Product Description
We provide Silica Sand which is used for glass, paints industry, chemicals, and mix in concrete. The offered Silica Sand is basically produced by crushing sand stone or quartzite of open texture, and washing and grading it to yield requisite grain distribution. Our quality controllers test this product on various defined parameters in order to offer perfect range at clients end. We are giving this silica sand in several packaging options as per customer choices. This is also demanded in water treatment plant due to its precise pH value, high effectiveness.
Versatile Grain Sizes for Varied ApplicationsOur silica sand is customizable with grain sizes ranging from 0.1 mm to 5.0 mm, ensuring suitability for applications like glass production, water filtration, foundry work, and construction. Whether you need fine or coarse particles, we tailor the supply according to your specific industry standards.
Consistent Quality and High PurityWith a purity exceeding 99% SiO2 and minimal impurities, our silica sand promises consistent performance. The acid solubility is less than 1%, and moisture content is kept under 0.5%, guaranteeing stability and reliability in demanding environments.
Optimized Packaging and Reliable DeliveryWe offer flexible packaging options: 25 kg, 50 kg, or 1 MT jumbo bags, and can accommodate custom requirements. The silica sand is securely packed to maintain its properties during storage and transit, making it ideal for domestic and export markets.
FAQs of Silica Sand:
Q: How is silica sand with a grain size of 0.1 mm to 5.0 mm used in various industries?
A: Silica sand within this grain size range is widely used in glass manufacturing for quality clarity, foundries for casting molds, water filtration systems for efficient particle removal, construction for strength enhancement, and ceramics for improved finish and durability.
Q: What benefits does high-purity silica sand (greater than 99% SiO2) offer?
A: High-purity silica sand ensures minimal impurities, which is crucial for sensitive applications such as glass making and electronics. It improves product strength, clarity, and thermal stability, meeting stringent quality requirements.
Q: Where is this silica sand sourced from and can it be shipped internationally?
A: Our silica sand is sourced and processed in India, adhering to strict quality standards. It is available for supply both domestically and internationally, with efficient logistics for export to ensure timely delivery.
Q: What packaging options are available for silica sand orders?
A: We provide flexible packaging options to fit different needs, including 25 kg bags, 50 kg bags, and 1 MT jumbo bags. Custom packaging solutions can also be arranged as per specific application or transportation requirements.
Q: How does the low acid solubility and low water absorption of this sand benefit industrial processes?
A: Low acid solubility (<1%) and water absorption (<0.5%) ensure the sand maintains its integrity and does not react or degrade in harsh industrial environments, making it ideal for consistent, long-term performance.
Q: What is the recommended process for using silica sand in water filtration systems?
A: Select a grain size suitable for the filtration rate needed, then layer the silica sand within the filter setup. Its angular to rounded shape ensures efficient trapping of particulates while maintaining high flow rates.
Q: When should silica sand with high refractoriness under load (>1650C) be preferred?
A: This property makes the sand suitable for high-temperature applications such as refractory linings and foundry molds, where thermal stability and resistance to deformation are critical for safe, effective operation.
