Discover Quality in Every Grain
Glass Industry
Silica sand is the major raw material for almost all common commercial glass production, comprising 70 to 75 percent by weight of furnace batches in addition to other raw materials. Due to its major weightage in glass batches, the silica sand quality in terms of grain size and chemical composition is quite vital to deliver good quality product. The quality of glass sand primarily depends on the quality and type of glass to be produced, which includes containers, float, borosilicate, fiber, solar, etc.In the manufacturing of glass, all three attributes—chemical, mineralogical, and physical properties—are essential in determining the suitability of silica sand.
