Quartz in industrial applications
Quartz is a naturally occurring mineral composed of silica. When selected or prepared for professional use, it may be described as industrial quartz.
What is industrial quartz sand?
Industrial quartz sand is a granular material containing a significant proportion of quartz grains. Characteristics may vary in particle size, colour, composition, fine content and consistency.
Quartz sand and silica sand
Quartz is a mineral. Silica sand is a granular silica-rich material commonly composed mainly of quartz grains. The terms are related but do not always describe the same commercial product.
Why particle size matters
Particle size may influence mixing, flow, packing, processing behaviour and finished-product appearance.
Possible uses
Depending on its characteristics, industrial quartz sand may be considered for construction materials, selected ceramic uses, mineral formulations, technical surfaces and other industrial processes.
Preparing an enquiry
Provide the intended use, required form, particle size, volume, packaging, destination and requested analysis.
