Silica Sand
Silica sand (SiO2), is the main raw material used in glass production. which forms the base of the glass when melted at high temperatures. The purity and consistency of the silica sand are vital to ensure that the final glass product has the desired properties, such as transparency, strength and durability. Properties that make silica sand an ideal material for glass manufacturing include its high melting point, chemical stability and low thermal expansion.
These properties contribute to the production of high-quality glass that can withstand various environmental conditions without compromising its structural integrity. Fiberglass is a type of glass product consisting of thin strands of glass fibers. It is used in a variety of applications, such as insulation, automotive components and sporting goods.
The production of glass fiber depends on the ability of silica sand to melt at high temperatures to form a viscous material that can be stretched into thin fibers.
Glass Industry
Silica sand forms the primary component of many types of glass, to the extent that its own chemical purity determines the color, clarity and strength of the glass. This is before ground silica is used in fiberglass and reinforcing glass fiber’s
Metal Casting
Ferrous and non-ferrous, where metal parts ranging from engine blocks to sink taps are cast in a sand and clay mold to produce the desired shape. A high-fusion point of 1,760˚C helps generate stable cores and molds and prevents interaction with catalysts and binding materials
Construction
Sand is the primary component in many building products. Flooring, mortars, cement, roofing shingles, asphalt, & other industrial materials all use silica to improve durability, structural integrity. · Flat glass, container glass, specialty glass, fiberglass
