What is the difference between a glass water cup and a crystal water cup?

What is the difference between a glass water cup and a crystal water cup?Seeing this question, if there are friends who have been following the editor's article for a long time, they will have doubts, because the editor said in the previous article that crystal cannot be used as a material for the production of water cups.Because crystals contain radioactive substances and heavy metals, long-term use of water cups made of crystals will cause irreparable damage to the body.The crystal water cup mentioned here is actually an artificial crystal water cup.


What is the difference between glass water cups and artificial crystal water cups?

Yesterday, the editor specifically talked about the main materials of glass water cups on the market in detail again.Among the daily necessities currently circulating in the market, as long as the glassware is mainly soda lime glass, medium borosilicate glass and high borosilicate glass.The difference between these materials will not be repeated here.If you want to know more, please read the previous article or video of the editor.Which of these materials are artificial crystals? None of the above materials are artificial crystals.


We don't see natural crystals in many places or in various videos.Bright and crystal clear, natural crystal has been used as a symbol of wealth in many regions and dynasties in the long river of history.Therefore, it is inevitable that there will be many merchants or consumers who want to use crystal water glasses to show their taste and value.However, because natural crystals are harmful to the human body when making water cups, and the quality of natural water cups required to make water cups and the size to meet production are very scarce, people began to use artificial crystals for production and processing.


The appearance of artificial crystals was not created because of the market demand for crystal water glasses.As for the detailed reasons, everyone will know by searching, and the editor will not show off his knowledge here.


Artificial crystal is processed again after the glass solution.Except the internal texture of artificial crystal is obviously different from that of natural crystal, the cleanliness, transparency and hardness of the crystal are very similar to those of natural crystal.At the same time, because the crystal has good thermal conductivity, the water cup made of artificial water cups will feel cold in the hand, but the glass water cup will not feel this way.


The hardness of artificial crystal is much greater than that of glass, so the production of artificial crystal water cups is also more difficult than ordinary glass water cups.But it is precisely because of the high hardness of artificial crystal that in the production of crystal glass water cups, the wall thickness of the water cup should not be too thin.If it is thin, it will be more broken during production grinding and cutting, so the artificial crystal glass water cup usually has a relatively thick wall thickness and is heavier to handle.


The surface brightness of the artificial crystal water cup, the transparency and cleanliness of the crystal are also higher than ordinary glass water cups, so the artificial crystal water cup will give people a crystal clear visual effect.At the same time, the artificial crystal has abandoned the radioactive elements and heavy metals of the natural water cup, so the artificial crystal water cup can be used with confidence and will not cause harm to the human body.
