FIELD: chemistry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to marble chips, method of making said chips and artificial marble made from said chips. The marble chips are made from hardening a polymer composition which contains an acrylic monomer which forms cross bonds, and binding substance selected from a group consisting of halogenated urethane acrylate, halogenated epoxy acrylate and a mixture of said compounds. The method of obtaining the marble chips involves preparation of a polymer composition by adding an acrylic monomer, which forms cross bonds, to the binding substance, hardening the polymer composition and crushing the hardened article.
EFFECT: artificial marble containing marble chips disclosed by the invention may have appearance and texture similar to that of synthetic stone, as well as good thermal processability and mouldability, which are advantages of acrylic artificial marble.
