-temperature and humidity resistant, it is very suitable for the kitchen working environment. Stainless steel is the most common sink material in the market at present. Its color and style are quite versatile, and it can be easily integrated into various kitchen environments. Moreover, the price of this type of sink is not very high, and it is the first choice for most families at present.
The best quality of stainless steel sink is SUS304 stainless steel, which is very good in corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance, and the quality is relatively strong and durable. In addition, compared with SUS304 stainless steel, stainless steel made of 201202 is much worse in corrosion resistance and rust resistance.
The granite water tank is very strong and wear-resistant, and its material and technology are relatively advanced. Generally, it will not be scratched by a knife. Moreover, the granite water tank can withstand high temperature, and the high temperature of 300 ° C will not damage it. It is the longest service life of these materials.
The ceramic sink is high-temperature resistant, aging resistant and has a high appearance value, which is deeply loved by young people. Although the sink made of this material is also relatively scratch resistant, it should try to avoid direct contact with hard objects and sharp knives during daily use. Ceramic sink is very heavy, so if you install this kind of sink, you must select the cabinet and table with good support in advance.
The artificial stone is rich in color, which can improve the appearance of the kitchen to a certain extent. Moreover, the artificial stone is not as expensive as the natural material, and the price is reasonable. However, this kind of water tank is not very hard in texture, and it is easy to scratch it with a sharp knife, and some hard objects will also damage it. Moreover, this kind of water tank also needs to be cleaned regularly. If it is not cleaned for a long time, it is easy to cause the accumulation of stains, which will affect the appearance and also damage the smoothness.
According to the style, the kitchen sink is divided into single basin, double basin, large and small sink, and special-shaped double basin. Combined with the cleaning nature of the kitchen, double sink is the mainstream, and some prefer large single basin because it is convenient to wash large parts such as pots.
When purchasing the sink, pay attention to:
1. The material thickness of the kitchen sink should be moderate, too thin will affect the service life and strength of the sink, and too thick will easily damage the washed tableware. Therefore, the thickness of 0.8mm-1.2mm is generally enough. In addition, the overall flatness of the stainless steel surface should be considered. If the surface is uneven, the quality is poor.
2. Generally, the water tank with large cleaning volume is practical, and the depth is about 20cm, which can prevent splashing.
3. The surface treatment of the water tank shall be beautiful and practical, and the welding joint of the water tank shall be carefully observed. The welding seam must be flat and uniform without rust, and it is better to have an overflow. Now most of them are integrally stamped. 4. The simpler the shape of the basin edge, the easier it is to take care of the water.
