Quartz Powder

Quartz Powder, also known as silica powder, is a fine powder form of quartz, a naturally occurring mineral composed of silicon dioxide (SiO₂). It is one of the most abundant and widely used minerals in various industries due to its physical and chemical properties.

Key Features:
  • High Purity: Contains up to 99.5% or more silicon dioxide.

  • Hardness: Ranks 7 on the Mohs scale, making it very durable.

  • Chemical Inertness: Resistant to most acids and chemicals.

  • Thermal Stability: Performs well under high temperatures.

  • White or Off-White Color: Enhances the appearance of products.

Applications:
  1. Glass Industry: Main raw material for manufacturing glass.

  2. Ceramics: Used in the production of tiles, sanitaryware, and tableware.

  3. Paints & Coatings: Acts as a filler to improve durability and texture.

  4. Construction: Mixed in cement, adhesives, and grouts.

  5. Electronics: Used in the semiconductor industry due to its purity.

  6. Refractories: Used as a component in refractory bricks and castables.

  7. Rubber & Plastics: Improves strength and resistance in polymers.

Advantages:
  • Enhances mechanical strength and durability of end products.

  • Improves thermal resistance.

  • Low oil absorption and good dispersion in mixtures.

  • Cost-effective filler material in many industrial processes.
