Silica sand, also known as quartz sand, is composed mainly of silicon dioxide (SiO). It is a naturally occurring mineral that is commonly used in a variety of industries due to its properties like durability, high melting point with low iron content , customization and resistance to weathering. Here are some common uses and facts about silica sand:
Common Uses:
Glass Manufacturing: Silica sand is a primary raw material in the production of glass, including container glass, flat glass, and specialty glass.
Construction: It is used in concrete, mortar, and other construction materials, as well as for sandblasting.
Foundries: Silica sand is used in foundry molds and cores for casting metal parts.
Water Filtration: The sand is used in water filtration systems because of its ability to trap contaminants.
Oil & Gas Industry: It is used in hydraulic fracturing (fracking) to prop open fractures in shale rock to extract oil and natural gas.
Sports & Leisure: Silica sand is used in products like sandboxes, golf course bunkers, and artificial turf.
Properties:
Hardness: Silica sand is known for its hardness, typically ranking around 7 on the Mohs scale, which makes it useful for many industrial applications.
Grain Size: The grain size of silica sand varies, with smaller grains being used for things like glass and larger grains being used for sandblasting or filtration.
Color: It can vary in color, from white to tan or even pink, depending on impurities and iron content.
We manufacture snow white silica quartz powder having purity of more than SiO2 99%.Our product has more than 92% whiteness as well as available in 100mesh, 200mesh and 300 mesh.Silica sand powder is used in ceramic applications such as body, engobe and glaze composition.It is also used in the paint, foundry and other industries.
Quartz Powder has natural crystalline structure and has excellent whiteness & brightness. It is inert to acid, alkalis & chemicals. It gives good abrasion resistance. All these grades are available in different mesh size LIKE 200 MESH, 300MESH 500 MESH& the particle size would be in mesh or microns as per customer requirements.
White quartz powder is a fine, high-purity material derived from quartz crystals, known for its excellent chemical stability, hardness, and versatility. It is widely used in industries such as ceramics, glass manufacturing, and foundries due to its high silica content and smooth, consistent texture. In ceramics, white quartz powder is used to enhance the strength and durability of tiles, porcelain, and sanitary ware. In glass production, it contributes to the formation of clear, strong glass by acting as a key raw material.
Additionally, it is used in paints, coatings, and adhesives to improve texture and provide a smooth finish. White quartz powder is also utilized in construction for cement and concrete applications, providing improved structural integrity. Its purity and fine particle size make it an essential ingredient across a variety of industrial applications.
