Carbon Crystal Plate Products: Technology Empowered Versatile Space Innovation Materials
1、 Definition and core technology of carbon crystal plate
Carbon crystal board is a high-tech board made of carbon fiber, graphite and other carbon element materials as the core, compounded with polymer resin. Its core technology originates from the carbon crystal heating principle - generating far-infrared radiation through the movement of carbon atoms, while also possessing characteristics such as high strength, lightweight, and corrosion resistance. According to different functions, it is divided into decorative carbon crystal panels (focusing on aesthetic design) and functional carbon crystal panels (integrating heating, sound insulation, antibacterial and other functions), with a thickness of usually 3-12mm. The surface can be simulated with wood grain, stone grain, metal and other textures through processes such as film coating, spraying, embossing, etc., to meet the needs of all scenes.

4、 Selection and Installation Guide for Carbon Crystal Plates
（1） Key points for purchasing
1. Clarify the priority of requirements:
-Heating is the main focus: choose products with a heating efficiency of ≥ 98% and a far-infrared radiation rate of ≥ 85%, and pay attention to the power per square meter (recommended 100-150W/square meter).
-Decoration oriented: check the clarity of texture (such as synchronized wood grain embossing technology) and color fastness (light fastness ≥ level 4).
2. Qualification verification:
-Heating products need to check the 3C certification and PTC heating element testing report; Antibacterial products require a CMA certified antibacterial testing report.
3. Sample testing:
-Heating plate: Conduct an electrical test to determine the heating rate (preferably with a temperature difference of ≥ 10 ℃ within 15 minutes) and surface temperature uniformity (temperature difference ≤ 2 ℃).
-Decorative panel: Use a key to scratch the surface (with a hardness of ≥ 2H and no traces), and perform a water absorption test with a water drop rate of ≤ 0.1%.
（2） Installation process
1. Grassroots treatment:
-Wall/floor flatness ≤ 3mm/2m, moisture content<8%; The old ceramic tile surface can be directly installed (ensuring adhesion), while the wooden floor requires the removal of the keel.
2. Special installation of heating plate:
-Laying insulation layer: First lay XPS extruded board (thickness 20-30mm), seal the joints with tape to reduce heat loss downwards.
-Installation of carbon crystal panels: Lay according to the design layout, reserve 2mm heat dissipation joints between the heating plates, connect the electrodes with copper foil tape, and connect to the temperature control system.
-Covering decorative layer: thin stone or floor leather can be selected, with a total thickness of ≤ 15mm to ensure heat dissipation efficiency.
3. Universal installation (non heating type):
-Buckle type: Starting from the corner of the wall, the first board is fixed to the base with expansion screws, and the subsequent boards are sequentially inserted. Special corner pieces are used for the internal and external corners.
-Adhesive type: The wall and back of the board are double-sided coated with adhesive (using C2TES1 grade ceramic tile adhesive), and after being left to air for 5 minutes, they are pressed and fixed to avoid bearing weight for 24 hours.
（3） Maintenance suggestions
-Heating plate: Check the calibration of the thermostat every year, preheat it for 2 hours before the first use in winter, and eliminate poor contact in the circuit.
-Decorative panels: Use a slightly damp cloth for daily cleaning and avoid using strong acids or alkalis; Apply sealant to the joint every 2 years to prevent moisture from seeping in.
