How would I avoid textures being blurred when mapped to a TriangleMesh?

I am making a game using JavaFX and the Fxyz library. I have chunks which are made of Point3D's, these points are then passed to a ScatterMesh and that is used to generate a TriangleMesh so I can map textures to it. Which is what the below code does:
//Cube object extends Point3D
private final List<Cube> chunk = new ArrayList<>();
private TriangleMesh mesh;
/**
* Iterates through a chunks points and creates a chunk mesh based on which points are active.
*/
public void updateMesh() {
//Retrieving active vertices that should be rendered
List<Cube> cubes = new ArrayList<>();
for (Cube value : chunk) {
if (value.isActive()) {
cubes.add(value);
}
}
//Mesh creation
if (cubes.size() > 0) {
List<Point3D> pCubes = new ArrayList<>(cubes);
//Defining block texture atlas
PhongMaterial mat = new PhongMaterial();
mat.setDiffuseMap(new Image("file:src/main/resources/textures.png"));
//Scatter mesh to be converted to triangle mesh
ScatterMesh scatter = new ScatterMesh(pCubes, 1);
scatter.setMarker(MarkerFactory.Marker.CUBE);
//Triangle mesh creation
mesh = (TriangleMesh) scatter.getMeshFromId("scatter").getMesh();
mesh.setVertexFormat(VertexFormat.POINT_TEXCOORD);
float[] newTex = { //512x512 image file with a 16x16 texture
0f, 0f, //upper left corner
0f, 0.03125f,
0.03125f, 0.03125f, //lower right corner
0.03125f, 0f,
};
//sets texture coords for faces. Every 12 face elements = 2 triangular
//faces = 1 square of a cube, see trianglemesh docs
for (int i = 1; i < mesh.getFaces().size(); i += 12) {
for (int j = 0; j < cubes.size(); j++) {
//every other element in face array is a texture coordinate.
if (cubes.get(j).getType().equals(BlockType.DEFAULT)) {
//triangle1
mesh.getFaces().set(i, 0);
mesh.getFaces().set(i + 2, 1);
mesh.getFaces().set(i + 4, 3);
//triangle2
mesh.getFaces().set(i + 6, 3);
mesh.getFaces().set(i + 8, 1);
mesh.getFaces().set(i + 10, 2);
} else {
mesh.getFaces().set(i, 0);
mesh.getFaces().set(i + 2, 0);
mesh.getFaces().set(i + 4, 0);
mesh.getFaces().set(i + 6, 0);
mesh.getFaces().set(i + 8, 0);
mesh.getFaces().set(i + 10, 0);
}
}
}
mesh.getTexCoords().setAll(newTex);
scatter.setId("scatter");
setCache(true);
setDrawMode(DrawMode.FILL);
setCullFace(CullFace.BACK);
setMesh(mesh);
setMaterial(mat);
}
}
The resulting mesh view looks very blurry and the square faces have transparent gaps in between them if you look closely, is there any way to improve this?:
