Quartz and Its
Physical Properties
Quartz is also known as
Silicon Dioxide having the chemical formula SiO2. It is
most common as well as most abundant mineral that is available no the
earth. It can be effortlessly found in approximately all geological
environment and is a component of every type of rock. There are
different types of quartz available such as:
- Macrocrystalline:
It is an individual crystal, which is visible only to the unaided
eye.
- Microcrystalline or
Cryptodrystalline: The aggregates of the crystal are visible
under high magnification only.
The cryptocrystalline
quartz is generally called Chalcedony. The above mentioned varieties
can be translucent but mostly they are opaque. Few other varieties of
quartz are as follows:
|

Usage Areas of Quartz
The best quality Quartz
offered by us receives wide appreciation for its quality from
different domains. These usage areas or domains are glass industry,
abrasives, refractory, and metallurgy. Each of these usage areas is
detailed below:
Quartz and Glass Sand
(Silica Sand) are wide used in the production of transparent,
colored, translucent and clear glass in the forms of sheets or
glassware. Ideally, the size of sand grains used in glass production
is between 40 to 80 mesh (BSS).
Sands that are crushed
from sandstone and quartzite are used in the the development of
sand-paper, abrasive cloth and other products.
Silica bricks are
manufactured using quartz, quartzite, sandstone, and other siliceous
rocks lime mica schists.
Quartz and quartzite have
common usage in the production of ferro-silicon; to manufacture
silicon steel. The specifications of quartz as well as quartzite that
are required in manufacturing of ferro-silicon are cited below:
|
